\n\tIn the aforementioned scenario, it will be advisable that you forward your case to the Islamic Shariah Council in Dewsbury, who can annul your marriage.  Contact:<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAn Islamic Shari Committee can annul a marriage if they have at least three just persons sitting therein.  They should all be knowledgeable and well versed in Shariah laws on marriage and divorce.  An annulment issued by such a committee is valid in the Shariah.   (The Complete System of Talaq p.211)<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAn annulment of marriage can be effected in any of the following situations:<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
