The Permissibility of Divorcing a Pregnant Woman
Sheikh MushtΔq Adh-Dhali'ee hafidahullah:
Divorcing a pregnant woman is permissible and unobjectionable, as it falls under the category of Ψ·ΩΨ§Ω Ψ§ΩΨ³ΩΩ (legitimate form of divorce), not Ψ·ΩΨ§Ω Ψ§ΩΨ¨Ψ―ΨΉΩ (innovative or illegitimate form). Thus, it is allowed to divorce a pregnant woman just as it is allowed to divorce other women. What is prohibited is divorcing a woman during her menstruation, or divorcing a woman in a period of purity in which the husband has had sexual intercourse with herβsuch cases constitute Ψ·ΩΨ§Ω Ψ¨Ψ―ΨΉΩ. As for divorcing a pregnant woman, there is no prohibition or issue associated with it, and pregnancy has no bearing on the permissibility of divorce. And AllΔh knows best.
