Abu Taubah – Divorce in Islam and How to Avoid It

About this lecture

In this episode of The Deen Show, Sheikh Abu Tawbah and host Eddie walk through the Islamic framework for handling marital conflict and, when necessary, divorce — covering the step-by-step process prescribed in the Quran and Sunnah. Key topics include the husband's obligations of kindness, the three stages before divorce (admonition, separation of beds, and arbitration), the rules of pronouncing divorce, and the *'iddah* waiting period. The overarching message is that Islam provides a complete, clear system for marriage and divorce, and that every effort should be made to preserve the family before parting ways.
