The compensation, the formula and conditional khul

Islamic Fiqh > Marriage and family > Khul (compensatory divorce) > The compensation, the formula and conditional khul

Updated on 06 October 2026 at 10:50 PM

This continuation of the chapter on khul' first deals with khul' before the marriage is consummated, then with the fourth pillar of the khul' contract, the compensation (al-iwad), and its two issues: the unknown compensation and the compensation that lacks value. There follow the fifth pillar, the formula (as-sigha), and finally the question of suspending the khul' upon a condition and attaching it to a term, with the positions of the four schools and the classical references.
