Firstly, that was your destiny, don't mean others will face same. What is written for us will happen no matter what. It's all about what Allah wills not your will not mine or anyone else. I been married to 2 different foreigners and had wonderful experience. We did not agree on settings so we simply divorced without any fight. He is pakistani Muslim. Some have had bad experiences with these men but I didn't. So it's about individual destinies and not certain group of ppl. How do you judge?! Muslim man have the right and free will if they want to remain married with someone or not. Same like women. A father will have to answer to Allah for his children, not mothers. His intention is very good because he struggle to have better life to please Allah not women. However, when Muslim man divorce he must do it according to Islam. Under certain/extreme circumstances can we make drastic moves as long as intention is to do right. Muslim men are different from non muslim men simply because they fear Allah and want to follow islam to make Allah pleased or simply fear of being thrown in hell. They don't mean to hurt ppl simply it's there fear to plz Allah. But to judge all Algerians for a wrong of one is to judge a book for its color. Islam is very open minded religion that gives men rights of marrying who they like as long as she believes in Allah be Christian or Jew, but Allah clearly suggests that marrying a Muslim women is best due to her same belief as his. For this very reason do many marriages fails due to differences in belief. Child gets caught up in between mothers way or fathers way. Allah clearly states in Quran that child is of his fathers religion. This why Muslim women can only marry Muslim. I hope this information has helped you understand why Muslim men do what they do. If you don't fear Allah, then you can not understand.
