What we should do is see whether the Catholic religion (and other Christian religions in general) have any definite rules in their own religion (that is, from their own religions, not leaning on laws of nation-states) explicitly saying that the mother may have visitation rights if there is a divorce. My guess would be no, since how can one make rules for something that is not accepted in one's religion (like asking Muslims to make rules on how to eat pork, a totally senseless suggestion).

So in such a case the Muslim would be in a better situation, since there are at least rules on what to do when there is a divorce, while in many Christian religions there is no acceptance of a divorce, and as a consequence no rules as to what happens when it occurs.

The situation I was talking about related to Husbands talking their children without their wife's consent to another country and ignoring any attempts at contact, giving no explanation as to why they leave, effectively kidnapping their own children. No clues given before it happens. No marriage breakdown.

Since most christian countries go by civil law, in that case the Husband or Father has broken the law and rightly so. No parent has the right to do such a thing. It is not in the childs interest. Clearly if there is abuse involved that is a different scenario bu generally speaking most cases of muslim fathers kidnapping their children are without warning, leaving the mother and child devastated.

Very sad and difficult situations. It is against Catholicism to divorce anyway!!! How ridiculous.
