Kay : Not necessarily. If you have been reliant on your husband for living expenses during the course of your marriage, you may ask for maintenance.

Kay : It does not matter if there is a child in the marriage. If your spouse was earning a living and you were dependant on living expenses, rightfully you should be entitled to maintenance.

I’m a non-Muslim married to a an expat (also non-Muslim) living in Malaysia .
We’ve been married for four years with no children.
If we get divorced, I would not get anything in terms of any settlements, right? Just because we don’t have children?
So is there any law that can protect people like in my case?

I have a best friend a Singh got married with an Indian girl according to Sikhism ritual and ceremony. The girl was born in Spore from an Indian Muslim family but never carried the muslim name her name is always A/P(anak perempuam) and claimed she is hindu during the married registration. Lately she got citizenship Msian and got her MYCard and stated Islam on it. They got 1 child now 7yrs old with region Sikh stated in the birth cert. Today the husband going to dvorce her due incompatible and they are going different path. Can this Singh file a dvorce base ground that she is now converted to muslim? What are the rights the girl posibiliy claim from him? Will the child goes to him or her?

I’m a foreigner (indonesian) non-muslim , now married with malaysian non-muslim, is it hard for me to get divorced? Do i get anything from my marriage to support myself if im divorced from my husband? I have 1 2yo child, can she be with me? as a foreigner, do I get any support or coverages if I get abused from husband? if let’s say the custody falls to my husband, as a mother .. can I stay n work in Malaysia (coz I need to be close to my child)?

sinco : Yes, a non-Muslim must remain in a monogamous marriage. Section 494 of the Penal Code provides for punishment by imprisonment up to 7 years and fine.
