Hey Aleem, you in Maryland not Allahland!
From the story: Aleem went to the Pakistani Embassy in the District, where he executed a written document that asserted he was divorcing Farah Aleem. He performed "talaq," exercising a provision of Islamic religious and Pakistani secular law that allows husbands to divorce their wives by declaring "I divorce thee" three times.
In Muslim countries, men have used talaq to leave their wives for centuries. (In America men have used other women to leave their wives for centuries) But they can't use it in Maryland, the state's highest court decided this week.
Irfan Aleem…is worth about $2 million, half of which Farah Aleem is entitled to under Maryland law. When Irfan Aleem tried to divorce his wife under the concept of talaq, a sum of $2,500 was mentioned as a "full and final" settlement, according to the appellate decision.
When choosing a place to live many things must be taken into consideration.....
