1Saudi Arabia: Is Divorce an Easy Word?Arabia Saodita:Ny fisaraham-panambadiana, teny tsy misy dikany ve?
2“Has divorce become such an easy word?” asks Saudi Arabian blogger 3abira Sabeel [Ar], in this post which discusses how different today's women are from their grandmothers and why young women and men find it easy to dissolve their unions.“Dia ho lasa teny maivana (tsy misy dikany) ve ny fisaraham-panambadiana?” hoy ny fanontanian'i 3abira Sabbel, vehivavy saodianina mpitoraka blaogy [amin'ny teny arabo], ao anatin'ny hafatra iray mandalina ny fahasamihafàn'ny vehivavy ankehitriny sy ny reniben'izy ireny, ary ny antony mahatonga ny tanora lahy sy vavy hieritreritra fa zava-mora ny manafoana ny fikambanany.
3She sets the tone for her post by describing the scene when our “illiterate” grandmothers “ruled the roost”:Nasiany tsindrim-peo ao anatin'ny hafany, amin'ny alalàn'ny famaritana ny vaninandron'ireo renibentsika “tsy nahay namaky teny sy nanoratra” “nifehy ny akany” :
4In the past, a girl would leave her father's house to her husband's house, and from her husband's house to the grave (as they used to say in the past).Fahiny, nandao ny tranon-drainy ny zazavavy iray mba handeha hiara-honina amin'ny vadiny, ary ny tranon'ny vadiny ho any amin'ny fasany (araka izay nilazàn'izy ireo azy tany aloha tany).
5Women too would shoulder the responsibility of taking care of the house and everyone in it, whether in their father's or husband's house, without complaints.Ny vehivavy no nandray ho andraikitra ny fikarakaràna manontolo ny tokantrano sy ireo izay nonina tao, na izany tao an-tranon-drainy na ny an'ny vadiny, izany rehetra izany, tsy asiana taraina.
6She used to withstand the absence of her husband went her went out for work; she would be the mother and father to her young children; and she would be a strong mother or a sister or a wife to men, who would depend on her.Mizaka ny tsy maha-eo ny vadiny rehefa lasa miasa izy, sady reny izy no ray ho an'ireo zanany ; ary tsy maintsy mijoro ho vehivavy matanjaka, amin'ny maha-reny, anabavy, ary vady azy ho an'ireo lehilahy izay miankina aminy.
7She was building her house, with her husband, and helping him run their everyday life, despite the fact that she was illiterate and uneducated.Nanàngana ny tranony, niaraka tamin'ny vadiny, ary nanampy azy tamin'ny fiainana andavanandro, na dia teo aza ny tsy fahaizany mamaky teny sy manoratra ary ny tsy fahampian'ny fahalalàna.
8That description is a far cry from today's girls, whom 3abira say no longer care about having the prefix “divorced” before their names - thanks to the intervention of “foreigners”:Toa lavitra an'ireo tovovavy ankehitriny izany famaritana izany, izay ilazàn'i 3abira fa tsy dia raharahain'izy ireo loatra ny hametàhana ny hoe “nisara-banambadiana” eo alohan'ny anaran‘izy ireo - misaotra ny fitsabahan'ireo ‘”vahiny” :
9The word “divorced” was one of the biggest insults among women of the past.Ny teny hoe “nisara-panambadiana”, fahiny, dia iray amin'ireo ompa goavana fifamelezan'ny samy vehivavy.
10They preferred to be dead rather than called divorced.Naleon'izy ireny maty toy izay antsoina hoe nisara-panambadiana.
11That was until this modern era, during which a group of foreigners intervened in our life affairs as Arabs, and nurtured the call for women's rights amongst us, and I really have no idea why that happened??!!Niainàna izany mandrapahatongan'ny taonjato maoderina, izay nisian'ny vondrona vahiny vitsivitsy nitsabaka tamin'ny fiainanay arabo, ka namokivoky ny fitakianay ny zon'ny vehivavy, ary tena tsy takatro velively izay antony nahatonga izany??!!
12Is it because we don't know how to run our lives??!Tsy haintsika ve ny mitondra ny fiainantsika??!
13Or is it because Islam humiliated women for the Pope and the Catholics among others to raise their stature?Sa ho an'ny Papa sy ny Katolika dia manao tsinontsinona loatra ny vehivavy ny Finoana Silamo raha mitàha amin'ny hafa ka nandraisana fepetra goavana?
14How did we ever allow them to interfere in our lives and call for equality, when women on their lands are complaining and are being killed with their own knives?Ahoana no hamelàntsika ny hijabajabahan-dry zareo amin'ny fiainantsika sy hitaky fitoviana, raha ny vehivavy any amin'ny taniny aza mbola mikaikaika sy matim-bono voatsatoky ny antsiny ihany?
15The result is:Ny vokany dia :
16We are now at an age where women are not at all bothered with being divorced, but the catastrophe is that they demand divorce for the most ridiculous reasons!Ankehitriny isika dia miaina amin'ny vaninandro izay tsy mampihetsi-bolomaso velively ny vehivavy raha hatao hoe nisara-panambadiana izany, fa ny tena loza dia mangataka fisarahana noho ny antony tsy dia misy dikany ry zareo!
17Being divorced has become so easy for some and for imaginary reasons.Ny hoe misara-panambadiana dia lasa tena tsy misy dikany ho an'ny sasany, eny fa na dia noho ny antony foromporonin'ny saina fotsiny aza.
183abira then lists some of the reasons for divorce, stated by women, which she finds are ridiculous:Ny mpitoraka blaogy 3abira dia manolotra ny lisitr'ireo antom-pisaraham-banambadiana, araka izay ilazàn'ireo vehivavy azy, izay hitany fa mampihomehy sy mahamenatra :
191. Her husband remarries and she asks for divorce, although our religion permits polygamy.1. Nanambady indray ny vadiny ka dia mangataka fisaraham-panambadiana izy, nefa ny fivavahantsika aza dia mamela malàlaka ny fanànana vady maro.
20I know that a lot of you taunt me for my support of polygamy, and I have previously said that I am a girl like you, with emotions which will be hurt when that happens to me.Fantatro fa maro aminareo no hanatsiny ahy amin'ny fanohànako ny fanànana vady maro, ary efa nomarihako fa tovovavy toa anareo ihany koa aho, manana fihetseham-po tsy maintsy ho tohina sy torotoro raha avy izay hahatongavan'izany amiko.
21But I thank God for bestowing me with a mind which doesn't go against what God has sanctioned.Saingy isaorako Andriamanitra nanome ahy saina amam-panahy tsy hizotra amin'izay efa nameperany rahateo.
222. She can't stand her husband's reactions, so she asks for divorce without trying to sit with him and discussing the matter with him.2. Tsy zakany ny fihetsika avy amin'ny vadiny ary dia mangataka fisaraham-panambadiana izy nefa tsy mbola nanàndrana niresaka izany tamim-badiny akory.
23Her excuse is that he should have paid attention to his behaviour and not done anything which would bother her.Ny fialantsininy dia ny hoe tokony ho nitandrina ny fomba amam-pihetsiny ralehilahy ary tsy nanao zavatra manorisory an-dravehivavy.
243. Marriage isn't romantic!?3. Tsy fiainana nofinofy tonga lafatra ny fanambadiana!?
25He doesn't know how any words of love and flirtation :( Or other lame excuses which just make me mad.Tsy mahalala izy na dia tenim-pitiavana na fambaboana iray monja aza Na fialàna bàla hafa mahalasa adala ahy.
26What is strange is that women hang on to divorce, regardless of what counsellors and good doers tell them.Ny tena manahirana dia mifikitra mafy amin'ny fisaraham-panambadiana ny vehivavy, na inona na inona lazain'ireo olona tsara sitra-po sy manome toro-hevitra tsara ho azy ireo.
27The blogger admits that men too are to blame in the increasing trend of divorce.Miaiky ny mpitoraka blaogy fa mànana andraikitra koa ao anatin'izany fiakàran'ny fisaraham-panambadiana izany ny lehilahy.
28She notes:Hoy izy manamarika :
29I don't want to blame women only.Tsy te-handiso be fotsiny amin'izao ny vehivavy aho.
30Men, at this age, are equal to women, and they too should enjoy a llevel of wisdom and the ability to run their lives.Ny lehilahy, amin'izao andro iainantsika izao, dia mitovy lenta amin'ny vehivavy, ary izy ireo koa dia tokony homena tombom-pahendrena sy fahafàhana mitantana ny fiainany.
31I have heard and witnessed a lot of divorce stories with lame excuses.Naheno aho, ary vavolombelon'ny raharaham-pisaraham-banambadiana maro avy amin'ny fangatàhana tsy mitombina.
32Among men's excuses to divorce women are:Raha momba ny olana aroson'ny lehilahy ho antom-pisarahana indray, dia ireto no voaangony :
331. She doesn't know how to respect me - without him even trying to improve the situation or talk to her about his likes and dislikes.1. Tsy mahay manàja ahy izy - ary tsy manao izay hampivoarana ny toe-draharaha anefa ralehilahy na tsy miresaka aminy (amin-dravehivavy) izay tiany sy tsy zàkany.
342. My marriage is traditional, and I don't see it as successful!2. Fanambadiana ara-pomban-dràzana ny ahy ary tsinjoko ho tsy mahomby!
353. I did it when I was angry - and why?3. Nataoko izao [fisaraham-panambadiana] satria tezitra aho - satria nahoana?
36To prove he is a man.Mba hanaporofoana fa lehilahy izy.
37In conclusion, 3abira advises her readers to stick to the values of the past and not let modernity and its trends to destroy their family lives.Ho famarànana, manoro hevitra i 3abira ho an'ireo izay mamaky azy mba hijanona mandrakariva akaikin'ireo soatoavina taloha ka tsy hamela ny fomba maoderina sy ny fironany hamotika ny fiainam-pianakaviany.
38She says:Hoy izy :
39Had we insisted on our traditions and values, we wouldn't have been in the situation we are in today.Raha nisisika mafy nifikitra tamin'ny fomban-drazantsika sy ny maha isika antsika isika, tsy ho tonga amin'izao toe-javatra misy antsika ankehitriny izao.
40The reason why we are here today is because we are calling for development when we don't even know what development is.Ny anton'ny nahatonga antsika amin'izao dia ny fitakiantsika fivoarana nefa tsy haintsika akory hoe fivoarana manao ahoana.
41According to media reports, about 62 per cent of marriages in Saudi Arabia end in divorce.Araka ny loharanom-baovao iray [amin'ny teny anglisy], dia manodidina ny 62%-n'ny fanambadiana no miafara amin'ny fisaraham-panambadiana any Arabia Saodita.
42Another source, puts the rate at 38pc.Loharano iray hafa [amin'ny teny anglisy] kosa no milaza fa 38% ny fisaraham-panambadiana.
