Divorce In Egypt!!

If one partner is foreign you cannot marry in a church
And if both are Orthodox divorce is impossible
Marriages that take place at Ministry of Justice are NOT CIVIL MARRIAGES.
They are complete religious marriages which are as follows:
1- If the husband is Muslim, Muslim law applies, regardless of wife's religion (and in that case, she can only be Muslim, Christian or Jewish).
2- If the husband AND wife belong to the same religion, their religion's law applies. So if both are Orthodox, Orthodox Church laws in Egypt take effect.
3- If husband does not share the same religion and sect with the wife (e.g.: Orthodox and Catholic, Christian and Jewish ...etc.), Muslim law applies.
So in the aforementioned case, the wife is Orthodox, the husband is Orthodox. There is NO divorce, except in the case of proven adultery .....

He ran away from uae, and I would prefer not to have to go to Egypt for divorce procedures. Can it be done without me having to be there? Can I ask an alawyerto represent me?
Yes for sure you can do it,but you need to trust the Lawyer.
Husband Muslim, me Christian, we married in Cairo M of J.
18 months later he divorced me by mouth, then went to M of J in Cairo and put it to paper on a Irrevocable Divorce, I was not there to sign, no one signed for me.聽 He had papers translated and stamped off my Ministry of Foreign Affairs......聽 he did not take me back.聽 I have proof of him doing this via emails.聽 聽 Once the U.S.聽 The U.S. Embassy said they will notarize the translation of the certificate from the the Ministry of Justice and the authenticated by the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs,聽 BUT is this a FINAL divorce and LEGAL in USA?聽 I know it is legal in Egypt.聽 聽 Keep in mind when he married me there, he was not fully divorced from his wife, he only did a 1st Revocable Divorce, never finalized it, I never knew this when we married,聽 so our marriage was not legal in USA,due to Polygamy not accepted in USA,聽 聽AND the U.S. Embassy never stamped off our marriage cert. I just never had them do it..
Are you in the USA? If so, you can file here. If he is willing to sign the papers and give you divorce, he can sign a Wavier in front of a Notary at the U.S. Embassy, since the divorce will take place in the USA if you are here.........
If your husband is willing to give you a divorce in Egypt, have him file at Ministry of Justice, and give your Power of Attorney to a trusted friend there to sign the divorce papers for you..... the lawyers I've delt with there were crooks. and charged 5 time more then a lawyer in the USA.

I don't think this could be true... If you got married in Egypt u can get divorced in Egypt. But indeed make sure you ARE actually divorced before getting married again

I have a friend who has given birth to twin girls she already has a little girl about 3 years old.Her husband has now decided to divorce her,can he do this.
I am horrified by his actions can a court refuse the divorce or is there something she can do.
Any suggestions please.

I married my Egypt husband May 2011 at M of J in Cairo
He was just divorced from his first wife, a First Irrevocable divorce, and she did not sign.
Moving forward. He utters the words I divorce you November of 2012 in our marriage.
April 2013 he puts it to paper as a Irrevocable Divorce, I was not there to sign. He had it
all stamped off, translated and more stamps.聽 The U.S. Embassy will do their stamping in November when he goes there.聽 He did not take me back, and he has the paper from the Civil Status Dept.聽 Im waiting to see it.
He returned to his (first) wife sometime I guess before her Iddat was over when he divorced her May 2011.聽 so that there kills our marriage in USA, fine. But still it was legal in Egypt.
Question is. What did is considered the date of聽 our divorce?聽 Nov. 2012 when he said the words?, OR, April 2013 when he put it to paper?
Can I please ask if a muslim man is married to and english woman in egyptian law but they live seperately , ie her here and him in egypt and are seperated, can he marry another english national and what tpye of divorce is required, if at all?
Where does the english nationals stand also?
Thank you in advance.
but not sure what is the actual date of my divorce, any idea?
