Saudi man divorces wife over cigarette found in her bag

Husband insists on parting ways after finding cigarette inside wife’s bag

Manama: A husband divorced his wife just three months after their marriage after he found a cigarette inside her bag. A relative of the wife said that her husband became furious after he discovered the cigarette and decided to divorce her despite her pleas and her claims that she did not smoke and that the cigarette was not hers, Saudi daily Okaz reported on Sunday from the southern city of Jizan.

The husband has insisted on the divorce and attempts to have him change his mind over the issue and to accept reconciliation have so far failed as he argued that he was certain that the cigarette belonged to his wife. Readers’ comments ranged between criticism of the husband for his “hasty decision” and for claiming that a cigarette was ground for divorce to full support to his decision act towards a woman “who did not tell him the whole truth about herself.”

According to official figures, around 600,000 women smoke cigarettes in Saudi Arabia, making up one tenth of the total smoking population estimated at six million smokers. The figure includes a significant proportion of expatriates and around 800,000 teenagers, mainly intermediate and high school students.

Seems like that's what he'll be humping soon enough.

She should consider herself lucky. It would not surprise me, if other Muzzies might consider an honor killing over it.

She wasn't smoking, it was her lover's cigarette. His anger is miss placed.

My friend worked in Saudi for three years, took lots of breaks in Europe. On Saudia Airlines, the official airline of Saudi Arabia, as soon as the planes pass over the border of Saudi, off came the burqas, on went the lipstick, high heels, and designer clothes, and out came the champagne. The Saudis, both men and women, partied like crazy all over the world until they climbed back on Saudia and the plane flew over the border of Saudi again.

Hypocrites? You think?

Of course it is. My point is not about cigarettes, or anything for that matter, but about how terrible Muzzies are.

Why, just because they worship a false moon god and like to abuse women and children?

You seem awfully harsh IMO, where is your love for the Muslim Brotherhood or for kids who want to learn to blow up like daddy some day?

Lots of criticism and mocking of this Saudi guy, but...

I bet quite a few anti-smoking enviro-wacko liberals would do the same thing right here in the formerly free USA, and be proud of it.

I know, I know. I have been falling down on the job, with my attitude toward Muzzies, but hey, I am working on it :-)

Is "wife's bag" maybe a euphemism for her "intimate zone?"

Regards,

If the SandMonkey had found a book or car keys, he would have beheaded her.

The reason the husband was so upset about the cigarette is that his bride is 10 years old.
