Legal Marriages in Dubai

Dubai is one of the cities with diverse cultures. From Muslims to non-Muslims and expats, it has gained attention from the globe. Knowingly that Dubai has good employment and business opportunities, families have also settled there. They have found a strong legal market in Dubai and many families would consult the Advocates in Dubai to help them in adjusting to the new environment. The legal society in Dubai has looked into family matters such as divorce, marriage, child custody and property disputes. However, they deal with legal matters according to the international laws for non-Muslims and Islamic law for the Muslims.

For example, if there is a case of interfaith marriage for a Muslim girl, then it would be told to her that she is not allowed to marry a non-Muslim as per her religion, Islam. Nevertheless, a male Muslim can marry a non-Muslim but if only she is ‘of the book’, for example a Christian. But a non-Muslim can marry a Muslim woman, if he converts his religion to Islam.

Moreover, to register a wedding in Dubai, it is important to do the ceremony in a worship place that is governed by the communal authority in Dubai, such as mosques for Muslims, churches for Christians and temples for Hindus. If the religion does not hold a specific worship place, then the wedding ceremony can be conducted in an embassy. There is often a misconception that family’s approval is important in marriage. But it does not apply in a Muslim marriage, because the bride side has to have four witnesses and her Guardian, or the father.

The Advocates have made marriages easy for the non-Muslims where there are not too many strict laws. They have several ways to unite a couple in a marriage. Before choosing any lawyer for your legal matter, you have to evaluate their profile including their professional qualifications and experience. Every family matter is resolved differently, therefore, they should be handled by an expert legal consultant. The UAE family laws are constructed within the good family values applicable all over the world.
