The head of the Personal Status Court in Dubai, Judge Khaled Al Hosani, said that foreign spouses (of non-Arab nationalities) are more flexible in their family disputes than their Arab counterparts, for several reasons, including: their enjoyment of the culture of dialogue and the ability to manage family problems, and give priority to the interests of children, as well as They are less inclined to stubbornness or behave aggressively towards the other by each party, and it is rare for parents to interfere in spouses' disputes, which injects many disputes and prevents the problems from getting worse.

He explained that the Personal Status Court examined complex disputes between spouses of foreign nationalities, but their number remained small compared to other Arabs, who usually deal with a great deal of intensity and aggression.

In detail, Judge Khaled Al Hosani confirmed, in an interview with "Emirates Today", that judges of personal status courts in the Emirates in general, and Dubai in particular, have openness to all cultures by virtue of their upbringing in a country characterized by diversity and which includes about 200 nationalities. Disagreements, and the realization that what may be justified in one case, may not be valid in another case, pointing out that the difference in judgments is usually based on different factors that the judge assesses according to the nature of the case, the nationality and culture of the parties.

Regarding the complexity of family disputes and their attainment of a great degree of intensity and clash, especially among Arabs, Al Hosani said that based on the cases considered by the court, it can be said that foreign spouses or fathers are more flexible and civilized in their family disputes, for several reasons, the most important of which is their enjoyment of the culture of dialogue, so the spouses often discuss in a way. Quiet about all the outstanding matters between them before the official separation, and they prevail over the interests of their children over their personal interests, then they come to the court to document what they have agreed upon, and they remain friends after the divorce, because they realize that this is the healthy framework on which they want to raise their children, and their conviction that divorce imposes responsibility on them Greater towards children.

He added that foreigners have a greater ability to manage problems, and they are well aware that marriage is not a company that ended up in divorce, rather it is a continuous relationship as long as there are children, and it is rare for parents to interfere in the foreign spouses' disputes, stressing that this is an important factor, because parents often increase The size of the disagreements and their intervention is negative in most cases.

He pointed out that, on the other hand, many Arab husbands behave with a great deal of stubbornness and aggression, contrary to what is required by the Islamic religion, so each of them deals with the other in a kind of parity, and does their utmost to take revenge and harm the other, as if it is a war, without regard to the children's interest Who are often the losers.

The role of parents in family disputes

The head of the Personal Status Court in Dubai, Judge Khaled Al Hosani, confirmed that parents play a prominent role, usually, in family disputes between Arab husbands, so that the wife finds she resort to her family as soon as the dispute occurs, and the clash expands, and goes beyond the small family circle to the large family, pointing out that There are cases of Arab spouses who decide to end the relationship in an amicable manner, and settle in the court, and the parents refuse to do so, and insist on judicial escalation as a way of revenge.

Al Hosani stressed the need to observe the teachings of the tolerant Islamic religion, whether in marriage or divorce, and to deal with grace and attendance upon separation, indicating that divorce is not synonymous with family disintegration at all, as it may be a solution to a larger problem, but on the condition that the separation is sophisticated, humane and taking into account the interest of children.
