as salam alykom
Umm what u posted is just exactly what I know. I ve been looking at the fatwa shaunee posted I even went to the site to look at it in Arabic. But no luck as yet.
Look at the fatwa with me,
<b>3. If her reversion to Islam occurs after the consummation of marriage, and the period of waiting expires, she is allowed to wait for him to embrace Islam even if that period happens to be a lengthy one. Once he does so and reverts to Islam, then their marriage is deemed valid and correct.
</b>
If the underlined part means anything it means that she has to be divorced and spend the waiting period. Am I not right? or fasting affected my ability to comprehend????
Then look here also:
Fourth: According to the four main schools of jurisprudence, it is forbidden for the wife to remain with her husband, or indeed to allow him conjugal rights, once her period of waiting has expired. However, some scholars see that it is for her to remain with him, allowing him to enjoy full conjugal rights, if he does not prevent her from exercising her religion and she has hope in him to revert to Islam.
Also these two opions are totally the opposite I am aware that once the Messenger had someone asking him about a word he uttered telling his wife she is haram for him for the lenght of Dahr. Four people interpreted the period of dahr differently, one said a year, whole life and soforth. The Messenger adviced him to take the easiest.
All my aim is that I am concerned with what any of us is typing or telling others. Specially in such situations. I mean other reverts may come and use the posts, u know what i mean??? what do u think???????
