What is the solution for a wife who has been harmed by her husband and left him, while he refuses to divorce her and she refuses to return to him? And can the imam of the mosque divorce her in exchange for compensation to the husband?
The entity that rules on the separation between spouses is the Sharia court. It is not permissible for the Imam of the mosque to do so. If there are no Sharia courts, then Islamic centers take their place.
