Re: Property after Divorce

@Pinstripe Danda

this is not an issue of whether transactions are written down or not. It is an issue of equitable disbursements of assets created under a mariiage partnership. Housewives for example, do not have the means to earn and create assets on htier own but their husbands wouldn’t have been able to create the assets if they also had to take care fo the kids and and run the house for example. SO to simpley suggest, “to you;yours and to me; mine” is silly. Women will always be disadvantaged under this paradigm.

SO there are two things that can be done. Either the wives work as well and create their own assets or she has equal rights to the assets created under a marriage.

Once again man’s law trumps Allah’s laws when dealing with reality.

It would appear so, if you were looking at it aimed with only a minimal knowledge of islam, as seems to be the case with you.

Under shariah law, as espoused by the Qur’an and Hadith,

1. the provision for maintenance of a married woman is solely the responsibility of the husband. The husband has to pay a dowry (the amount set by the wife) and can’t take it back even upon divorce. (women win)
2. A woman has no financial obligation, and anything she earns or inherits is her property. She is under no obligation to spend even a cent from that in the marriage. (women win)
3. Upon divorce, husband has to pay for maintenance of during the three months of 'iddah. (women win)
4. The responsibility of maintenance of children upon divorce is on the man. (women win)

The inheritance laws are favorable towards men because they have a bigger financial reposnsibility than women.
Men are obligated to spend out of inheritance to take care of their wife and children, but their wives are not. It’s simple math.
And who says women are not allowed to work, as long as they follow the proper islamic dress code?
It’s a “Heads, i win; tails, you lose” situation for women.
