Is it permissible to drop the divorced woman's right to mut'ah (consolatory gift) and nafaqah (maintenance) if she requested the divorce in a moment of anger, and is she allowed to swear an oath that the divorce took place without her consent, this being after she was subjected to beating and humiliation?

If you did not agree with your husband to divorce in exchange for dropping some of your rights, then you have the rights of a divorced woman. You are permitted to swear before the judge that your husband divorced you without an agreement to drop any of your rights.
