The mahr has not been paid and the husband has divorced me. Can I claim it?

Ya; mahar yang belum dibayar menjadi hutang suami dan boleh dituntut di Mahkamah Syariah selepas perceraian.
Jika perkahwinan telah disetubuhi, isteri berhak mahar penuh. Jika bercerai sebelum disetubuhi, dia berhak separuh daripada mahar yang ditetapkan. Mahar tidak gugur dengan perceraian, malah tidak gugur dengan kematian (boleh dituntut daripada harta pusaka).
Suami juga tidak boleh menuntut kembali mahar yang telah diberikan, kecuali dalam khuluk dengan persetujuan isteri. Bawa sijil atau kad nikah sebagai bukti jumlah mahar. Lihat mahar.
