what it is and what needs to be done. It also explores English law and case law
regarding Muslim divorce. While it should be noted that the UK has a different

free to choose the religious rules they adhere to, and free to decide how they want
to do so. Government policies in this area should be based on impartial and
independent research into the experiences and consultations of Muslim women to
ascertain their needs and desires.
