A Study of Triple Talaq: The Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill

Examining the Legal and Gender Implications of Triple Talaq

Abstract

Talaq is an Islamic word for divorce, indicating disintegration of marriage when a Muslim man can extreme every conjugal tie with his wife. Under the Muslim law, Triple Talaq implies freedom from the relationship of marriage, inevitably or promptly, where the man, by essentially expressing the word 'talaq' multiple times, closes his marriage. Right now divorce is called Triple Talaq, otherwise called 'talaq-e-biddat'. The Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act of 1937 had authorized and permitted the act of Triple Talaq which gave a Muslim spouse uncommon benefits over his wife.
