Dear Mufti Elias, as a South African born Muslim I would just like to know why can’t our divorces be settled by institutions like the Jamiat… Or why can’t local ulema and aalims and Muftis not have a final say when reaching out for their help. The reason I am asking is I’ve agreed to a separation from my wife based on a Khula divorce on condition she gives back the mehr. In the Jamiat’s office in Fordsburg my wife’s father agreed to it in front of a representative of the Jamiat . A week later she phoned the Jamiat saying she did not agree to the condition. She has denied me access/contact to my 2 year old daughter for 3 months now . Its unfortunate I have to get legal tactics involved in approaching the high court for simple visitation rights. The cost factor is high and not necessary but this resolves around the issue that there are no Islamic bodies that can help us in a customary marriage dispute. The Jamiat can only advise and not police my rights over my child. Why can’t we have an authoritive body within the Muslim council of bodies that can help us in a legal way. Even if their services renderd are fee structured , it will help so many Muslim families sort out issues
