Again, tjhis probably happens in the life you created in your head, in real life again how many people in the US make over $900k?  :roll:  You can't make sense with nonsense. The example you've cited only applies if and only if in a Non-muslim society the husband is filthy rich and the wife super poor and for some reason she gets a lot of money after the divorce. How many times does this happen in real life? one in a blue moon. As part of my divorce i went to a family workshop mandated by the laws of the state I live in, you know what was happening at the workshop? A bunch of women crying about how their husbands left them with nothing and how they had to sign papers from the husband's lawyer to give them a certain amount of money for a certain amount of time  and they agreed because they had no choice, or they didnt wanna deal with it, or the husband is just a loser and has zero money. Yeh, that's divorce in the US for ya and then these women go and file child support and spend the next 18 years researching the dead beat dads, following them, filing one child support order after another to get some sort of "help" from their ex-husband/ex-boyfriend. Uhm, okay I guess you have not spent a day in a family court in the US to see what really goes on! Muslim women don't have to fight for child support, the father is Obligated to support the children irregardless of how much the mother makes! But yeh continue living in Utopia![/quote]
I am sorry you choose to spend your life around poor people, but in this area having a house worth $900K is not uncommon.  Take a look at the Real Estate forum if you like.

It happens quite frequently in real life that marital assets post-divorce are divided between wife and husband regardless of who paid for them originally. Note: "irregardless" is not a word. A divorce is not "some reason", it's a perfectly good reason to split assets down the middle.

I believe you that if you went to family court, you'd find lots of unhappy people.  If you go to the intensive care unit, you'd meet lots of sick people, too.  You were just never exposed to a population of women who got their share without resorting to the courts.

The world in which Muslim women don't have to chase their men for child support is just as much of an utopia. If you have statistics on child support compliance broken down by religion, please cite.   And don't forget that Muslim women lose preferred rights to custody (if they had them to begin with) if they remarry.

But I get it. You think it's good to be poor. You think homemaker women don't deserve anything of their husband's assets, even after years of cleaning, cooking and raising his children.  If that's your position, you're welcome to it.

[quote]Uhm, it is my choice not to get alimony.[/quote]

No it wasn't, not in shariah system, again, women who initiate divorces are not eligible for maintenance, if you have proof of otherwise, cite.  What the American court offers you is a moot point; under shariah, women who initiate divorces are not eligible for maintenance.  Why do you bring up American court?

If you went to the shariah judge with a request for separation (mind you, it's only you who would have to go, your husband doesn't) and he ruled for you, would you have been eligible for the 3 months of maintenance? No.  So let's not drone on how it was your choice not to get it, under shariah you were never eligible for it as a woman who initiated the divorce in the first place.

[quote] i told you I did not believe in Alimony, so I don't understand why you went rambling paragraph after paragraph about alimony.[/quote]

Again - it's not alimony. It's division of assets.  I am not quite certain why you keep confusing the two - perhaps you don't understand the difference between the two?

Perhaps your educating efforts would have been more effective had you learned how to write properly.
