Question

I want to ask you about divorce in Islam. My husband said once "today if u go to work, you are faarigh from me". I want to ask if with farigh word does divorce take place?

Answer

In many communities the word farigh is used for divorce. If this is the case that it is used as divorce in your circles then a divorce will take place.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
