(he has not interacted with any non-mahram unlawfully, has had no other relationships other than his wife but feels that he can find someone better. The wife has not done anything wrong and there have not been any disputes).\"}]}","answer":"{\"ops\":[{\"insert\":\"Divorce is a serious matter in Islam, and while it is not haram to divorce without a specific reason, it is considered makruh (disliked). The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said, \\\"The most hated permissible thing to Allah is divorce.\\\" [\"},{\"attributes\":{\"link\":\"https://sunnah.com/ibnmajah:2018\"},\"insert\":\"Ibn Majah 2018\"},{\"insert\":\"]\\n\\nIf there is a valid reason for the divorce—such as significant challenges in her character, lack of chastity, or your fear of being unable to fulfill her rights—then divorce is permitted. Even if one's heart no longer feels inclined toward the spouse, this can also be considered a valid reason if emotional detachment hinders your ability to fulfill marital obligations.\\n\\nHowever, simply feeling that you could find someone \\\"better\\\" is a vague and subjective notion. Marriage in Islam is not solely about seeking perfection in a spouse but about building a life together based on mutual rights, love, and mercy. If your wife has done no wrong and there are no disputes, it’s essential to deeply reflect on what “better” means and whether it stems from unrealistic expectations or dissatisfaction that could be resolved within the current marriage.\\n\\nI would advise you to think deeply on this and pray Salat al-Istikhara (the prayer for guidance) before making a decision.\\n\\nMay Allah guide you to what is best for your deen, dunya, and akhirah.\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9ff10b76658b4c2329bc","tag":"Marriage: Divorce","count":24}],"createdOn":"2024-12-30T17:57:40.111Z"}
