Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 1179/1179=M/1430)

It is extremely contemptuous and abhorring to harass wife and her parents for dowry or threaten her to divorce in case the demand was not met. Islam has no room for such demands. It is unlawful and haram to term a woman as randi or tawaif (prostitute) without a solid proof. They must do taubah and seek pardon.
