Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Triple talaq, or talaq-e-bidat, is one of the most debated issues in the Muslim world. From antiquity, the Muslim faith has been plagued by the portrayal of Muslim men regularly misusing this perceived “right” to divorce their wives instantly by simply uttering “talaq” thrice. The Supreme Court of India, in the landmark judgment of Shayara Bano v. Union of India, has taken the step to declare this form of talaq unconstitutional and to strike down its practice. In Triple Talaq: Examining Faith, Salman Khurshid, who intervened to offer the court an amicus brief in the “Triple Talaq case”, offers a straightforward yet comprehensive overview of this complicated issue. Explaining the reasons behind the court’s decision, he dives deep into other aspects of this practice: why it is wrong; why it has thrived; what was the judicial history of this issue; what the Quran and Muslim religious leaders say about it; and what the comparative practices in other countries are. A handy guide to this landmark decision and what it means for Muslims in India, this book is written not just for the theologian, but also for the common reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays and articles captures the beginning of the Muslim women’s movement in India in the last two decades.

This journey was undertaken by ordinary women under their own leadership. This collection highlights the challenges faced by women. It also celebrates successes such as the organization of women into groups, abolition of triple talaq and women’s entry into the mazar of Haji Ali Dargah. This book is a collection of articles written by authors, individually and jointly in various newspapers, magazines, journals and other publications. It challenges the misogynist regressive norms for women in family set by patriarchal religious groups. It calls for state accountability in providing safety, security and equality to Muslim citizens. Based on experiences and insights from grounded struggle of ordinary women, these essays give hope and provide strength in addressing discrimination through shared vision and collective democratic action. It calls out the failure of conservative religious leadership as well as elected representatives in providing an enabling environment to the community and particularly, women. It calls out certain feminists for their dual standards and for unsuccessful attempts to weaken the movement for reform in family law led by ordinary Muslim women.

Book excerpt: This book ‘Triple Talaq’ has been written to enlighten the readers about the most burning issues of talaq in current times. For the years the triple talaq was generally the topic of discussion among my colleagues and other intellectuals of the society. They generally asked me questions regarding the triple talaq and tried to satisfy them. However, after a deep study, I have tried to satisfy the readers through this book and hope the government would also learn a lot for the new legislation about the triple talaq. The controversy regarding the triple talaq and to know the details about the subject in the Shariah (Islamic Law or Revealed Law of Allah Almighty), motivated the author to study deeply on the subject and write this book “Triple Talaq” for the readers. It is a humble beginning to understand the details of the talaq and follow accordingly in the light of the Holy Quraan and Hadeeth (Traditions i.e. acts and sayings of Prophet Mohammad PBUH). This work is neither a final work nor the guidelines or any community or sect. Holy Quran and Hadeeth are the only sources to follow the right path, and the Muslim jurists are the best propounder. This work is meant for the enhancement of the knowledge of the general readers. I shall be happy if the people shall read this work and give feedback as well as the better suggestion on the subject of talaq or triple talaq. I will also request the government to rethink on the subject as it is a matter of faith and, undoubtedly, very sensitive. Marriage under Shariat is a civil contract between man and woman in the presence of the witnesses and it is meant to last for the lifetime of the spouses. The marital co-existence can only last for a long time if it is established on mutual love, compassion and respect for each other. After the marriage, by virtue of this love and affection, the spouses are able to live together in a goodly manner by fulfilling each other's rights. However, sometimes a situation may arise where the husband hates the wife or vice versa. In such a situation, Islam admonishes and enjoins them to bear with each other and find means of reconciliation. However, the hatred may be increased in such a way that it renders the relationship between them so strained that the continuation of their union becomes undesirable. The spouses, under the circumstance, are allowed to terminate the marriage by pronouncing talaq. The marriage termination right is primarily vested in the husband. Thus, he can terminate it on his own initiative through Talaq-e-Ahsan, Talaq-e-Hasan, and Talaq-e-Biddat or triple talaq. This right, however, is not absolute because the marriage can also be terminated at the instance of the wife which is called Khul or Khula. Both the parties can also obtain the divorce through the judicious process. Among all the procedures of talaq, the Talaq-e-Biddat or triple talaq is more controversial right from the lifetime of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) to the current period. Almost all the Muslim countries have passed the legislation regarding this process, in the light of the Holy Quraan and Hadeeth, for the amelioration in the Muslim society according to the need of the time. In India, the current government has also started a step in this regard, but due to the mismatch of the Shariat with the parliamentary legislation, it has made the situation more complex. Naturally, the problem is related to the Muslim community, and the government must have involved the Muslim jurists in the compilation of the Bill. The first chapter of the book is ‘Meaning, Definition, and Concept of Talaq’. In this chapter, the full introduction of talaq including its origin, meaning, and definition has been clearly defined. It has also been defined that how the Islam has given a novel idea and practice of marriage and separation or talaq. The concept of talaq is to provide more freedom to the people in the worldly affairs. Different types of people can use the idea at different times and circumstances. While other religions fixed the marriage as bondage, the Islam defined the marriage as a civil contract and one can freely untie the contract in unavoidable circumstances. The second chapter ‘Types of Talaq’ deals all types of talaq in detail such as Talaq-e-Ahsan, Talaq-e-Hasan, Talaq-e-Biddat, Ila, Faskh, Lian, Mubarat, Khula, Dhihar and separation from the judicious process. It has also been discussed that at what time and circumstances which talaq is permissible according to the Shariah. The ideology of different sects of Islam and other Islamic jurists has been widely discussed with the evidences of the Holy Quraan and Hadeeth. All the means of separation are judiciously proved in a scientific manner. The Third chapter ‘Talaq and Freedom and Rights of Women’ throws enough light on the freedom of women and their rights in the Muslim society. Islam provides its women the freedom to choose the life partner and demand separation if the married life becomes un-adjusting. After the talaq, she can marry the former husband or to another or to whom she likes the most. The women also can hold the property and jewelry for her better use in the future. She is entitled to claim the money from her husband, but not at all necessary to share her money with her husband. She is free, not even to feed her children and serve her in-laws. The fourth chapter ‘Triple Talaq and its Religious and Legal Entity’ deals the subject in the light of the Holy Quraan and Hadeeth. Different Ayats (Sentences) of many Surats (Chapters) of Holy Quraan related to talaq have been widely discussed. Many Hadeeth compiled by many eminent Islamic scholars have been quoted as proof related to the matters of talaq. It has been summarized in this chapter that Allah Almighty and Prophet (PBUH) have provided the talaq as a novel idea for freedom, emancipation, peaceful living and a long-standing social setup. The fifth chapter is ‘Triple Talaq: Worldwide Legislation’ in which the legislation of almost all Muslim countries related to the triple talaq has been discussed. It has been seen that most of the Muslim countries have banned triple talaq by treating it as a social evil and the most sinful act. These Muslim countries have taken the plea that the second Caliph Umar Ibn Khattab had made the ruling to discourage the triple talaq. Even he had punished some of the pronouncers of triple talaq. However, it must be cleared that there is no criminalization of triple talaq in any Muslim country’s legislation, although, they have discouraged and even banned the same. The sixth chapter is the ‘Triple talaq in India’. In this chapter, the circumstances and frequency of triple talaq in India have been discussed. The court cases, including the Ishrat Jahan case of the Supreme Court, the decision of the Supreme Court regarding triple talaq, the triple bill passed by the Lok Sabha, discussion of the Bill in Rajya Sabha, etc. have been discussed in detail. In the last, by analyzing various social aspects, it has been suggested that the triple talaq is the most hateful and sinful act among all permissible things in the Shariat. It must be discouraged by the legislation, but the criminalization of triple talaq or banning the same is not at all appreciable. I hope that the information given in this work is worth reading and, undoubtedly, it will enlighten the youths to avoid the triple talaq or choose the better option of talaq even in unavoidable circumstances. I am sure that the government would also reconsider its policy regarding the triple talaq and would leave the matter for the Muslim jurists to settle according to the Shariat. At last, I would like to say that this work is not complete at all and all scholars are humbly invited to write on this subject to guide the youths of present and future generations to adopt the right path of Shariat and avoid the triple talaq which is not only the most sinful act but also a curse to the society. In the last, I feel it my pleasant duty to acknowledge the kindness, advice, and help, which I received from my respected Islamic scholars like Mufti Mohammad Zahid, Maulana Ansarullah, Hafiz Jamaluddin and many other Islamic scholars. I am also indebted to my colleagues, friends, and relatives Dr. Mohammad Isa Gauhar, Dr. Tufail Ahmad, Advocate Rizwan Ahmad, Dr. Siraj Ahmad, Master Nisar Ahmad, Dr. Shameem Ahmad, Mr. Naseem Ahmad, etc. without whose encouragement, moral support and active cooperation, this work would not have been possible. I am grateful to my wife Imrana Anjum, my children Lubna, Iram, Anam, and Sadaf for their kind support and constant encouragement. Dr. Aijaz Ahmad

Book excerpt: Islamic substantive law, otherwise called branches of the law (furu? al-fiqh), covers the textual provisions and jurisprudential rulings relating to specific transactions under Islamic law. It is to Islamic substantive law that the rules of Islamic legal theory are applied. The relationship between Islamic legal theory and Islamic substantive law is metaphorically described by Islamic jurists as a process of ?cultivation? (istithmar), whereby the qualified jurist (mujtahid), as the ?cultivator?, uses relevant rules of legal theory to harvest the substantive law on specific issues in form of ?fruits? (thamarat) from the sources. The articles in this volume engage critically with selected substantive issues in Islamic law, including family law; law of inheritance; law of financial transactions; criminal law; judicial procedure; and international law (al-siyar). These areas of substantive law have been selected due to their contemporary relevance and application in different parts of the Muslim world today. The volume features an introductory overview of the subject as well as a comprehensive bibliography to aid further research.

Download or read book Marriage Money and Divorce in Medieval Islamic Society written by Yossef Rapoport and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-04-21 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High rates of divorce, often taken to be a modern and western phenomenon, were also typical of medieval Islamic societies. By pitting these high rates of divorce against the Islamic ideal of marriage,Yossef Rapoport radically challenges usual assumptions about the legal inferiority of Muslim women and their economic dependence on men. He argues that marriages in late medieval Cairo, Damascus and Jerusalem had little in common with the patriarchal models advocated by jurists and moralists. The transmission of dowries, women's access to waged labour, and the strict separation of property between spouses made divorce easy and normative, initiated by wives as often as by their husbands. This carefully researched work of social history is interwoven with intimate accounts of individual medieval lives, making for a truly compelling read. It will be of interest to scholars of all disciplines concerned with the history of women and gender in Islam.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divorcing Traditions is an ethnography of Islamic legal expertise and practices in India, a secular state in which Muslims are a significant minority and where Islamic judgments are not legally binding. Katherine Lemons argues that an analysis of divorce in accordance with Islamic strictures is critical to the understanding of Indian secularism. Lemons analyzes four marital dispute adjudication forums run by Muslim jurists or lay Muslims to show that religious law does not muddle the categories of religion and law but generates them. Drawing on ethnographic and archival research conducted in these four institutions—NGO-run women's arbitration centers (mahila panchayats); sharia courts (dar ul-qazas); a Muslim jurist's authoritative legal opinions (fatwas); and the practice of what a Muslim legal expert (mufti) calls "spiritual healing"—Divorcing Traditions shows how secularism is an ongoing project that seeks to establish and maintain an appropriate relationship between religion and politics. A secular state is always secularizing. And yet, as Lemons demonstrates, the state is not the only arbiter of the relationship between religion and law: religious legal forums help to constitute the categories of private and public, religious and secular upon which secularism relies. In the end, because Muslim legal expertise and practice are central to the Indian legal system and because Muslim divorce's contested legal status marks a crisis of the secular distinction between religion and law, Muslim divorce, argues Lemons, is a key site for understanding Indian secularism.

Download or read book Nikah Halala written by Ziya Us Salam and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-18 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muslim society in India remains in a state of denial when it comes to nikah halala. The Quran allows divorce twice. After that the spouses either live together happily or divorce gracefully. Nowhere does it allow marriage with a pre-arranged date of divorce to a new man only to go back to the former husband. Nikah Halala: Sleeping with a Stranger is a probing exercise that exposes the cycle of instant triple talaq followed by a fake marriage, which too ends with another instant triple talaq that allows the woman to marry the former husband. While the holy book does not mention instant triple talaq, this tradition is unique to the Indian subcontinent that claims to bring squabbling couples together but ends up making a mockery of the faith and punishes women for the crimes of men. The first ever book to talk of the subject, Nikah Halala presents the sordid reality of mock marriages against the background of Quranic injunction on the subject and exposes the departure in practice from the teachings of the holy book that gives divorced women complete freedom to follow their path.
