Islam is the only religion that permits divorce.. Other than that as far as I understand, no other religion permits divorce. The Catholic church does not for sure and as far as Hinduism is concerned, there isn't even an equivalent word in Hindi for divorce and they are using the Arabic/Urdu word Talaaq.. Islam does not encourage divorce though, in fact it is the most disliked among the halaal things in the eyes of God but it is allowed nevertheless under irrepairable circumstances.. But unfortunately, people do not understand that and they take undue advantage of this clause in the Islamic law.
