Why are Muslim marriages not recognized in the UK?
Many Muslim couples marry under a religious ceremony called the Nikah that is not legally recognized in the UK. In jurisdictions such as the UK and the US, marriage is a civil legal status acquired through a legal civil ceremony. In addition to the Nikah, a civil marriage must be performed at a Registry office according to UK law. Otherwise the marriage is not valid and the parties do not acquire any enforceable legal rights.The laws do not single out Muslim marriages in this instance. Any marriage performed by only a religious ceremony would not be legally recognized.

Do you have to get a divorce in England to marry a Muslim in Algeria?
Assuming that you have a legal heterosexual marriage in the UK (that has government certification), that marriage will be recognized in Algeria. As a result, in order to marry an Algerian, you will need to get a divorce. If you have a same-sex marriage in the UK, you will not need to get a divorce in the UK to marry the Muslim in Algeria, but that marriage will not be recognized in the UK (because you would now be married to two people contemporaneously). If you are not married in the UK, then, obviously, you will not need a divorce to get married.
