Overheard at the #syariah court (don't ask):
Judge: So both of you agree to the divorce?
Soon-to-be-ex-hubs: yes, your honour
Soon-to-be-ex-wifey: yes, your honour
Judge: well, if there's no other issue, before we proceed with the talak proclamation, would you both like to have a final salam?
Soon-to-be-ex-wifey: oh it's okay, we can have that when we meet again for #Eid celebrations.
Judge: you certainly will not!#Islam #Sharia #Malaysia #MYToots #TootSEA #MuslimProblems
[Salam is literally a handshake but more personable. You certainly do it before leaving home for example, for blessings from your parents, older siblings, spouse etc. As it's a physical gesture, once divorced, your ex is no longer grouped under muhrim/mahram, so if you're from a stricter school on physical touching like Shafie Sunnis, then with divorce, you're both haram/forbidden from each other again.]
