Data from Egypt’s Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics for 2024 recorded 16,410 customary marriage contracts involving women who had previously been divorced, out of a total of 98,582 contracts. Of those women, 7,830 married men who were already married—about 5 in 10, a 13% decrease compared with 2021. Sociology professor Hala Yousry said the true figure is higher than the reported one, attributing this to some divorced women’s fear of losing custody of their children if they remarry officially, as well as to economic circumstances. She added that customary marriage may allow a husband to evade financial obligations, and warned that wives may lose their rights and that establishing the children’s paternity can be difficult.
