The answer

The husband's claim that the wife's rights fall away after divorce is baseless. The correct position is that the wife retains all financial rights of a divorced woman, unless the husband stipulated that she waive them. In case of dispute over these rights or the custody of children, the Sharia court is the one to decide, or Islamic centers if no Sharia courts exist.
