What is the ruling on deceiving the state to receive the father's pension by officially divorcing then remarrying customarily?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is not permissible to deceive by using an urfi marriage to obtain money designated for a woman who has no husband, because it is a valid Islamic marriage ( shari) from which the rulings of marriage ensue, including the obligation of maintenance. Thus, the woman remains married in reality and according to Islamic law.
