the child was there, because he knows beyond doubt that the mother will not let
the child go and will not accept or agree to deliver the child to him. The right
would have been with the father, had the mother delivered the child to him by
consent and acceptance, did not object or pleaded capability, but this was not the
case and she was urged to raise this case, in which case, the court must verify
capability according the requirements of section (116) of the Personal Status Act
for Muslims 1991 and to verify whether the appellant have a female around him
who is fit for custody, this verification shall include all custody’s requirements.
And for the reasons mentioned, Therefore, I believe, if my respected colleagues
agree, to cancel all judgments issued by the lower courts for being contrary to this
view and to refer the papers to proceed in the case in accordance with the
directives of this pleading.
