Title: 12-year-old Saudi Arabian girl in divorce battle with 80-year-old husband!!!

       I am always disappointed on how our men-folk relates to women, especially when it comes to divorce. I also always remind people that, The Holy Qur'an can be used at any time of any era or civilisation to solve contemporary problems. Well done Saudia!!!

      A 12-year-old girl fighting to divorce her 80-year-old husband in Saudi Arabia is to receive legal assistance from the Government in what could become a test case for banning child marriage in the kingdom.
