Some questions about the Islamic rules of divorce and remarriage
My fiance told me I am able to marry Islamically even if I don’t have an official divorce because my previous marriage was not through Islam. I do not believe this to be correct so I did study and the only information I was able to find so far was about a woman’s waiting period after her divorce. My time away from my husband has been much longer than the required waiting time, but I think because it was a LEGAL marriage, I still need to obtain a LEGAL divorce before I am married again through Islam, is this correct or was he correct?
Can I marry again, whilst going through my divorce?
Obviously it is not possible in the UK to be legally married to more than one woman. But I believe that it would be possible to go through the Islamic ceremony (Nikah) and perform the civil marriage at a later date. My hope is that this would mean that we were married in Allah’s eyes and could start our life together.
My brother’s wife is greedy and demanding
There is a part of him that tells him to get rid of her and another part of him that says no -he has a strange reason. he says he doesn’t want to remarry as he is no longer a bachelor and does not want to go around with the marital status of being ‘divorced’.
