I make dua you are in the best of health and iman most respected Imam.

Imam saheb if your wife is unable to have childeren (infertile) or there's sth wrong with your husband's semen (causing no fertilization), is it Islamically legitimate for the other half to have a divorce?

Wassalamu 'alaykum

She may ask for a divorce if she is not happy with you, because it is a fault on your behalf. Alternatively, she may want to be with you, and you may with her permission conduct another marriage.

Whichever way round you go, there is a solution to the problem both ways.


Jazak'allah for your question.
