Man divorces wife through loudspeaker

A Saudi man used a loudspeaker in a crowded shopping mall in the Gulf Kingdom to divorce his wife after he saw her accept advances by a young man, the Saudi Arabic language daily Shams reported on Monday.

The husband was watching his wife from a distance inside the busy mall in the central town of Madina when he saw a young man approaching her and slipping a piece of paper in her hand, the daily said.

“He saw his wife putting the paper inside her bag….when she left the mall and got into the car, he looked into the bag and found that paper…he then asked her to get back with him to the mall,” Shams said.

“He went straight to the loudspeaker room and shouted the divorce words at his wife…when she heard them, she collapsed and started to cry.”

    It is very sad. Firstly the women should not have accepted the piece of paper (we are all assuming the negative side anyway.) I believe this is first divorce and still there is room for them being united again ...

    This is totally against islamic view on divorce. this is because of the ignorance by the saudi person. i guess this decision is based on sudden anger in the unexpected situation. let the experts tell whether its a valid one or a not valid divorce.
