[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the real world wives[b] come in marriages with their own personal property[/b] that is protected by Shariah so that the husband has no right to it in case of a divorce AND in the real world, wives actually can be wealthier than their husbands which if it happened in the west, stated wives would lose some of their personal property to the poor husband they married.  [/quote]
It's not terribly special of Shariah to protect personal property brought into the marriage - most legal systems protect the assets parties acquired before marriage, you know.  It's the treatment of assets acquired by either spouse IN THE COURSE of the marriage that's different.  The West treats anything acquired during marriage as marital property regardless of who paid for it.  Shariah doesn't.  It wasn't smart of you to brag about protections Shariah affords to assets parties bring into the marriage as most legal systems act exactly the same. I can't think of a country that treats assets parties brought into the marriage  that is, acquired before marriage -  as joint property. [/quote]
