A Woman's Waiver of Her Rights in Exchange for Divorce

Question
My ex-husband took my gold and my money, and I waived my rights in exchange for my divorce, but inside I haven't forgiven him. Am I guilty of this act?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: Khula is when a woman waives her right to financial compensation in exchange for divorce. The man sins if he takes it and is the one who has transgressed and is being disobedient, and the woman does not sin by giving it to him even if she is not personally willing. And God knows best.
