Culturally you will be punished. Your penis will be cut off.

Divorce is extremely common in West Africa. Among the Hausa, divorce occurs almost as frequently as marriage. All forms of divorce sanctioned by sharia are allowed, but repudiation is the most common. In Niger and Senegal, however, divorce is not valid until registered with a court.? In the rest of West Africa, repudiation is sufficient, meaning that many women do not actually know their marital status.? Women who initiate divorce must return the bridewealth their husband paid at the time of the marriage. If a Muslim couple divorces, the woman is expected to observe idda, the forty-day waiting period proscribed in the Quran. During this period, the ex-husband is supposed to support her, though women have no way of enforcing this (Akande 1979).?

?? Once a woman is divorced and her idda period has passed, she will generally remarry within a few months, as most West African Muslims consider it socially unacceptable for a woman of childbearing age to remain single.? Divorced women do not suffer any social stigma in Mauritania, unless their family or the family of their ex-husband blame them for the failure of the marriage. However, a few groups, such as the Daza in Chad and the Nupe in central Nigeria, allow divorced women to remain single and to serve as the head of their household.

?? Among the Fulani, divorce is relatively easy for either partner to obtain, although men are more likely to initiate it.? Prior to the final divorce, the spouses must observe a period of conjugal separation in which the wife returns to her father or guardian.? The wife's idda period begins after this separation.? The Woodaabe also recognize a process of divorce in which the wife leaves her husband and establishes an informal remarriage prior to or without proper dissolution of the first marriage (Weeks 1984). ??Among some West African groups, women keep their houses after divorce. Others expect women to return to their natal home.
