00:00:01 --> 00:00:04
			If you have been separated from
your husband for a period of time,
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:08
			do you become Islamically
divorced? Now remember, marriage
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11
			never expires on its own. This is
a question that gets asked to me
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			quite often I get like a few of
these questions a year at least,
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:17
			which is that we haven't seen each
other for this many years or
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			whatever the case is. We haven't
slept together for this. Many have
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:23
			been different rooms, does that
make a divorce? No marriage will
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:28
			only expire through divorce,
through dissolution by a judge, a
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:32
			group, an arbitration panel or
something of that nature. Right.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:38
			So even hula is generally asking
for a divorce based on some kind
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			of payment or something of that
nature. So it's all that a
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:44
			marriage is never going to end
just by inactivity, because
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			marriage is supposed to be
forever. It's supposed to go into
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:51
			Janet, so to the hereafter, at
least, so it's not going to ever
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			expire by inaction.
