I do give credit where it is due. I watched part of this TV program about Islamic divorce in Australia. If I had gone through a similar process, the part where the couples fronted those other guys, I am very sure my marriage could have reconciled. But that was a very long time ago. The problem I had, not entirely with family law court/s, but with family itself who got involved in our marital affairs and dominated the outcome, one sided, her's. Who suffered the most was the children at the time.
What I saw on TV, the Islamic way was confrontation in council with both couples, and at least one couple re-conciled from this process.
I will admit though, I was wrong in parts of my doings that caused marital problems, but when one looks at the very nature of our issues at the time, the bad seed was planted early in our marriage, ( long story ), but I guess one could say, Gossip, Jealousy played a major role and over several years the pot boiled over, so to speak. Had we had a bit of Islamic in principle, ( over 15 years ago ) where attempts of re-conciliation was acted on, and not by her private lawyer using the laws to profit by "winning", I may still have watched my children grow and be part of their lives as an Aussie dad. There are parts I did not agree with in relation to the Islamic Divorce process, but it would not have mattered in my or our case. From my experience and I can only say from my experience, divorce process in Australia seemed to be made a business, she with her families $$ paid for a very good lawyer in that type of environment, where all I had was Legal Aid, they did their best to may I add, but in the end, it seems the $$ wins out in some cases, regardless of what the real deal is all about. Thanks SBS, ( I think it was SBS ) for that program.
