                 Women Being Given Financial Security after Divorce


                 In the Qur'an God forbids a divorced woman being left alone,
             unprotected and financially unsupported. In the view of Islam,
             whether a woman is wealthy or not, she still has to be given financial
             security after divorce. Her ex-husband has a responsibility to ensure

             this.
                 Verses which refer to the need to ensure the financial se-
             curity of divorced women read as follows:









                        Divorced women should receive maintenance
                     given with correctness and courtesy: a duty for

                     all who have piety. (Qur'an, 2:241)


                     ... give them a gift – he who is wealthy according
                     to his means and he who is less well off according

                     to his means – a gift to be given with correctness

                     and courtesy: a duty for all good-doers. (Qur'an,
                     2:236)


                     He who has plenty should spend out from his

                     plenty, but he whose provision is restricted should
                     spend from what God has given him. God does

                     not demand from any self more than He has
                     given it. God will appoint after difficulty, ease.

                     (Qur'an, 65:7)
