Divorce without Nikah Nama

Divorce without Nikah Nama : How can I individually initiate my divorce as a woman from a shia family who doesn’t possess her nikahnama and the man I married went out of country after sending me one divorce notice.

You can initiate divorce proceedings through a lawyer by filing a case in the Family Court. There is no absolute requirement to have the Nikah Nama in your possession at the time of filing. (an Affidavit ll be sufficient).

If needed, a certified copy of the Nikah Nama can be obtained from the relevant Union Council (UC) where the marriage was registered.

Even if your husband has gone abroad or has sent only one divorce notice, you still have the legal right to seek dissolution of marriage (Khula) through the court, and the court will proceed in accordance with law.
