Ep #47: Divorce & Money

This is a conversation with an amazing attorney, Amina Rashad, Esq. “And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out. And will provide for him from where he does not expect.” Al-Talaq, 65:2-3⁣⁣⁣⁣Marriage is highly encouraged in Islam. It has many beautiful aspects. ⁣⁣⁣⁣However, a relationship can become unhealthy. Thus, divorce is not only allowed, but a woman has a right to get a divorce. ⁣⁣⁣⁣Divorce can be detrimental to once finances. ⁣⁣⁣⁣You can start a marriage with a strong foundation by discussing many of the issues that might arise later. ⁣⁣⁣⁣Who will handle the finances? Is the wife expected to contribute financially? ⁣⁣⁣⁣It’s never late to consider a post-nuptial agreement. ⁣⁣⁣⁣These discussions do not mean that you do not trust your partner, but it can help to protect both parties in case things go wrong. ⁣⁣⁣⁣It can provide peace of mind and safety. ⁣⁣⁣⁣I highly encourage that all couples should seek legal advice before starting a matrimonial journey.⁣⁣⁣⁣Amina Rashad, Esq. is licensed in NY and NJ.
