Arabs liberal in ideas of divorce in Dara mountains
In the Dara mountains of southern Arabia divorce is easy for men who can end a marriage simply by saying so, with the wife returning to her father and a portion of livestock. Women can also divorce by returning half the marriage price, enabling both spouses to remarry quickly. No qadti sanction needed, and customs vary with circumstances, including gifts to older wives when polygamy occurs.
