Is an absent father, divorced and living abroad, obligated to provide child support and custody for his daughter living with her mother in Yemen, and what is the amount of such support in US Dollars or Qatari Riyals?

The maintenance of a nursed child is obligatory upon its father, and its amount is determined by what suffices and according to theusband's means. There is a disagreement regarding the eligibility of the custodian for a custody fee. It is preferable to refer to the Sharia court to determine this maintenance, and if an agreement can be reached on a specific amount, there is no harm in that.
