Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds.  I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and Messenger.

Since the case is referred to an Islamic court, then it is the court which will decide about it.

However, you have the right to ask for your right in court based on what you know about the behavior of your wife. If Khulu’ takes place, then you have the right as well to endeavor to foster your children by mentioning that your wife is corrupt. You may also benefit by giving the choice to your children to choose between you and her.

For more benefit, please refer to Fatwa 87762.

Allaah Knows best.
