Are the difficult living conditions of a husband, including lack of money, instability, prolonged absence, and inability to have children or secure their future, considered sufficient reasons for the wife to seek divorce?

We advise you to be patient and to supplicate, for the jurists have clarified the reasons that permit a woman to seek divorce. A wife has the right to a suitable dwelling, maintenance according to what is customary, and the right to procreate. If your husband denies you any of your rights, you are entitled to demand it from him. If he does not respond, you may seek a divorce due to harm if you wish, while exercising caution and consulting with people of sound judgment. We also caution against the dangers of acquiring citizenship in non-Muslim countries, especially concerning children.
