Kelly-Elaborate on the Marriage contract

I am praying that some of the girls here are digesting some cold hard facts. I do not judge, I am sincerely hoping the comments guide.

Kelly, you forgot to mention your Islamic marriage contract. For Muslim women this is very important, and protection for them upon divorce. The $1000 gold you received will not do a thing for you if you divorce. The marital contract should stipulate a dowry to be paid upon marriage, and can have a price paid upon divorce.

You see the reality is when you divorce is you will not be blessed enough to have a western divorce, so regardless of whether he is a millionaire, there is no such thing as marital property or community property.

Also, you have failed to mention who gets custody of the "Muslim" children.
