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.

If the husband beats his wife without her being recalcitrant, or that he beats her severely, leaving scars and marks on her body, then this is a harm that allows her to ask for divorce; and if the husband refuses to divorce her, she may take her case to the court so that the judge would oblige him to divorce her or that the judge himself would divorce her from him. She may as well ask her husband for Khul’ due to the harm he inflicts on her provided that she gives him back her dowry so that he would divorce her. The same applies if she hates him to a point that she fears not to fulfill his rights.

As regards the issue of fearing the future and him renting a house and not owning one, then this is not a legitimate excuse for her to reject him as a husband, as he is obliged only to provide her with a suitable accommodation according to his ability; as Allaah Says (what means): {Lodge them [in a section] of where you dwell out of your means.}[Quran 65:6]

Allaah Knows best.
