Should Triple Talaq be Banned in India or Not?

Triple talaq.

What comes to our minds when we think of this?

It's a Muslim law, that supresses the women.

It's a law where man treats the wife as a commodity? And leave her whenever she wants, just by saying that word 3 times?

No, it's not that,

If you read Quran, you will know what it means.

It's a beautiful concept which gives right to both "husband and wife" to warn the partner, if they have some issues, they should resolve it.

They should talk about it, and at the same time warn the partner that, I might have to end this relationship if you do not treat me well. It's the right of both husband and wife.

Once you can say talaq.

The next time it is repeated you say talaq Talaq.

And if the partner is repeating it again, it means they really don't want to be with you as they are not showing any signs of change and hence you say "talaq talaq talaq".

Which is considered to be the divorce, accepted by both partners.

I think it's fair.

But for Indian men, no law is straight.

They want to twist and turn it for their own advantage. And so, just like any other law, they have made this a law to fulfill men's wishes. Which is totally against the triple talaq law.

So, I wouldn't blame the law. The law is beautiful at its purest form.

But it should be banned in India as the typical Indian men will not stop using it for their own benefit.

So, for safeguarding our women, it needs to go.

Thank you.

Hi, friends.

I am here to discuss on "should triple talaq be banned in India or not".

Triple talaq means, if one of the partners wants to separate from his life partner then he would say" talaq talaq talaq". He will be separated from his life partner without the second opinion of his wife.

I don't understand one thing that when he wants to get married to a woman then he eagerly wait for a woman to say"qubool hai qubool hai qubool hai" three times. When comes to the matter of separation he doesn't listen to a woman what she feels about his decision. Why this partiality between men and women. I strictly believe that men should realise feelings of a woman that how she would feel when she is abandoned by her own life partner who promised her that he will make her happy ever after marriage, and he will be her side when the whole world is against to her. And now he is leaving her all alone to enjoy his life.

Did she come to this guy for staying alone leaving her parents, friends, childhood behind?

Definitely No, Women have sacrificed everything for their happy life. To these women, the government has to do something which protects them.

I think that something should be "women must have equal right of agreement as men.

When they get separate". As they get the equal opportunity of the agreement while they perform marriage rituals.

Thank you.

I have recently seen a good move to change backward rules like triple talaq. Like that there are a lot of rules in Islam that do not allow freedom for Muslim women and are misused by Muslim men. Things are more equal for women in Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, etc.

According to me, marriage is a kind of sacred bond between two people. It can't be broken easily. If a person says "talaq" three times, he is just making fun of marriage. He promised to keep his wife happy throughout their life and now he is deviating from that. He is not only hurting himself but also his wife. Triple talaq should be banned in India which is a culturally diverse country. If a case of divorce arises, court is there to justify the issue and give a solution based on some proofs.

The system of Triple Talak has introduced 1400 years ago. The system states that,

If after the marriage the husband is not satisfied with the wife then he can give her Talaq (1 of 3) which may be an orl, written, or through any social media site without stating any reasons. However, if the wife is pregnant then Talaq comes to force after the child is born.

If after the Talaq, they reconcile and decide to remarry they can do so. If after the marriage the husband again feels dissatisfied he shall continue the process till the 3 Talaq has taken place.

However, after giving 3 Talaq, they cannot remarry until the wife marries another man and receives 3 Talaq's from him.

Here, the custody of the child remains with the husband.

Even the wife is allowed to give Talaq to his husband and she receives some compensation from his husband.

It is said that triple talaq is better than divorce as it gives a chance to them to re-marry all over again.

But, what I feel is that in India this practice has been wrongly used. People are misusing it for their selfishness needs. First, marry a girl and when you are bored say triple talaq at a go and the marriage is over. Just like a game, they play with the lives of the women. It gives full liberty to the men to leave their wives without giving any reason. They also get a right to keep their children. This system gives no light to equality. It shall be banned and has been banned in countries like Bangladesh and Pakistan.

According to me, Divorce is a better option, there both the parties need to state their reasons, stay for some time together to check whether there is any chances of reconciliation and then end the marriage by giving some compensation to the wife. They can remarry again if they want to.

So, according to me, Triple talaq shall be banned in India.

Hello everyone,

I believe in a democratic country like India or anywhere in the world, Triple Talaq should be banned. Firstly, one must understand the true meaning of marriage. It is not only bonding of two-person but also the people related to them. And it is not a child's game to simply divorce a woman by saying ''Talaq'', three times. I personally believe that government must pass the bill to null and void the Triple Talaq Rule and every citizen irrespective of any religion, race, sex or caste must support the government because our one support can save a woman's life from getting ruined.

India is a secular nation. People have the right to follow their believes and practices. But that does not imply it as an ascendancy towards the security of any individual.

Religious beliefs are not consistent in the changing era. Hindu religion once had a custom called sati where women had to jump into the flames of their husband's corpse. We cannot think about the existence of that system now. This is exactly the same in the case of triple talaq. How can a woman be ditched off by chanting some stupidity for the sake of a man? What about the security she deserves? In the name of religion thousands of women are agonizing with shattered lives.

Banning triple talaq is not an uproar against any religious communities or their believes. It is simply an act to extinguish some of the blind stuffs we human beings have created against humanity.

Thanks to all people who take part in this GD topic. Also, you all are put your opinion on their own thinking.

'triple talaq' is made for Islamic people who follow the Quran. There is description given in Quran which is originated in Saudi Arabia. When love is no more between the couples and they wanted to spend life individually then they can say triple talaq and leave.

According to the Quran, marriage is intended to be unbounded in time. Etc.

These laws are acceptable in Saudi Arabia at that time but this time in India our society doesn't give respect to women who got talaq. People disrespect and pass comment on that women. Our culture is different from the Saudi Arabia. People should understand the situation of women after talaq. Men don't have any problem instead of, people support them and get them married again. But in our country, no one people want to marry the women who got talaq. So in my opinion in Islam triple talaq is for only Arabians not for Indian people. We have a better culture than Saudi. People should understand the importance of marriage life it all about the loving each other and give respect with better understanding. Talaq should be ban in India.

Hi Friends,

Firstly, we should understand the concept of Triple talaq. Talaq is an Arabic word for divorce. Triple talaq is a form of divorce that was practised in Islam, whereby a Muslim man could legally divorce his wife by pronouncing talaq three times. The pronouncement could be oral or written, or, in recent times, delivered by electronic means such as telephone, SMS, email or social media.

Triple Talaq, also known as Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill, 2019, was passed by the Indian Parliament as a law on July 30, 2019, to make instant Triple Talaq a criminal offence.

The Rajya Sabha passed the Bill, with 99 votes in its favour and 84 against it. The Triple Talaq law makes the instant triple talaq a criminal offence and provides for a jail term of three years for a Muslim man who commits the crime.

Only 1, 039 incidents of triple talaq were reported in the country in last one year) since the law was enacted in August 2019), whereas 3, 82, 964 cases or instant divorce were reported from 1985 to 2019, which averages out to be 11, 264 cases per year.

India became the 23rd country to ban Triple talaq. The First country is Egypt and it banned triple talaq in 1929.

Also, there are much news came up where Muslim man gave talaq to their wife on their recent marriage on messenger, WhatsApp and other digital forms. They've misused this Triple talaq and women were disheartened and helpless with no moral and financial support form the groom's families. Also, they don't get enough money for their future by their husband.

Triple talaq is banned in India and in my opinion, it was a good decision taken by the government in the support of Muslim Women.

Thanks.

Hello friend,

I think that it should be banned in India because this is the decision which is only taken by the one partner that is a man without knowing the other opinion before separating one another. But when it comes to marriage then the decision is taken by both sides. So this should be banned in India.
