A Saudi groom has divorced his bride on their wedding night after seeing her face for the first time when the photographer asked them to pose for pictures.

The couple, from the Western Saudi town of Medinah, had agreed to marry each other despite having not met face to face - a popular custom in certain Middle Eastern countries.

But when the bride removed her veil and smiled for the camera, her new husband leapt to his feet in disgust.

Take it back! When the bride removed her veil and smiled for the camera, her new husband leapt to his feet in disgust and declared, 'You are not the one I had imagined. I am sorry, but I divorce you' (stock image)

'You are not the girl I want to marry,' he declared. 'You are not the one I had imagined. I am sorry, but I divorce you.'

According to local daily Okaz, the bride immediately collapsed in a fit of tears as panicked wedding guests stepped in to try to resolve the dispute. 

SAUDI HUSBAND DIVORCES WIFE AFTER SHE FAILS TO REPLY TO HIS WHATSAPP TEXT MESSAGE

A Saudi husband has divorced his wife after she failed to reply to a WhatsApp text message.

The man, who got married two years ago, sent the message from his office and waited for a response from his wife. But none came. 

 

Thinking something must be wrong, reported Emirates 24/7, he rushed home to find her watching television.

When he asked her why she did not respond, she said she was busy chatting with friends on WhatsApp and wanted to reply later. He divorced her instantly, the report added.

'I sent her messages on Whatsapp and knew she had read them because of the latest update on the application but still she didn't answer me or acknowledged my messages,' he was quoted as saying by the Gulf News. 

The husband, in his 30s, said he was frustrated by his wife's seemingly endless interest in using her phone for chatting with friends and family. 

 

But their efforts were to no avail.

 

'The groom said he had not been able to see his bride's face before marriage,' Okaz reported. 'When he divorced her, the bride collapsed and the wedding turned into a night of tears.'

News of the jilting was met with anger on social media. 

 

Afra wrote on one social media network: 'He caused her great pain through his irresponsible attitude, and he deserves to suffer.

'He should appreciate that beauty is in the character, not the face. 

'Unfortunately, many young people today are interested only in looks and ignore values and morals.

'May God give her a better husband who will appreciate her for who and what she is.'

Abu Nass added: 'He is not man enough to assume his responsibilities. He is totally, completely insensitive. 

'Nobody has forced him to marry her. He should have insisted on seeing her before the wedding and the engagement, and not wait until the wedding night. 

'May he always be a loser and may he be deprived of getting married at all. He is not a man and he lacks basic feelings.'

If that is her in the picture there was no reason to leap to his feet in disgust. She might not be a beauty queen but she certainly isn't ugly.

She should have spit in his face and then kicked him in the nuts.

 That's right!  You live in a country where "war on women" means no free birth control!  Perspective!

Exactly. Christianity holds women in very HIGH regard. The first people that Jesus appeared to was women. Women were part of Jesus" inner circle. Christianity expects men to "love your wives as Christ loved the Church and gave Himself up for it". AKA men are SUPPOSED to love their wives with self sacrificing love.

That was a "file photo". The happy couple didn't get that far.

 Ok, thanks.  Then perhaps she had been disfigured by acid or some other atrocity they do to women over there.

That's so sad. I would be devastated. It is mean and shallow. I hope he gets a wicked case of crabs down there and they chew his little wiener off!

There's nothing funny about this at all.

It's really jacked up how Muslims explain this stuff away. I dated two different Muslims when I was single. They were both doctors. Well educated. One I dated for a short time and we broke up because he was an egotistical doctor. The other one was really nice and I tried to learn and understand his beliefs but I never really could. He said that women are so revered that they cover them up so that others don't covet them. He said it's like buying a Lamborghini and then parking it on the corner. He said you wouldn't do that. You'd keep it covered in your garage so it wouldn't get damaged. Because once it's scratched or damaged in any way then it's not like it originally was. He also tried to explain to me that men are weak and that's why women are given the responsibility of raising kids. Because women have to be MORE PURE in order to raise and teach and train kids up in the way they are supposed to be. There was a lot more but I never could get behind it. I met some really nice Muslim people. Kind, caring, and welcoming. I also met some really bad a holes that believed in beating their wives.

This woman is now divorced and will be treated poorly because of it. It will be difficult for her to find another husband. Her family may kill her b/c of shame.

Yeah - that kind of thing is soooooo funny.

Yes, at times I agree. But, I dont' get the "funny" comment about a country that treats women in this fashion.

 Yeah what is funny Lilly?  

 I have never weighed in on a Lilly / Flan bicker fest before, but even I have to agree with Flan here.  I have yet to see what Lilly could even begin to see as being funny?  Even if this were NOT a Muslim country, what the groom did was totally and completely wrong.  Had this been a western wedding and the groom had pulled a stunt like this, at that moment, he would have been castigated all over the internet for being boorish.  

So why is it that a Muslim doing this is somehow "funny" Lily?  

You know for a Christian, and I am a church going every sunday, practicing what CHRIST did and said in the New Testament, taking my bible studies Christian myself, your lack of compassion in this moment right now is so very sad.

Goodness.

It's a funny thing. Like something from a sitcom.

I found it funny. No I didn't roll on the floor laughing till I cried.

It's funny like that is crazy funny.

Oh I don't know why I am trying to explain anything to anyone.

I found something humorous.

There can be humor in serious things.
