“…To sum up, a religious marriage is basically necessary for religious reasons and is the procedure to follow in order to be married as a Muslim, but also in response to cultural norms, legal situations, and as a solution to personal needs and problems. This makes their choices and decisions a very wide and individual matter and represents one of the clear findings for a number of studies in this field outside a Muslim-majority population (Akhtar et al 2018, 367-375, O'Sullivan and Jackson 2017, 22-23, Jaraba 2020.…”

This paper studies Muslim marriages and divorces in Islamic centers in Italy, which are influenced by religion, and conducted outside the scope of Italian laws. The paper is basically empirical research, based on interviews with imāms in various Islamic centers, Muslim women and men who have chosen to refer to Islamic centers for their marriage or divorce, and family counselors following different cases. It investigates the motivations behind these practices by analyzing the fieldwork data, and demonstrates the related socio-legal consequences, specifically in relation to the role of Islamic centers and imāms in these marriages and divorces. The current state of religious rights for Muslims in Italy, and the lack of knowledge about the circumstances and reasons for these practices at national level are taken into consideration.

“…We have relatively little ethnographic data about them. Contemporary anthropological research has primarily written about the phenomenon in connection with certain minority groups, such as Europeans (e.g., British Muslims), as cases of unregistered, unofficial marriages (Akhtar 2018), and LGBTQ weddings as alternatives to Western ones (see Reczek et al 2009). Although unregistered, unofficial unions are very frequent, not only among the minority groups, but among the majority, ordinary cases (they occur from the United States through Great Britain, in many places), lacking social scientific analysis, we can only get information about these from wedding portals on the internet.…”

During the pandemic, Hungary was the only country in the world where the number of marriages not only decreased but also increased. Parallel to this, in the five years prior to the pandemic there were not as many divorces in Hungary as afterwards. Every year since late socialism, there were at least 10,000 fewer new marriages than marriages ending in divorce or death; a trend that was broken in 2019 when the government introduced new loans for married people at a favorable interest rate, representing a quasi-money injection to support people officially getting married (instead of merely cohabiting). Based on my digital anthropological research, I focus on the complex relationship between getting married and the end-of-marriage rituals. I found that the changes in the meanings of marriage influenced not only getting married but also the eventual end-of-marriage rituals. All these factors, as well as the specific reasons for divorce and separation (e.g., the desire to remarry), are related to the way in which end-of-marriage rituals are scripted and interpreted.
