Al-Iftaa House clarifies that the maintenance (nadq al-muta') for women who initiate divorce due to harm does not lapse and is considered her right since she is not consenting to the divorce or agreeing to it, especially if the divorce results from her suffering harm caused by her husband. The “muta” (compensatory payment given to the divorced woman after consummation) is money paid to the divorced woman to ease the psychological and social impact of separation. Its amount is determined based on the husband’s circumstances. The conditions for its obligation include that the divorce is not with the woman’s consent or is initiated by her without a valid reason. However, if the woman requests the divorce due to harm, her right to the “muta” remains valid. Some opinions consider “muta” to be recommended in cases of divorce where no dowry has been specified, but the fatwa confirms that if a woman requests divorce due to harm, this does not constitute her consent to the divorce; therefore, she is entitled to the “muta.”
