A Comparative Study of the Rights of Divorced Spouses in the Abrahamic Religions

Abstract

The family is one of the most important pillars of human life that sometimes falter and the parties decide to separate. Divorce Among the Abrahamic religions Although it is approximately the same, there is much disagreement on the rights of both parties. This descriptive-analytical study shows that in Islam, due to the vulnerable status of women, this norm has been given greater financial support for women and has been granted rights such as proverb, nahla, dowry and alimony. Whereas in Judaism and Christianity the woman is only entitled to dowry and alimony on the basis of the couple's ability to do so, this indicates the relationship between the owner and the owner. Whereas in Islam a woman receives alimony because of her personality status, which has nothing to do with her work at home, and may even receive a separate pay for such work. Among the non-pecuniary rights to be considered during a divorce is the right to custody, the laws of which vary across religions, but in all three religions it is the child's interest that is considered
