The Mosaic Law stated: “In case a man takes a woman... as a wife, it must also occur that if she should find no favor in his eyes because he has found something indecent on her part, he must also write out a certificate of divorce for her and put it in her hand and dismiss her from his house. ”
ذكرت الشريعة الموسوية :‏ « اذا اتخذ رجل امرأة وصار لها بعلا ،‏ فإن لم تجد حظوة في عينيه لأنه وجد فيها امرا شائنا ،‏ يكتب لها شهادة طلاق ويسلمها الى يدها ويصرفها من بيته » .‏
