· Divorce: legal ending of a marriage
Christianity – Roman Catholics can separate but cannot remarry whilst partner is still alive, Divorced Anglicans can remarry but with Bishops permission, Eastern Orthodox grants divorces and remarries couples
Islam – divorce is ‘Hateful to God’, permitted as last resort, if wife at fault must repay marriage gift, if husband at fault must repay, husband must support children in all cases, must wait three months before divorcing to see if wife is pregnant
