Divorce is a serious process in Islam, allowed when a marriage can no longer continue in peace. It must be handled with fairness, respect and according to the Qur’an and Sunnah to protect the rights of both individuals. A valid Islamic divorce requires clear intention, proper steps and consideration of both sides.
