My marriage and divorce took place according to the shariah, nothing i have said is the result of the West, i was married according to shariah and divorced according to shariah. There are no separate rules of marriage/divorce depending on where you live, the rules are the same. Uhm Sorry, this is what Islam says should happen to women, nothing i have said/shared is just what happened to me , it is what happens to muslim women everywhere, it is the rule of Islam, you can refute it all you want, does not keep me up at night as i know what Islam said since I follow the damn thing. Why do you think you are the expert on this? LOL.. And no, us Muslim women don't want marital assets to be split down the middle, that does not interest us in any way so I don't know why you think you know what the solution is for muslim women in divorces. The way it works is this, we don't have to contribute squat in the home while married, every $$$$ we earn is ours and ours alone to do what we see fit, and when we get married we get a dowry from our husband, so that dowry and the salary you've been earning while working is what you put in a bank account so you have a nest if you get divorced. No , we don't believe that a man has to take care of you for 20+ years just because he married you, that does not make sense to me and no that wouldn't make my life better, and we have all seen the nasty divorces and nasty alimony fights in non muslim countries, so yeh that is not a perfect system either, to each their own.[/quote]
There is no "we", you don't speak for every Muslim woman. You have no way of knowing what all of them want or believe.  Stop making a virtue out of necessity.

I didn't say I know what the solution is. I simply pointed out that money wise, a divorced Muslim woman makes out worse vis-a-vis a non-Muslim one,or, more accurately, shariah views on divorce severely disadvantage women.  Your dowry isn't yours to keep if you're the one wanting to divorce, incidentally.

Not every Muslim woman works and she needs her husband's permission to do so, anyway.  Yeah, that nest egg worked out beautifully for Shah Bano, didn't it.[/quote]
