Family Law Blog: We are Muslim, so we can get divorced with a talaq

Saturday August 8, 2009 at 5:09pm

Wrong.  To get a legal Islamic divorce if you are in the UK you need to go through a UK Court divorce. If not, you will be regarded in the UK as still married and thus committing an offence by remarrying.

Of course, you will also need to have the divorce granted by the Islamic religion to be able to have a Muslim marriage again.
