Marriage under Syariah law comes with important rights and responsibilities — from financial support and caregiving to maintaining family well-being. But when relationships face challenges or break down, it can be difficult to know what to expect or where to turn. This session will help you better understand marriage and divorce under Syariah law in Singapore.
Learn about your rights and obligations within a marriage, as well as the legal processes involved if divorce becomes necessary. The panel will walk through key issues such as the grounds for divorce, how proceedings take place in the Syariah Court, and important matters including nafkah, custody, care and control of children, and the division of matrimonial assets.
Through practical guidance and real-life examples, you will also gain insights on navigating the process with confidence, managing its impact on you and your family, and accessing legal aid, counselling, and community support.
Whether you are considering your options, currently going through a divorce, or simply want to be informed, this session will equip you with the knowledge and resources to make thoughtful, confident decisions moving forward.
