"'I am waiting for my share after I contributed a rocket-propelled grenade for the operation,' she said, adding that she got the weapon from her ex-husband in alimony."
- yardie 17y agoI can't imagine how you go about getting a divorce in a country with no gov't and thus no court. Do you draw a line in the sand and say everything on this side is mine?
- DrJokepu 17y agoLarge parts of Somalia are governed by local Muslim groups. While divorce is not common in Islam and is generally condemned, it is possible in certain circumstances none the less. I imagine that the local religious leader can arrange a divorce, according to the Shari'ah.
- eru 17y agoThe catholics also do divorce sometimes. Though they do so by pretending that the marriage did never exist in the first place.
- replicatorblog 17y agoThis is an incorrect presentation of data. The process you describe is Anullment. The Catholic church permits the standard definition of divorce, but does not allow remarriage while the divorced spouse is still alive.
- eru 17y agoOK, thanks.
- Evgeny 17y agoThe triple talaq is a mechanism for divorce which exists in some forms of Islam. It simply consists of the husband saying the phrase I divorce you (Arabic:talaq) to the wife, three times. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_talaq http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_talaq I definitely like the idea.
- DrJokepu 17y agoThe "triple talaq" is not as simple as just saying "talaq, talaq, talaq". First, it is generally condemned. Second, there must be a month between each "talaq", so the whole procedure takes up at least two months.
