Q: I got married to a Jordanian man. I asked for a divorce. I am moving soon to the UAE. Can my ex-husband ask for the custody of the kids or did he lose it forever? A: It is safe to move and live in Dubai. You need to forget your fiance now because you haven't had an official marriage so far…

Can the ex-husband ask for the custody of the kids upon their mother's marriage?

I am a French Morrocan Muslim woman. I got married to a Jordanian man in Dubai at the court; Islamic wedding. We moved to Jordan. We had then 3 kids. We got separated. Two years and a half later, I had no news nor any financial help whatsoever.

I asked for a divorce from France. The judgment is soon. I don’t know if he divorced me. I am moving soon to the UAE with my kids and my new fiancé. Am I safe to go live in the UAE?

Can my ex-husband ask for the custody of the kids or did he lose it forever?

Are we subject to UAE, Jordanian or French law?
