The harms of women attending university

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I am 19 years old and I got nikaah with a family friend. It was arranged. We both are married islamically but don’t plan on getting a “rukhsati” or living together for the next 3-4 years until I finish my university. So nothings really changed for me, I still live with my family and he lives with his but we’re married islamically. However, I regret my decision. We don’t really click and I am not happy with him. I regret my decision a lot. I feel like I’m too young and I barely know myself. I want to find myself and just be a normal 19 year old girl going to university. I brought up divorce to my parents and they aren’t taking it well at all. They are threatening me and abusing me for even thinking about disgracing them like that. I don’t know what to do. should I go through with it and be unhappy for the reason of my life? or should I take a stand and risk getting disowned?

Bismillaah

A: When a woman commences an unnatural life venturing out of the house to take up studies then her entire psychology and reasoning is corrupted. The right seems to be wrong and the wrong seems to be appealing. I suggest that the best thing you could do for your life and yourself is that with immediate effect terminate your studies and stay at home. Insha Allah you will begin to see the wisdom and goodness of staying at home and things will fall into place with time thereafter.

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