if not at just 15 minutes,
it must be a strong contender, it happened like this, it was all about the dowry, which is a common in Dubai, in this case made in two halves, as per the contract the groom and his father-in-law had signed, the
newly-married man agreed to pay the bride’s father 100,000 Dirhams ($27,224) in
two installments – 50,000 Dirhams ($13,612) upon the signing of the marriage
contract inside the Sharia office, and the other 50,000 Dirhams upon leaving
the court building, the first half paid, but as soon as he and his bride left the court building, his
father-in-law immediately demanded the other half, the newly-married man asked
the bride’s father to wait just five minutes, assuring him that the money was
in the car and he had nothing to worry about, however, the father-in-law insisted that the groom send one
of his friends or a relative to get the money from his car so he could be paid
immediately, this discussion allegedly happened under the scrutinizing eyes of
the newlyweds friends and family, which made the groom feel “insulted and
demeaned”, He went back into the court house and divorced his wife less than 15
minutes after marrying her, “The groom felt insulted and demeaned by his father-in-law,”
a lawyer handling the case told Gulf News, “He told the bride’s father that he did not want
his daughter as his wife and divorced her in less than 15 minutes from signing
the marriage contract.” which begs two questions I can not find the answers to, firstly who paid for the wedding cake? secondly did the groom get the first half of his dowry back?
