Please elaborate on the situation whether the woman may regard herself as divorced, & must she serve her iddat ? Can she now re-marry?
Answer :
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh The woman can not be regarded as divorced if the husband did not divorce her. If the husband is missing, the wife may apply to the Judicial Committee of the Jamiat for an annulment of her marriage. And Allah knows best Wassalam Mufti Ebrahim Desai
