Shaykh Ebrahim DesaiRead

I really in desperate situation. 3 years ago due to some deep misunderstanding my convert wife got upset and due to nature of our issue and under her non muslim faimly pressure she filed a civil divorce in USA. Due to some immigration and legal issues at time under pressure and advice of lawyer our civil divorce was finalized. My wife was thinking i married her for immigration. However I did told her if you think that is for the benefits then I will not divorce you islamically. She was insisting to give her islamic divorce for around 2 months but I was explaining her that my intention was real for marriage and some how all the misunderstanding were cleared . Honeslty we both read a fatwa this forum at that time which says court divorce is not acceptable in sharia. Also we confirmed with  some knowlegeable person . They said since you have accepted divorce under legal pressure as well as you did not give her divorce islamically you are still married. We got back within 3 menstural cycle without any proper nickah and now have 2 kinds … But I am still kind of confused .. in what is the validity of my marriage Please guide me … under the legal pressure I have to accept court divorce but me and my wife still under this thinking that we are still islmically married. … we got back in relation before three menstual cyle .. Please advice us in details   Jazakallah Khair

  I live in USA. I have a question regarding civil divorce. My wife left my house with our 6 month old baby and wont come back. She moved to a different city but I dont know where exactly she is living right now. I tried multiple times to reconcile and asked her over the phone to come back but she refused and she wants to go back to our home country Pakistan. Even my parents tried to talk to her parents back home in Pakistan but her father humiliated and insulted my parents and refused to do any reconcilation unless I go back to Pakistan. Her family is very rich and influential and if I go to Pakistan, they will never let me see my child and probably even get me arrested on false charges. I dont want to give her tallaq as it will not be good for our child. I want her to come back but she wont. I am planning to file a civil divorce in the court and serve her a notice so that she is forced to come back to my city. And then I can talk to her and reconcile and bring back home, because that will be in the best interest of our child.I have no intention however to give a complete divorce yet, I only want to file a divorce so that se leaves her arrogance and think about reconciling with me. So my question is if I file for a dicorve and serve her a notice to come to court, will it be considered a full divorce Islamically? Once she comes here and after we have worked out our differences I am planning to take back the case. please let me know in light of Shairah.
