What is mut'ah (consolatory gift) after divorce, and how much is it?

Mutʿah is a consolatory gift from the former husband to a wife divorced through no fault of her own.
Allah says that divorced women are entitled to mutʿah on a reasonable basis, as a duty upon the God-fearing. The Qur'an sets no fixed amount; it is measured by the husband's means.
In Malaysia, a wife may claim mutʿah in court (Act 303, s.56 and the equivalent sections in the state Enactments). The court weighs the length of the marriage, the wife's contribution, the effect of the divorce and the husband's income. Awards can range from thousands to hundreds of thousands of ringgit. See talaq & divorce and the calculator.
Difference among the schools. Shafi'i: mutʿah is obligatory for every wife divorced after consummation (dukhul) where the divorce was not caused by her. Maliki: recommended only. Hanafi: obligatory only if divorced before consummation with no mahr fixed.
