The only way is by establishing laws that make dowries illegal, and by prosecuting those who demand or receive a dowry for allowing their daughters to marry.
Although there were reasons why dowries were established in societies, there is no fundamental difference between the rights of a man and a woman in marriage. Women are citizens with rights, not property to be bargained to a husband.
Is it permissible if a Muslim girl is married to a Catholic boy?
In the United States, they may be legally married.
Biblically, it would be wrong for someone who considers herself Christian, such as a Catholic, to marry someone who does not.
"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?" 2 Corinthians 6:14
_________________________________________
Yes, a Muslim man can marry a Catholic woman. It is not required for a Catholic woman to convert to Islam to marry a Muslim man. Per Islam teachings and rules, it is allowed for a Muslim man to marry a Christian (Catholic, Orthodox, or Protestant, Jewish, or Muslim woman. This comes from the fact that per Islam and Quran teachings, Christians and Jews worship same God worshiped by Muslims and; accordingly; they are not called unbelievers but are called holders of the book as they are holders of the Bible and the Torah that Muslims believe they are God holy books as the Quran is.
However, as the husband, per Islam teachings, is responsible of the family financial responsibilities and expenses (even if the wife works, she is allowed not to spend on family cost of living) and the children bear the father name, children are raised up as Muslims until they become mature enough to chose their religion per their free will.
The Christian or Jewish woman after marriage is allowed to practice her ritual worship at home as well as in the church.
What is the success rate of military marriages?
- If you are in love with someone in the military then go into the relationship with your eyes open! The explanation in the story linked to the right gives you reason for a higher risk of divorce, but, if you love the person then even a day, week or month of seeing each other should keep you together. Particularly a woman deciding whether to marry a soldier or officer should be aware that he may be gone for long lengths of time, that there will be worries such as "are they coming home safe and alive" and the most dangerous of all ... LONLINESS! The wife can be left on base (housing) feeling very lonely when her spouse is off to war. However, there is no reason that two mature people can't endure this stressful time. The female spouse can get active by working, volunteering and it helps the time to pass. Writing your spouse letters, sending videos of yourself and children if and when you have any and just being there to cheer him on. Both male/female soldiers need all the cheering and upbeat news they can get and it gives them a reason to keep on fighting. I believe if you want it to work then it can! You have to decide. Don't let the stats below make you decide not to marry someone you love that just happens to be in the Armed Forces. If you love him then marry him! Marriage is a risk at best.
- If you are in love with the person then go ahead. There might be that chance that the person might die at war, but if you love him/her, are you willing to take the chance?
Yes he would still think about her and what they did. He may or may not still have feelings, if he doesn't those thoughts may go away after time. Memories will surface when they are around each other and the man should remove himself from a situation where they encounter each other if he trying to reconcile with his wife or girlfriend.

Usually, the spouse will act very strange and leave the house a lot. Also, when you ask them where they have been they may hesitate and then quickly change the subjuct. To find out if they are having an affair, just stalk them. It may be difficult, but try to make it look natural. If they ask why you're doing that, don't cover up. Just tell them the truth and ask them if they are. If they refuse to answer, you know somethings up and i would walk out. If you have children, take them with you for a few days.
