Assalamwalaikum, I want to ask you if after nikah a girl runs away with another man who is also married than does talaq happen?what if the girl wants talaq and the boy does not want to give talaq can she get talaq by herself?what will happen if the boy does not give talaq and they stay apart for a year will talaq happen then if the girl wants?
Answer:
(Fatwa: 283/255=D/1430)
Talaq will neither take place by eloping (running away) nor can the girl give herself talaq. The talaq cannot take place by staying apart also whether for a year or more. For getting talaq it is necessary for husband to give talaq.
