help for a friend
hi people,
i would like to ve an advice tht if a husband n wife had a fight, following the wife in-laws came in the middle; putting up a complaint againt the husband. later in the public prosecution the QAZI say that i'll give u both a week to settle the differences and report back or u both go out of the country.
Question is that what would be the husband's legal standing meaning if the girl has wrote in the complain that she just wants a divorce (straigt forward); even after full tries the husband fails in vain to make the wife change her statement.
also they ve one baby girl less then 2 year old. where do the husband and his wife and baby stand as per qatari law.
i would really apperciate if anyone can help. thanks in advance.
The in-laws in any way have no business to interfere nor intervene in between husband and wife. If the wife went to the court to complain and proved her complaints to be true and asks for the divorce, she can be allowed to divorce his husband. The court advises you to settle your dispute for one week, meaning, this is between you two only settles without other middlemen. Most of the time a wife and a husband fights and its normal but it gets worst because of inlaws getting in in the fight, someone correct me if it is not true. So give yourselves a chance to talk, be cAlm and listen to each other. Give each one a reason of the doubt, let your mate win, but to have a win-win situation considering the string attach to both of you, i am referring to your child. Be ready to admit your mistake, say sorry if you are aiming to keep your marriage. Complimentary word once a day is a must, advisable as soon as you wake up or you arrive home. Give time to listen to each other.
If anyone of you filed a divorce, the court priorities the childs future. If the court awarded the child to the mother, the father should give an alimony to the child and be granted a visitation rights. If you were muslims, and the wife was the one who asks for divorce, she will pay the equal amount of her dowry to the husband as "khulla". This process in the court will take alot of years of time and effort, because of the court proceedings allowing enough time for the couple to think twice and twice.
Note: Don't let anyone go in between you two, you are grown ups and tell nicely to your inlaws that they should not go in between you. I hope these will help for both of you
Looking for a family lawyer is not advisable. The lawyer will not give advise, he only defend your side if you want to win. Aside from, lawyers are so expensive, just to take an appointments will take alot of time to wait and just to say 500 bucks is my fee for this short meeting. Just be true to the court and you will win the case, believe me i know exactly what i am talking here. I have gone all thru these process.
Goodluck
do you think that looking for a family laywer and discussing with him would be of any help, if so do you know any good family laywers. thanks in advance
There is now a new place for family affairs opened by the Qatari government. I think it is the one near castle traffic light.I recommend they go there and discuss matters there of the is the Family Development Centre on Suhaim bin Hamad. But I think that is for ladies only.
