Imam Dr. Ahmed Albo Ali also said, 'Islam has given full rights to widows and divorced women; They can marry again if they want. But the unfortunate thing is that many men want to marry such a girl; Who has never been married before. Due to which widows and divorced women are also not getting a chance to remarry. That is why the number of women in Saudi Arabia who are past the age of marriage is gradually increasing.

Muhammad Al-Salim, Director of Al-Wyoun City Family Development Center, told the media that divorced women are viewed differently in Arab society; There are also social prejudices in many areas. A social stigma is attached to divorced women. Divorced women are blamed by many for house breakups. Bad thoughts and comments are also made about them. Those concerned also think that these problems need to be overcome.
It should be noted that the Saudi authorities also provide great opportunities for expatriates due to the increase in the number of marriageable women. It is said that Saudi women will be given monthly salary and pension only if they marry. It is said that if an expatriate marries a Saudi woman, he can enjoy salary benefits including pension.
