Well it really depends on where they got married. If they got married here under the jurisdiction of UAE Law, then she can just walk into Dubai Courts here, next to Maktoum Bridge and seek help. If she was married outside the UAE then she'll probably have to get a lawyer involved etc.
At this moment of time, because she is muslim, she has the right to ask for a divorce. The Judge over here will probably emphasise on a 3 months separation, and then stamp the divorce papers.
