I think it is very important for the Imams from different groups to come together, and lay out what the correct procedure is to annul a marriage. For example I just asked to one Imam about this issue of contacting the husband, and if he does not respond, the woman is separated after some months, and he said this is totally wrong to do that. He also mentioned the importance of the registration of marriage at the local council, since you need to prove you're married.

Are the judgments of shariah councils in UK also valid in the secular court? Is that true?
