الطلاق الصوري : معالجة فقهية معاصرة

Abstract EN

The present study derives its significance from the interdiction of practicing the act it deals with.

Such practice leads to regarding unlawful income as lawful, and evading a national duty that is an obligation from the Islamic point of view.

The researcher tackles the definition of nominal divorce, mentions the reasons behind it, illustrates its types, and explains the difference between it and other types resembling it.

Then, he deals with the effects of this type of 'divorce'.

The researcher indicates the ruling on nominal divorce meant for obtaining government pension or avoiding conscription (in compulsory military service).

The conclusion contains the most important findings of the study as follows: Islam allows divorce as a cure when it is impossible for a couple to lead a normal life in marriage.

Nominal divorce is a case in which divorce is announced and marriage is hidden in order to obtain personal benefits or evade some significant duty.

This type of divorce is prohibited in Islam because it mocks the ordinances of Allah Almighty.

Therefore, it is considered a true divorce in effect, and counts as one of the limited [three] chances of divorce allowed for a married couple.
