As a Muslim woman working in the government, I’m considering divorcing my husband, who works as a driver in Dubai. Our child currently lives with him. Would he be able to ask me for financial support for the child? And if so, would I still be obligated to pay even after I remarry?

Under Indian law, your husband can seek maintenance for your child. However, your obligation to pay maintenance for the child continues even after remarriage. The quantum of maintenance is determined by the court based on your income and other factors.
