The Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961 regulates marriage registration, Polygamy and the minimum age of marriage of both husband and wife. Whereas, Divorce is unilateral right of husband to end the marriage tie. The other mode of Divorce is “Mubarat” where spouse mutually decides to end the marriage relationship.
