الطلاق بين الممكن و المحظور : دراسة اجتماعية تحليلية

Abstract EN

Divorce is a social problem that stems from the failure of the couple in compatibility, understanding, and co-living even in the lowest limits under one roof called the family.

Its consequences are serious among which are failure of marriage, family and essential relationships of the society.

Divorce is the cost of the undesirable marriage and is considered the opposite of it.

It is known from the beginning of the human society that recognizes marriage as a start to form a family whereas divorce is the end of the unsuccessful marital life.

All the ancient world and nations know divorce even before the heavenly legislations.

Many researchers think that Babylonian Hammurabi (1810-1750 BC) is the most famous and ancient legislator in history for its legislation contained divorce stating that the husband had the right to divorce his wife if she was barren; the wife had also the right to be constantly separated from her husband if she hated him after resorting to law.

If the husband committed a serious misbehaviour, the woman returned to her father's house after taking her possessions.
