Following are just a few examples in this regard:

i)His modesty Modesty is one of the attributes of good conduct for which Allaah rewards his servants. Abu Hurayrah may Allaah be pleased with him narrated, “Allaah will elevate those who worship Him in humility.” [Ibn Maajah] Modesty in fact, was an order from Allaah to the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ). Allaah Says (what means): “And lower your wing to the believers who follow you.” [Quran, 2:215] Thus, the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) obeyed Allaah, and attained an unsurpassable degree of modesty. This was seen during his Hajj on different occasions: He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) refused to receive any special treatment as he insisted on drinking from the same basin as everybody else, although people were dipping their hands into the water. “I don’t want it,” he sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) said when they offered to bring him clean water, “Give me some of the water that people are drinking.” [Al-Bukhaari] He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) also allowed Usaamah Ibn Zayd may Allaah be pleased with him to ride behind him in public from ‘Arafah to Muzdalifah. [Muslim] He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) stopped to listen to a woman from the public to answer her question. [Muslim] ii) His mercy During the Hajj, the Prophet’s sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) mercy for the people can be seen on many occasions: The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) ordered those who did not offer Hady to end their state of Ihraam completely; this would permit them to have sex with their wives, to be dressed in their normal clothes, and to wear perfume. This was an act of mercy for the nation and alleviation of their burden. [Muslim] He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) combined Asr (afternoon) and Thuhr (noon) prayers at ‘Arafah, [Al-Bukhaari], and delayed his prayers when he per-formed Ifaadhah (moved) to Muzdalifah, [Al-Bukhaari], thereby making it easier for the people to perform the rituals. Indeed it would have been difficult for the pilgrims to dismount and unpack several times. In so doing, the pilgrims were able to halt their camels and put their belongings at the same spot where they spent the night. The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) gave permission to the weak to perform Ifaadhah, (to leave) from Muzdalifah ahead of the rest of the pilgrims at night, right after the moon had set. Thus, they were able to perform their rituals easily and comfortably on Slaughter Day before the others. [Al-Bukhaari] At the time when pilgrims went to spend the night in Mina, the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) permitted his uncle Al-’Abbaas may Allaah be pleased with him to stay in Makkah to continue providing people with drinking water. [At-Tirmithi] Further, he sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) allowed shepherds to cast their Jimaar (pebbles) in one day instead of two after Slaughter Day. [Muslim] Being merciful to his people, the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) would sometimes perform the rituals in a less favorable manner than they should ideally be performed. For example, he sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) performed Tawaaf on his camel back and touched the Black Stone with a stick instead of kissing it or touching it with his hand. He did not perform Tawaaf or Sa’y on foot, which would have been better because he did not want people to be turned away or get hurt in his presence. [Muslim] iii) His magnanimity The good deeds of the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) as leader of the pilgrims during the Hajj were countless and evident for all around. Here are just few examples: The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was so generous in giving alms and charities, that he gave away the one hundred badanas (sacrificial camels)—including their meat, hides and coverings. [Muslim] He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) also donated in other charities on many occasions. [Al-Bukhaari] The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was so kind to the weak that he mentioned them in his exhortations. [Ahmad] Committed to saving his people, the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) invoked Allaah at ‘Arafah and Muzdalifah, to accept them and to forgive them their sins. [Ahmad] When asked by a pilgrim to invoke Allaah on his behalf, he offered a general invocation and said, “May Allaah forgive you all.” [At-Tirmithi] He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) spoke clearly and repeatedly to the pilgrims, giving them general information but without going into details. He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) dealt with the fundamentals of Islam, explained the grave sins and clarified some principles so that people would better understand them. [Al-Bukhaari] iv) His patience During his Hajj, the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) showed all of the three types of patience simultaneously. He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was most enduring in obeying Allaah’s commands and offering sacrifices. He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) did it in complete relaxation, tranquility and submissiveness to Allaah. [Al-Bukhaari] The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was a most religious, most knowledgeable and most observant of Allaah’s limits and never transgressed them. The patience and endurance he sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) exhibited when he led the pilgrims without any sign of complaint or resentment is indeed commendable. v) His responsibilities The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was keen on perfecting submission and surrender to Allaah, and on performing the Hajj rituals perfectly. He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was the leader of the pilgrims and in charge of their general unity and welfare. Additionally, he was the educator and guide of these massive crowds, teaching them good and warning them against evil. He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) was doing his utmost to convey his message and to explain Islamic rulings in a perfect manner. vi) His leniency The Prophet’s sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) leniency during the Hajj is exemplified on different occasions: He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) took shelter in the shade and moved between the scared sites on camel back. Had he done otherwise, it would have been difficult for the Muslims to follow his example. [Muslim] He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) also appeared publicly during the Hajj, so pilgrims had no difficulty in following in his footsteps and asking his opinion about whatever problems they had. [Abu Daawood] He sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) made matters easier for pilgrims, and never asked them to do anything beyond their capacity, whether in performing the rituals or in leading them and shouldering the responsibility for them. [Al-Bukhaari] Moreover, he sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) did not come near the Ka’bah after the Tawaaf of arrival until he had returned from ‘Arafah, [Abu Daawood], and settled in Mina on the Days of Tashreeq. This leniency is clearly shown when he did not go to Haram until he was ready to leave Makkah. [Al-Bukhaari] Further, he sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) ordered his companions may Allaah be pleased with them to be kind to themselves. Upon seeing a man walking and leading his badana (sacrificial camel), the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) said to him “Ride on it.” “It is a badana (a camel intended as a ritual sacrifice),” the man replied.” “Ride on it, woe to you,” the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) said (woe to you) on the second or third time. [Muslim]

Moreover, Zakaat is an obligatory act because it is one of the pillars of Islam: The Prophet said: “Islam was built upon five (pillars): `The testimony that none has the right to be worshipped but Allaah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allaah; the establishment of the prayer; paying the obligatory charity (Zakaat); pilgrimage to the House (Hajj to the Ka’bah in Makkah) and fasting (the month of) Ramadhaan.”‘ [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]

Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas: The Prophet said. “May Allah bestow His Mercy on the
mother of Ishmael! Had she not hastened (to fill her water-skin with water from the Zam-zam well). Zam-zam would have been a stream flowing on the surface of the earth.” Ibn ‘Abbas further added. “(The Prophet) Abraham brought Ishmael and his mother (to Mecca) and she was suckling Ishmael and
she had a water-skin with her.’ Volume 4. Book 55. Number 582

The superiority of the Companions of the Prophet (may Allah bestow upon him peace and blessings)

Quran and Prophetic narrations of the superiority of the companions of the Prophet (may Allah bestow upon him peace and blessings)

“God has turned towards the Prophet and the Emigrants and the Helpers who
followed him in the hour of difficulty, after the hearts of a part of them well-nigh swerved aside; then He turned towards them; surely He is Gentle to
them, and All-compassionate.”The Repentance 9:117

“God was well pleased with the believers when they were swearing oath to you under the tree, and He knew what was in their hearts, so He sent down tranquillity upon them, and rewarded them with a manifest victory.”
Victory 48:18

“And the Outstrippers, the first of the Emigrants and the Helpers, and those who followed them in good-doing — God will be well-pleased with them and they are well-pleased with Him; and He has prepared for them gardens underneath which rivers flow, therein to dwell forever and ever; that is the mighty triumph.”The Repentance 9:100

“It is for the poor emigrants, who were expelled from their habitations and their possessions, seeking bounty from God and good pleasure, and helping God and His Messenger; those – they are the truthful ones. And those who made their dwelling in the abode, and in belief, before them; love whosoever has emigrated to them, not finding in their breasts any need for what they have been given, and preferring others above themselves, even though poverty be their portion. And whoso is guarded against the avarice of his own soul, those – they are the prosperous.”
Exile 59:8-9

“God has sent down the fairest discourse as a Book, consimilar in its oft- repeated, whereat shiver the skins of those who fear their Lord; then their skins and their hearts soften to the remembrance of God. That is God’s guidance, whereby. He guides whomsoever He will; and whomsoever God leads astray, no guide has he.”The Troops 39:23

“Only those believe in Our signs who, when they are reminded of them, fall down prostrate and proclaim the praise of their Lord, not waxing proud. Their sides shun their couches as they call on their Lord in fear and hope; and they expend of that We have provided them.”The Prostration 32:15-16

“Of the believers are men who are true to that which they covenanted with Allah. Some of them have paid their vow by death (in battle), and some of them still are waiting; and they have not altered in the least; That Allah may reward the true men for their truth, and punish the hypocrites if He will, or relent toward them (if He will). Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.”
The clans 33:23-24

It was narrated from ‘Abd-Allah ibn Mas’ud that the Prophet (may Allah bestow peace and blessings upon him) said, “The best of the people are my generation, then those who come after them, then those who come after them.”Bukhari 2652 and Muslim 2533

Three generations mentioned here the companions, the successors and the followers of the successors

The Prophet (may Allah bestow peace and blessing upon him) said, “When my
Companions are mentioned then refrain.” (Tabarani)This is the best policy when the companions are mentioned in an disrespectful manner

Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bestow upon him peace and blessings) said, “Do not abuse my Companions, do not curse my companions. I swear by Him who possess my soul, that if any of you were to spend gold equal to(mountain of) Uhud in charity, it would not equal a few handfuls of one of them or even
half of that.” (Bukhari 5 and Muslim 221)

The Prophet (may Allah bestow peace and blessings upon him) said, “The sign
of faith is love of the Ansar and the sign of hypocrisy is the hatred of Ansar.” Bukhari and Muslim.

The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bestow upon him peace and blessings) said, “Whoever abuses my Companions, upon them is the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people.” (Tabarani)

Abdullah ibn Mughaffal narrates that the Messenger of God (may Allah bestow upon him peace and blessings) said, “Allah, Allah, refrain from using bad language about my Companions! Allah, Allah, refrain from using bad language about my Companions! Do not make them a target of your attacks after me! Whoever loves them loves them on account for his love of me; whoever hates them; hates them on account of his hatred to me. Whoever hurts them hurts me; whoever hurts me “hurts” Allah.” (Tirmidhi 58, Ibn Hibban 9:189, Imam Ahmed 5:57)

The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bestow upon him peace and blessings) said, “The Stars are a means of security for the heavens. When they are scattered, what was promised from the heavens fall. I am the means of security for the companions. When I leave the world, what was promised for my companions will befall them. My Companions are a means of security for my nation. When they leave the world, what was promised for my nation befall them.” (Muslim 207)

The Prophet (may Allah bestow upon him peace and blessings) said, “Allah
chose me and choose for me companions then made from them ministers from the helpers and the Asshar (son in laws); whoever curses them has the curse of Allah, the angels and the people upon them. And Allah will not accept anything from them on the day of judgement.” (Al-Haytami in Al-Mujama Az-Zawaid, Tabarani and Al-Hakim)

These are some Quranic passages and Prophetic narrations that speak about the virtue of the Companions. This is by no means the only list, this is just an
attempt to remind our hearts about their virtues. Individual narrations about the virtues of particular Companions would be enough to fill this blog upImam Ahmad said, “If you see anyone speaking ill of the Companions of the
Messenger of Allah, doubt his Islam.”

The 99 Names of Allah,(Arabic: أسماء الله الحسنى‎ ʾasmāʾ allāh al-Ḥusnā), are the Names of God (specifically, attributes) by which Muslims regard God and which are traditionally maintained as described in the Qur’ān, and Sunnah, amongst other places.There is, according to hadith, a special group of 99 names but no enumeration of them. Thus the exact list is not agreed upon, and the Names of God (as adjectives, word constructs, or otherwise) exceed 99 in the Qur’ān and Sunnah.

The term Allāh is derived from a contraction of the Arabic definite article al- “the” and ʼilāh “deity, god” to al-lāh meaning “the [sole] deity, God” (ho theos monos). Cognates of the name “Allāh” exist in other Semitic languages, including Hebrew and Aramaic.Biblical Hebrew mostly uses the plural form (but functional singular) Elohim. The corresponding Aramaic form is ʼĔlāhā אֱלָהָא in Biblical Aramaic and ʼAlâhâ ܐܰܠܳܗܳܐ in Syriac

“Allah” is the same word used by Christian and Jewish Arabs in the Bible, before Islam came

In Arabic, Allah means literally the one God.  It is pretty easy to understand how different languages give the same thing different names.  Is it that unusual to hear Muslims call God another name, like “Allah”, while you call him God or Lord?  Some people have no minds; in the last decade, a growing phenomenon was seen on the internet and in published literature

Allah is said to be the “moon god” that Arabs worshiped, and Kaaba (The Muslims holiest place on Earth) is His temple.  The evidence for this theory is the crescent that appears on the top of many mosques all over the world plus a fabricated picture of the “moon god”

A “miracle” baby has brought a kind of mystical hope to people in Russia’s mostly Muslim southern fringe who are increasingly desperate in the face of
Islamist violence

Pinkish in color and several centimeters high, the Koranic verse “Be thankful or grateful to Allah” was printed on the infant’s right leg in clearly legible Arabic script this week, religious leaders said

Verses from Quran appear every few weeks on Russian Muslim baby,bringing
joy and hope to people in Russia‘s mostly Muslim southern fringe

Al Hamdulillah, many hundreds of Muslims lined up all week in bright sun just for a quick peek at the 9 month old Ali Yakubov

Religious leaders verified the claims and even visiting foreign journalists later saw a remaining letter on his leg

Look around yourselves
Can’t you see this wonder
Spreaded infront of you
The clouds floating by
The skies are clear and blue
Planets in the orbits
The moon and the sun
Such perfect harmony

Let’s start question in ourselves
Isn’t this proof enough for us
Or are we so blind
To push it all aside..
No..

We just have to
Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds
If we just look bright to see the signs
We can’t keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise
Take us in the best way
(Allah..)
Guide us every single day..
(Allah..)
Keep us close to You
Until the end of time..

Look inside yourselves
Such a perfect order
Hiding in yourselves
Running in your veins
What about anger love and pain
And all the things you’re feeling
Can you touch them with your hand?
So are they really there?

Lets start question in ourselves
Isn’t this proof enough for us?
Or are we so blind
To push it all aside..?
No..

We can’t keep hiding from the truth
Let it take us by surprise

Muhammad  is the messenger of Allah in Islam. He holds a massage without hesitation.

It was in Mecca that relatively obscure citizen of forty, Muhammad, a decline of the clan began to preach a new religion. In 610 AD, Mohammed revealed to his closest relatives that he had been asked by the voice of God to recite a new message to the world. He initially kept private message among his closest relatives, three years later, however, they would persuade him to continue his recitation to a wide audience. These lectures, which would later come to consider Muhammad to be the voice of God through, would form the heart and soul of Islam: the Qur’an, or “recitation”.

   Muhammad considered himself a “messenger of God” or rasul Allah-a messenger of God in Islam does not carry a message to the people of God, a messenger sends a message that is new and refreshing for Humanity . It was like a God that Rasul Muhammad’s life would survive. In his forty years of life before the recitation, the only sources available are oral traditions that build life to start as part of its great vocation.

   We know it came from a relatively poor clan, the Hashim, who was, in fact, the clan that led the opposition to the wealthy merchant clans. He was born after the death of his father, it meant he could not inherit any property from his father when he grew up in poverty. He became the servant and the age of twenty-five married a rich widow, Khadija.

   Poverty by Muhammad in his youth and social tensions in Mecca, with bitter divisions resulting from the unequal distribution of wealth among the clans became important aspects of the message of Islam. Although the message of the Quran is universal, it is also very historically specific in its content and the traditions surrounding its content. The message that Muhammad delivered was intended for very specific circumstances and many revelations to respond to specific concerns addressed to Muhammad. Regarding the distribution of wealth and poverty of Muhammad, one of the key messages of the Qur’an is the emphasis on material well-being and the responsibility of the whole community for the well-being of all its members.

 Although it was supported by his clan, and although his message was fundamentally opposed to the attitude and practices of wealthy clans, Muhammad seems to have tried to make some peace with these clans in the first decade. It was this attempt to make peace than the Satanic Verses incident took place. Seeking Accommodation, Muhammad appears to have sought to reconcile his new faith with the traditional religion of Mecca by incorporating other gods, three gods of relgion Makkah Al-Lat, al-Uzza and Manat. It was later revealed to Muhammad that these Koranic verses had been sent to him by Satan and have been disappointments. When Muhammad retracted the Satanic Verses that the richest clans turned bitterly against him and no longer attempt reconciliation.

   The opening came with the death of Abu Talib in 619, the Hashemite clan has fallen under the leadership of Abu Lahab, who rejected Muhammad’s clan protection. That meant that we could do something for Mohammed and the clan would not seek revenge, all effects and purposes, Muhammad had fallen to the protection of the law. Muhammad desperately seeking protection under other clans, but they all refused.

   Then one day in 620, Muhammad had encountered six men from Yathrib. These men were so impressed.
   In Medina, he was greeeted enthusiastically. Here, Muhammad was partly called to mediate disputes between rival clans. And it is here that the recitation profoundly changed. While Mecca revelations concerned themselves with ethics and the spiritual, the Medina verses are more concerned with ethical issues and policies. While the Meccan verses address the issue of how to make his life right with God, the revelations of Medina address the issue of building and maintaining a community with a common bond of religion.

   It was also in the years to Medina that Muhammad turned his religion out of Judaism and Jews. In Mecca in the early years in Medina, Muhammad sought to integrate Jews into the recitations and the community of Islam. The tensions in Medina, however, translated into a series of denial of Judaism and Jews. The final blow came when Muhammad, prayer, suddenly had a verse revealed to him that the believers should not pray in Jerusalem, but to Mecca. He then ordered his followers to turn completely around (Mecca is 180 degrees in the opposite direction of Jerusalem when you’re in Medina), symbolically, the move means that Islam had broken completely from Judaism.

   In both Islamic and Western worlds, there is much controversy about the attitude of Muhammad in Mecca. Whether or not he planned to go to war with Mecca, he became sooned engaged in guaranteeing a war between Medina and Mecca.

   It began with raids on Meccan trade caravans. At first these raids, raid.

As Mohammed brought various tribes and cities of the alliance, at first, he demanded that people recognize Islam and its role as a messenger of God. This was not normal political alliances, but tribal alliances. As the spread of Islam, the tribal nature would not admit non-Arabs in the same structure, non-Arabs allied themselves with Islam being a Mawali, or “client” of a tribe.

   But peace in Islamic Arabia was a peace to the surface. There was much opposition among the tribes along the Persian Gulf, for example, most of the tribes and clans were un-Islamic and Syrian tribes allied with the Byzantine Empire. The last two years of Muhammad’s life were largely devoted to cope with these internal threats to the peace of Islam.

   In his last year of life, Muhammad led a large pilgrimage or Hajj to the Ka’ba in Mecca. This gesture has given Islam the last of its fundamental obligations. Three months later he died.

“The Messenger of God never filled his stomach for three consecutive days until his death.” (Bukhari # 5059)
This shows that, for his dedication, although the Arabian Peninsula was under his control and that was the source of so much kindness for the people, the Prophet would sometimes not find enough food for him. His wife, Aisha said that the Prophet had bought food from a Jew who agree to pay a little later and gave his weapons as a guarantee. “(Bukhari # 2088)
This does not mean he could not get what he wanted for the rich would be placed in front of him in his mosque, but he would not budge from his seat until he distributed among all the poor and needy. Some of his companions were rich and they rushed to serve him and give the most precious things to him, but he spent all in the way of Allah to spread Islam. The Prophet gave up the riches of this world because he knew the reality of life, for he says: “The likeness of this world beyond is like one who has dipped his finger Inthe Ocean.

 It is one of the rules heavily in Islam (Divorce)
Islamic divorce is also known as a “divorce Talaq and allows a man to divorce his wife under Islamic rules. It is also possible for a woman to divorce her husband but the husband must accept and if not then it must go through the Islamic courts.

Islamic divorce is recognized in the United Kingdom, in certain circumstances. If an Islamic divorce is conducted in the United Kingdom then it will not be valid under British law. A divorce Talaq only valid in the United Kingdom if it was conducted in a country which recognizes Talaq divorce as a method of legally binding divorce. Talaq divorce is recognized in Bangladesh and Pakistan and, therefore, if both parties to the marriage had their habitual residence or domicile in Bangladesh or Pakistan and that is where the divorce took place, it would be recognized in the United Kingdom.

Islamic divorce in Bangladesh or Pakistan will be valid only if certain conditions are met. The husband must inform the President of the Council Chamber where the couple lives and must notify the spouse. After the period of iddat, twenty-six days after the marriage, the divorce will be finalized, unless the husband has decided not to divorce his wife.

Islam allows divorce if circumstances warrant or require. Islam has allowed divorce, nor regret, nor taste to recommend it. The Prophet of Islam said,

“Among lawful things, divorce is most hated by Allah.” (Reported in the book of tradition of Abu Daud).

Islam has not made it necessary that the grounds for divorce should be made public. He, however, does not mean that Islam views divorce lightly. In fact, the publicity of reasons can be a positive consequence. The reasons may not be pronounced, but real. On the other hand, the patterns can be identified and may actually be false. Islam does not also want to wash dirty linen in public or private matters before the court, except in exceptional circumstances. It is for this reason that the Court is a last resort in the Islamic regime of separation of husband and wife.

The Quran states that ground for divorce in very general terms,

“And if you fear that the two (husband and wife i. e) may not be able to keep the limits ordained by Allah, there is no blame on either of them if she redeems herself (from the bond of marriage) .. ” (2:229)

The wife may divorce her husband if this condition is stipulated in the contract of marriage. This type of divorce is called “delegated divorce (Talaq Taffiz). Marriage may be dissolved by mutual consent. This is called Khula in the technical language of Islamic law. Marriage may be dissolved by a judicial proceeding by the court on the compliant woman on the grounds previously explained.

One of the consequences of divorce is the beginning of the waiting period for women. This usually lasts three months. If a pregnancy, it lasts as long as pregnancy. The waiting period is essentially a probationary period during which reconciliation can be attempted. It is also necessary to establish whether the woman has conceived. It also allows time to plan the future.

Keeping the woman during the waiting period is the husband. The woman can not be evicted from his place of residence and can not in any way harass. These are moral as well as criminal.

After divorce, children remain in the custody of their divorced mother. However, the father must provide the cost of maintenance of young children through the products remain under the custody of the mother. (Ref: The Family Structure in Islam .
