Divorce
Marriage in Islam is a contract with the standard elements of offer, acceptance and consideration, and not regarded as sacrosanct. It may be terminated by divorce on the grounds of abuse, infertility, lack of sexual fulfillment, lack of Nafaqah or financial support by the husband, adultery, dishonorable behavior, and irreconcilable differences. It is recommended in the Hadith that divorce should only be resorted to when there is no chance of reconciliation.
