Yeaaaa..that is true..coz there are loads of those (mistresses/prostitutes) walking around in UAE…
So now we are blaming the law for these men being jerks??? OK! they are being jerks coz they ARE jerks! What ever the law says, even getting dumped over the phone, or via any mode of technology I feel is not very “polite”, getting divorced via a TEXT message..that is awful. I feel anyone getting divorced deserves to have a face to face discussion about it..not a TEXT message!
you shouldn’t completely blame men in general. after all, men include your father and brothers too. what i was saying, is that, besides these particular men being weak and weasely, its harsh shariat law that HELPS these dudes making it EASY for them to do something so stupid like that.
My cousin in Pakistan is divorcing his wife and it’s the same “SHARIAH” law there too but they’re going through a long procedure like the council sent the girl one talaq and then waited for three months etc.
^ Agreed, each ‘tallaq’ is given after 3 months, so a period of 9 months altogether in which for the first 3 months they can still get back together. That to me is a much lengthier process than the one in countries abroad and gives the couple time apart to truly assess the situation. Why the hate dude?
I don’t have brothers..and my parents are divorced..and trust me my dad did not use a phone to do it…it was a very lengthy discussion…it was sooooo bloody lengthy that I was very happy when it finally happened! But at least he was man enough to have the discussion face to face. It doesn’t matter what the law allows you to do…if you use a txt message to divorce, you are a jerk..actually you are more than a jerk..am jst being polite on GS.
I heard a shaykh talk about this and his opinion was that if the man is in such a fit of anger that he isn’t aware of his surroundings or drunk or something the divorce is not valid and must be done again. Opinions opinions, I know which one I prefer though. If someone was stoned out of their head to me that divorce seems meaningless (not that you would want to be married to a stoner anyway)
Saying the divorce three times or writing/typing/texting three times or expressing by sign language three times. All the same.
Isn’t it?
If I text someone very good words or very bad words by any means, won’t they have respective reaction?
Now, why in the world anyone try to discount the seriousness of the matter and the intention?
Just because electronic method was used, does that nullify the intention or the result? Nope.
(Provided it can be verified that the sender was indeed husband and he later reaffirms his intention)
Being a whimp or coward is another matter.
But if one believes three times saying these words means absolute divorce then one has to believe texting three times even at one go is final divorce.
Sir times you really sound a man will sent talak to his wife and he will for sure know she can read or not this is not new religious law if the man confirms that he sent the massage than talak will take place
