Asalamu Alaikum
We have been married for almost 6 years and have a 5 year old son. Since last 5 months my wife is staying with her parents and that prevents our child going to school and learn the Holy Quran.I am educating him in English medium school as well as teaching him Quran simultaneously but my wife opposes on this. I do not want to lose out on this time because this is the best age for him to learn as many things as possible.
She is not very educated herself (SSC only) while I have my Masters from Outside Bangladesh, she does not want something bright for our son for his future. I have a good job while she does not work.
I need your advice on the following:
1. Can I obtain legal custody of our son without divorce (so as to have him with me for educational purposes) as I do not want to divorce her for this reason
2. If yes, how (what is the legal procedure for this custody?) as per Bangladesh Muslim Family Rules.
3. Are there any other legal way for this matter?
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Regards,
Mainuddin

1. You can get your son when he's 7 years old but still there is a chance to get the custody if you can satisfy the court about the child welfare.
2. File a suit for custody in the family court.
3. You can do it through mutual agreement between you and your wife.
Thanks.
