Dear Questioner,

Yes, it is possible for you to get married in the UAE under Islamic law. There are certain requirements you must follow.

If you were previously married in the Philippines, you will need to provide a certificate of separation or divorce from your previous spouse.

And you will need to obtain a marriage license from the relevant Sharia court in the UAE.  We will let you know the procedures in detail.

Kindly share your WhatsApp number so we can discuss this further.

Dear Questioner,

Converting to Islam does not invalidate a marriage contract that was made before converting to Islam.

Try to find a church that will grant you a divorce from him, whether in the UAE or in a country with Christian laws.

You can file for divorce against him in the courts of the UAE, obtain a divorce decree, and then marry whoever you love.

Dear Questioner,

You can file a lawsuit to annul the Filipino marriage contract and then marry the Emirati person in accordance with Islamic law.

You can contact us via email or call our offices in Dubai or Sharjah.
