  A new idea in Egypt is starting a lot of debate after a member of parliament, Amira Fouad, suggested changing the personal status law. Her proposal would give a wife the legal right to ask for a divorce through court if it is proven that her husband is addicted to drugs or has a serious mental illness that affects family stability. The proposal is part of wider recent attempts to reform Egypt’s personal status (family) laws, which already regulate issues such as divorce, custody, and alimony.  If this proposal became law, a wife would need to go to court and provide strong evidence, such as medical reports, psychiatric evaluations, and drug test results. The court would likely involve specialists (doctors/experts) to confirm the condition, and only after this process could a judge decide whether the situation is serious enough to justify divorce. Right now, these specific reasons (addiction or mental illness) are not clearly defined as direct legal grounds in this way. Women often have to rely on more general claims like “harm” or choose khulʿ (no-fault divorce), which can require giving up financial rights. This proposal tries toContinue reading "Should Egyptian Women Be Allowed to Divorce Addicted or Mentally Ill Husbands?"
