Why is divorce so easy especially if it is something that Allah dislikes immensely?

Why is divorce so easy that an entire family can break apart in one second of an angry outburst?

Seriously, this feels like an oppression and Islam is not opressive so why this?

To get married one needs witnesses, means for a mahr, and preferably to put in writing, yet a divorce, which is much more serious and has a lot more riding on it, comes into effect whether one really wants it or not because the words have been said out loud.

Why?

Wa Alayk.
Divorce is easy because Islam is easy.
We do not think about it otherwise Nikah too is very easy.
Nikah precedes a lot of responsibilities. We do not worry as to why such a thing that comes with so many responsibilities is so easy.
Indeed Divorce too comes with serious consequences. Islam does not ignore them.
And if we think that Islam ignores them then it is our fault to think that.
There are a whole set of Traditions that try to maintain Nikah.
The very fact that Divorce is the most disliked halal thing near Allah(SWT) is a tribute to the fact that Divorce is not a game in Islam.
So the technical process being simple is not an indication that the road and route to is is as easy.
I hope that helps.
