This thesis examines marital discord and dissolution within the Muslim community in the Western Cape. The writer contends that the rising incidence of divorce in a community may indicate underlying social upheaval especially within its family unit. Marriage and divorce reveal individual characteristics, faulty norms and disfuntionality that may be generalised to greater societal trends within a community. The aim of this study is to identify the main reasons and contributing factors that lead to divorce. Such data will assist in planning and supporting proactive communal programmes to reduce the high divorce rate in the community. 2015-09-23T07:34:23Z 2015-09-23T07:34:23Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/14057 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
