Court denies Islamic divorce

Saying "I divorce thee" three times, as men in Muslim countries have been able to do for centuries when leaving their wives, is not enough if you're a resident of Maryland, the state's highest court ruled ...

[Joe Schmedlack]

Well, $2500 to settle a divorce. Like the article says, Aheem is a banker, not a lawyer.

She should be entitled to half his wealth.

"his wife of more than 20 years and deny her a share of his $2 million estate."

Glad to see the separation of church and state is actually being recognized here. It really is to protect us from things like this.

My comment it as clear as Our laws!
You can have your own religion, your own identity, your own beliefs in this country.
You reep the benefits of this country as an American(?), You take advantage of other American People using our Laws and Justice System,
Why do you think you can run back to Your(?) Country Laws, to benefit you, when it suits you(?)
By the way who do you pledge Allegiance too?

the alleigance of ALL muslims is towards koran and islam ONLY. they bow towards mecca and pray.

EVERYTHING else is zilch for a muslim.

This is good news. I hope this sets a precedent. To accept usage of comity in a case like this would be considered a human rights violation.

He'll be very lucky if he doesn't find himself cited for contempt of court for trying this stunt.

Western Europe is currently in the process of being conquered by Demographic Jihad. We must stop Mohammedan immigration to the U.S. before the same Demographic Jihad happens to us. That an American court of law even had to deal with this Islamic "talaq" crap is incredible. Stop Muslim immigration to the U.S. NOW!

[Durgesh jabalpur]

I congratulate the court for a bold and necessary decision.

He is an economist in the World Bank and see the mentality of the man and his concern for a lady who had shared bed with him for twenty yeras.

P.S. Great Islamic thinkers of the day, AAAA and Double AAAA can also be contacted.
If you wait a little, there can be a Triple AAAA also.

Actually, I'd begun to think their 'alleigance' was 'ONLY' toward those willing to strap high-explosives to women and children and to use them to blow up other women and children. After all, isn't why the families of those who do are rewarded with monies? This is ALL about fundamental [no pun intended] values. Those who would live in the 10th century, vs...the rest of mankind / the human species. Make NO mistake about it, this is a war against civilization by barbarians. As a footnote, please review the list of patents and/or Nobel Prizes awarded to Muslims/Arab states since such began being awarded [you needn't take off your socks to count 'em - your fingers will suffice]. No, these 'cultures' haven't contributed to the betterment of mankind in centuries and would - proactively, act to turn back the clock of mankinds' progress by centuries.

What are all these dimwits talking about?

Islamophobics can't wait seize an opportunity to express their retarded views of Islam.

Islam no where advises Muslims not to follow laws of the host country or the country of their residence: and, as such, the decision by our U.S. Court in MD by denying the Islamic Divorce is valid under Islamic law and jurisprudence.

That is end of the story and let us move on and get a life, morons.
