The question

What is the ruling on divorcing a wife whose intimacy is disliked and between whom and her husband there is no affection or love, despite each of them fulfilling their duties towards the other, after a marriage that has lasted for nearly a year, and does the description of "enjoying what is lawful" apply to it if the husband intends to divorce her after a period of time?

The answer

Marriage with the intention of divorce is permissible according to the majority of scholars, as long as it is not stipulated in the contract, and the default ruling for divorce is permissibility. Marital life should be built on love and mercy. If this becomes impossible and hatred prevails between the spouses, then divorce becomes recommended in the view of many scholars, such as the divorce of one who is unable to fulfill marital rights or one who has no inclination towards them.
