Muslims don't tie knots & make pheeraz!!! they sign marriage certificate in presence of witnesses. Anyways, like i said earlier this talk about Shariah was totally irrelevant as Muslims don't practice Shariah on their own or within their communities.
The purpose is pretty obvious, Muslims don't follow rituals in legal matters as you insinuated. Even if they get divorced by saying " Tallaq" 3 times the legal proceedings are not exempted, not to mention people can take their marriages to courts as well & i am just talking about Pakistan here, so to say that Muslims profess their traditional beliefs, values, practices everywhere is completely absurd.
But shouldn't that state also try to provide proof or at least some illustrations where Shariah law has come into conflict with its national law? I mean, shouldn't Merkel be more specific when she says that Muslims should follow German law instead of Shariah while living in Germany, its highly dubious that Muslims living in Germany follow shariah when several Muslim states across the world don't even have Shariah law ?
Dude, allow me to rephrase my previous statement. Saying Tallaq 3 times doesn't complete the legal proceedings even if you are in a Muslim state you gotta have certificate or relevant papers prepared to be legally considered divorced. Saying Tallaq is just like you have announced to divorce your spouse but legal work still remains to be done.
you still have to go through the legal proceeding to get officially divorced. How else would the government know whether you are divorced?
But I always wondered, how many wives would a muslim be allowed to have if get divorced??? According to the law board you are allowed to have 4 wives, but what is you divorce your first wife? Are you allowed to marry 3 women of 4?
) at any given time... if you divorce your wife, you can marry upto 4
