Court to Rule on E-Mail Divorce Monday May 8 8:19 AM ET dailynews.yahoo.com DUBAI (Reuters) - A United Arab Emirates court is to rule soon in a case where a Muslim man divorced his wife by just sending her an e-mail, a newspaper reported on Friday. Under Islamic law, a man can divorce his wife by simply telling her ``I divorce you,'' if certain conditions are met. The daily Gulf News said the court in Dubai would have to rule if the notification of divorce through the Internet was valid under the Gulf Arab emirate's Islamic laws. The ex-husband, a U.S. citizen of Arab origin, has since registered at a court his decision to divorce his Saudi wife, the newspaper said.
