By blackcat

is that easy to get divorced from your muslim husband if you are not muslim, and your marriage has been performed at the Shriah Court of Qatar?
what's the procedure? can woman say 3 times I divorce you, exactly like man can? and their marriage after that will be dissolved?

Marriage is a collaboration of two person so if one is not happy with the relation then other cannot force him or her to be with that relation.And any law cannot stop you to do this.Free legal information

Platao...its not good idea if a woman doesnt want you and u keep her , so if she gets nationality and say i want divorce then do it bcz no more love so why keeping her? first of all if you know woman wants you for ur passport then why marrying her? is it a business or love?

that is just my opinion but maybe u have other opinion

Blackcat, if you need help with divorcing your husband go to Fanar or Qatar Guest center. They will definatly help you, even when you need to go to court they will send someone with you.

qdo6, my answer has nothing to with whether a woman should or shouldnt ask for money, dowry, assets etc., i was saying, shes entitled to "what they agreed on at the time of marriage, now it could be money, assets or nothing, depends on what they decided at the time of marriage.

Your issue of whether a woman should or shouldnt ask for a dowry is entirely different matter.

Would like to add a question, what if a woman marries a man just to have nacionality and when she gets it, she asks for divorce, what can a man do, if he doesn't wanna divorce her?

Marriage must always be performed in Shariah court and mosque, or is it enough just to marry at mosque?

Nadt,

Please check with someone, I don't think that is correct. I know a lot of people think of the Mahar as a divorce insurance plan now days but the initial purpose was not that, Allahu'alim.

It causes a lot of issues and confusion now days because many can't afford to get married or have to wait because the dowries are set so high. It has become more of a status symbol. (Our daughter's dowry was ...., or we paid so much in dowry money) It is kind of backwards thinking in my opinion. Money or possessions can not protect a human being.

Southland, if theres a divorce, a woman is entitled to imakhaer(an amount agree upon when they got married incase of divorce), he doesnt have to provide for her afterwards, unless she has children and then hes financially responsible for the kids upbringing.

Divorced women have to be provided for. This is probably one of the abused laws in the Quran. But God holds us responsible for our innermost thoughts. If one observes God’s laws then God makes it easy for him / her.

[65:7] The rich husband shall provide support in accordance with his means, and the poor shall provide according to the means that GOD bestowed upon him. GOD does not impose on any soul more than He has given it. GOD will provide ease after difficulty.

Alimony For Widows and Divorcees

[2:240] Those who die and leave wives, a will shall provide their wives with support for a year, provided they stay within the same household. If they leave, you commit no sin by letting them do whatever they wish, so long as righteousness is maintained. GOD is Almighty, Most Wise.

[2:241] The divorcees also shall be provided for, equitably. This is a duty upon the righteous.

if you seek Qula you just walk out empty ended. If any property under ur name one has to return it back, even money.

Smart women should take everything as hadiya (gift) then no one has right to take hadiya back

well I'm not that religious

but for the peopl who answered the Q

most of u got it wrong

the answer is yes the women can have a divorce if she goes to court and ask them to divorce her. and she also can reason her divorce by "i hate him".

but every action got consequences. i mean there is something called "saddaq" where man should pay an amount of money if he divorce his wife. or if the women asks for divorce and the reason was "treating me wrong", "doesn't support me financially" or "he hit me" he'll have to pay "saddaq" for it.

What is the problem?

Apparently both of you, could not get your Crap together, before and after marriage......

Both of you, might as well rub a genie lamp at least 3 times.

The genie maybe; would come out and tell you: What the hell! both of you again? and with the same story over and over.

Here I grant you a wish, just tell me one time, I divorce you!.

Just be aware that in Qula, he will not be liable of anything, while if he divorced you, you will get money every month by law.

eh? MAJID? what makes you thinking that I have not married him yet?

thanks to others for the constructive responds. I think i'll try check this matter with the shariah court again. but the problem is when you call them there is no one who can speak english. so every time they say call later. and this later never comes.

amnesia, all of these are my issues. you got it right man.

SN, i love your advice. I would do it with the huge pleasure. if i only knew i won't be jailed. no point to go to jail for this piece of sh**, trust me. he is not worth it.

If a Muslim man gets a divorce from his wife, is he responsible still for her home/well being if/until she remarries?

i know a philipine girl, who is married to a Muslim in Qatar. ( He is not a Qatari ) .. she does not want him any more and living separately for the last 2 years. He later left Qatar and now working in Saudi, but never takes his fone, when she ask for help for his child, who is now in Philipines. Same time, he is not ready to give a divorce, which she wants and wanted to marry a man of her choice.

what is the solution

A woman can divorce a husband for sure. If she is unhappy, not being provided for, not being treated right, etc..

A woman has 100% the right to divorce.

Its not a matter of equal rights between man or woman.

In Islam man candivroce and women has also (but mostly twisted cultural crap take over the islamic values), but to safegaurd the process there is some time period for reconcialiation between the couple.

If you can check with Sharia Court they can help you.

I am sorry about the whole issue that anyone has to face such a thing. I hope it can be solved.

Wish you luck

A muslim wife can divorce a man, the process is called "Qula". Get in touch with the Sharia court.

If Islam gives equal rights to men and women, she can. If Islam does not give equal rights to men and women, she can't. You only have to find out now which applies.
