Advisory to Qazis to tell bridegrooms not to go for triple talaq: AIMPLB to SC

NEW DELHI: The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) in an affidavit to the Supreme Court told that it would issue an advisory to 'Qazis' to tell bridegrooms that they will not resort to triple talaq to annul their marriage. AIMPLB said that it has decided to issue an advisory asking Qazis to tell bridegroom at the time of execution of 'Nikahnama' (marriage contract) that they would not resort to "three divorces in one sitting" in case of differences as it was an "undesirable practice in Shariat". "At the time of performing ‘Nikah’ (Marriage), the person performing the ‘Nikah’ will advise the Bridegroom/Man that in case of differences leading to Talaq the Bridegroom/Man shall not pronounce three divorces in one sitting since it is an undesirable practice in Shariat," the affidavit said. Also Read: What Quran exactly says about triple talaq "At the time of performing ‘Nikah’ (Marriage), the person performing the ‘Nikah’ will advise both the Bridegroom/Man and the Bride/Woman to incorporate a condition in the ‘Nikahnama’ to exclude resorting to pronouncement of three divorces by her husband in one sitting," it said. The Supreme Court on May 18 completed its hearing on triple talaq and reserved its verdict on a batch of petitions challenging constitutional validity of the practice among Muslims. Senior counsel Kapil Sibal appearing for the All Indian Muslim Personal Law Board had told the apex court that the Board will issue an advisory to all Qazis. A five-judge constitution bench, headed by Chief Justice J.S. Khehar, heard the issue for six days from May 11 during which parties, including the central government, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board, All India Muslim Women Personal Law Board and others made submissions.
