According to the discretionary authority of the competent court and in the event that the parties do not agree on the conditions or controls for the financial rights resulting from a civil marriage, the judge may oblige either of the married couple to pay a lump sum to indemnify the other party after the divorce, taking into account the following calculation criteria: 1. The number of years of marriage, so that the larger number of years of marriage shall give rise to larger amounts of compensation. 2. The extent to which the husband or wife was the cause of the failure of the marital relationship through negligence or fault or perpetration of any act that led to divorce, such as infidelity or abandonment. 3. Compensation by either of the married couple of the other for any material or moral damage suffered as a result of the divorce. 4. The economic, financial and social status of each spouse depending on the accounting expert report. 5. Level of education and university degrees for the married couple. 6. The age of the wife, so that the value of alimony decreases with the decrease in the age of the wife and vice versa. 7. Level of interest of the wife in taking care of the children or not. 8. The husband’s requirement that the wife should or should not work. 9. The standard of living that both the wife and children are accustomed to during the marriage period. 10. The extent to which each spouse contributes to the other party’s wealth. 11. The health conditions of the married couple. 12. The wife’s employment status and her employability. 13. The number of children, their ages and their need for care. 14. Financial dependence of either of the married couple on the other. 15. Any other criteria that the competent court deems necessary.
