Morrocans dont marry on "paper" only...He has Allah-given right to deny his wife food , shelter, beat her or even divorce her by just saying "talaq" three times...So dont believe that his wife is a "bitch ass"...It is a trick too- to bad-mouth the wife/ex-woman...not only it causes sympathy (poor- little teddy bear) but also shows him in a good light- he puts up with such a witch...so on...

Margaret, In Morocco you can not say Talaq three times and be divorced! Its not that simple anymore or at least for Moroccans...You have to get a divorce and prove there are grounds for the divorce and it is hard to divorce. The new King changed this along with many other Moroccan family laws including marriage in Morocco...Please post facts and not what old Quaran says just to scare others. It is not used by The magistrates office or ministry of justice. Check out FACTS before you try and warn others. Also it says no where in the Quaran to deny your wife food or shelter and the beating is not what you make it sound...it says do not whip like a slave, do not hit in the face if one should be beat and most regard this as a scolding not actual beating and ones who are beating wifes are just plain wife beaters like your American man or other country men....also The Quran says to treat your wife good and the hadith also tells us Margaret, that incase a man does not meet the living expenses of his spouse, there must be a separation between them if the spouse demands such a separation. However, if a woman is willing to be patient with him through the thick and thin of it, great shall be her reward. With this said, many things are stated in Quran with the hadiths but doesn't mean they are followed today and some of what you write can be over exaggerated a bit..

I do agree with you about Moroccan's not marrying on paper just for paper sake....it has to be done in the Family court of law called the Ministry of Justice, Department of family Affairs, Court of Appeal Court of First Instance...same as if a non-Muslim marries....There are several places one have to go to and you have to show lots of identification and papers and have an agreement concerning the Dowry which is still used in Muslim law or they will not marry you and the man should have already paid you a portion of this dowry to accept the marriage.
