Returning to husband during the idda after khul'

It is possible for a woman to demand divorce, provided she repays her mahr to her husband. What if she does not have the money to repay it? Does this mean that she cannot be divorced? In case the divorce is granted, who has custody of the children?

Could you please explain whether khul’ can be initiated by a woman only if the husband refuses to divorce her? What if she begins the process without first requesting divorce? If the couple has a young child, who takes custody of the child? If the father is in the habit of drinking, could the mother get permanent child custody? Are Islamic rules the same on this matter in all Muslim countries or do they differ? Can cases like these be settled in one’s place of residence, which is not in the country of one’s nationality?

Unfortunately my husband and I reached the decision of divorce. But it will be in form of (khol3). In the case of 'khol3', my question is, what money should the husband receive from the wife? My husband wants the following: Shabka, mahr, the money he spent to make the wedding, and the money he spent on the honey moon. Is this what our religion says? Is it his right to get all this money? I want to do what God says. Please note that I'm pregnant in our first baby.

A question about whether the shabka (the present that the groom traditionally buys his wife-to-be, as a token of love and appreciation. It ranges from a simple gold wedding band to a small collection of diamond rings, priceless necklaces and jingly bracelets) is to be returned after filing for khul'a (divorce initiated by the wife in return for remuneration to the husband]).
