I filed for divorce from my husband and he in return filed a case for me to go back to him as in Shariah law. I also filed child custody case wihch i lost in appeal court last week.The case that he filed for me to go back to him was rejected. Divorce case is pending for trial. Married for 6 yrs and my son is only 2and half year old.Im a converted muslim and am staying with my paretns wjho are not muslims.He has raised the question on my faith to islam and constantly kept convincing the court that if i got my sons custody ill go back to my previous religion affecting him too. Im job less he is not paying me . I feel my lawyer is bought off. My husband is a pchycologically ill person and will never let me have my son. Im not able to live without my son as he had kidnapped him 1 year ago after which i filed for custody rightaway. The courts have no mercy to even help me get visiting hous i haven seen my son being in same country. Ivd run every possible places but all in vain .Im 25 yrs.

Im 25 yrs old. Living in Dubai. My husband is very possesive of my son.My Visa has expired since i was in his sponsorship i dont want to renew it nor does he want to cancell my status so i can pick a job and get a working visa. He was very abusive and is a womeniser but has put up an impression of being a straigh guy to all his family and friends. He does not want me to ever meet my son. At times people around me advise to pray and not to lose hope of seeing my son as he will one day come back to me. They even say that since he is a muslim he will get his custody this being a muslim country..then wht about me? Im a converted Muslim!! do i get no help? This country seem to be helpless in my case as i have left no stone unturned.Even if i go to higher court and get my sons custody i cannot remarry coz if i do i will lose his custody again not only that he will never let me live my life with my son my way and will trouble me because the kind of person he is.Im mentally broken and upset.

sorry- I don't even understand the American laws -let alone another country's. get legal representation there and they will know your laws. try and seek a private detective to research your attorney and court system. our system stinks- but your is rotten.

First of all you did not state what's actually happened in your marriage till you made up your mind to file for a divorce. To what I understand if you're a Muslim and in Syariah Law, a child below the age of 7 will definitely goes under the custody of the mother. Unless he got something against you. About him raising the doubt in your faith as a true Muslim, well it's you to show him and for you to impress yourself in court. I understand your feelings of couldn't be away from your child but take one thing and one step at the moment. There's one good lady lawyer out there for you to engage but I couldn't remember the name at the moment. But there's one advice I could tell you at the moment. Patience and God's will be with you all the way. I will try my very best to help you in this ok. Trust me. But I need you to be open on your past. Hope to hear from you soon.
To all non Muslim friends, I understand we are trying our best to assist and help her in every which way we can but please do not raise any issues or doubt on Muslim's Law. A word of advice is welcome but please stay out of the religion unless you're a Muslim. Appreciate it and Thank you.

Babe, do you even know what Shariah law is? Of course an Islamic court would refuse custody.
To the questioner,
enlist the help of your father. tell your ex you want to reunite, then kidnap your child and head for a country that gives women more rights.

well doubt you will ever get custody as in that religion a woman is worthless and the father always gets the child. so your sol and next time reserch another countries laws before getting inolved with a man from that country. now if you would of had a daughter. then he would of said take the girl.

I take it that your not in the christian west.
I would appeal to the leader of his church as a mother. But understand as a woman, your desires may not be something that interests them.
Pray for your sons and keep you head on your shoulders. It will be the only way that you will get to see your son again.

Muslims are all like this. They care only about their religion. Make sure you dun make the same mistake again. Pray hard and have hope, you will get your happiness.

sounds like there is something more going on here than what you are saying. no courts would refuse a parent to see their child based on religion.
why don't you tell the true story.
