In a shocking move, Sheikha Mahra bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, daughter of Dubai’s ruler, has announced her divorce from Sheikh Mana Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Bin Mana Al Maktoum on Instagram. The couple had a lavish wedding in April 2023, but Sheikha Mahra has now declared their marriage over, citing her husband’s alleged infidelity.
Khula: A Bold Move
Sheikha Mahra has taken control of her personal life by initiating a Khula, a Islamic legal term that allows a woman to seek divorce. This bold move has sparked conversations about women’s empowerment and autonomy in traditional and modern contexts.
Social Media Announcement
Sheikha Mahra posted a short message on Instagram, declaring “I divorce you” three times, followed by “Take care. Your ex-wife.” She has since removed all posts featuring Sheikh Mana from her social media page.
Support Pouring In
Friends and well-wishers have expressed solidarity with Sheikha Mahra during this challenging time. The royal’s decision to announce her divorce on social media has sparked a wider conversation about women’s rights and agency in marital relationships.
