A 50-year-old Saudi woman asked for divorce after her husband lifted her face veil
while she was sleeping, local press reported.
For 30 years, the wife said she never showed her face to her husband in conformity
with the tradition of her native village near the south western Saudi city of Khamis
Mushayt.
"After all these years, he tries to commit such a big mistake," the wife told Saudi
newspaper Al-Riyadh, after she left the house in total disbelief.
She said the husband apologized and promised never to do it again.
This is not the first case of husbands who have not seen their wives' faces in
decades.
When asked how she could have kids without her husband ever seeing her face, she
replied: "Marriage is about love, not faces"
