Isn’t Divorcing Wife Abruptly An Injustice To Her?
This is the test of human beings not to abuse their authority and divine law. God has warned about it: وَإِذَا طَلَّقْتُمُ النِّسَاءَ فَبَلَغْنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَأَمْسِكُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ سَرِّحُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ ۚ وَلَا تُمْسِكُوهُنَّ ضِرَارًا لِّتَعْتَدُوا ۚ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ فَقَدْ ظَلَمَ نَفْسَهُ ۚ وَلَا تَتَّخِذُوا آيَاتِ اللَّهِ هُزُوًا And when you divorce women and they reach the end of their waiting period, either retain them with kindness or let them go with kindness. And never retain them with the intention of harming them so that in this manner you commit excesses against them. And [you should know that] whoever does this will only be unjust to his own soul. And do not make a mockery of God’s revelations۔ (2: 231)
