What are the rights of a divorced woman with a child, regarding alimony and other matters, if the man's salary is 1000 Egyptian pounds?
- The irrevocably divorced woman with whom consummation has occurred, who was divorced by a revocable divorce: She is entitled to housing and maintenance during the waiting period (iddah) due to the husband's remaining authority over her. If the waiting period ends without a resumption of the marriage, then there is no maintenance or housing for her.
- The irrevocably divorced woman (Talaq Bain):
- If she is pregnant: She is entitled to maintenance and housing until she delivers her child, based on the Almighty's saying: "And if they should be pregnant, then spend on them until they have delivered their burden."
- If she is not pregnant (barren): She is not entitled to maintenance or housing.
- The divorced woman with whom consummation has occurred has financial rights, which include the full immediate and deferred dowry if it has not yet been paid.
- The maintenance of a child is obligatory upon the father. Its amount varies according to the husband's financial status and the custom of the country, and the Sharia judge rules in case of dispute.
