What Constitutes A Divorce And State's Authority
It is clear from Quran that Divorce needs to be a conscious decision with complete intention. The way Quran described the procedure of divorce, this matter becomes clear. When state makes a procedural law in this regard then that law also needs to be followed. A muslim should abide by both the sharia law and the state law. The wordings of a divorce may vary from culture to culture but the concept of divorce is universal without any disagreement and people living in a society always know what words/actions etc. constitute a divorce.
