Hello everyone,
I am very thankful that I got an opportunity to discuss this topic with you, I am going to discuss is concerned with Muslim community which I am and I believe triple talaq should not be banned,
So, I consider the authentic practice of triple talaq in the muslim community then there some steps and cases we have to follow.
Rights of husband on wife while going the triple talaq.
Step 1: If he is not satisfied with his wife then he can use his option as the first talaq out of triple talaq.
If we Consider the cases for it then.
Case 1: If the husband is satisfied within 3 months with his wife then out of the triple talaq first talaq is considered and they can Rejoin or catch up which means their marriage is secure, considered as husband and wife again.
Case 2: If his wife is pregnant then he has to wait till the baby is not born and baby is not fully cleaned then after he can give the first talaq and have to wait till 3 months.
Case 3:if the husband is not satisfied with 3 months and his wife can go away, if both husband and wife want to meet again then they can catch up again by remarrying again and the first talaq is counted but they are husband and wife again.
Case 4:if the husband is not satisfied after remarrying again then he can give 2nd talaq and have to wait till 3 months and have to follow the same rules again.
Case 5:if not satisfied again after give remarrying in this case he can give 3 talaq then he is out of marriage which means he can't be his wife until and unless she will marry another person if that person is not satisfied with her and following the same rules for triple talaq is then he can marry her again.
If you Consider the Rights of wife on husband while going for triple talaq.
If wife is not satisfied with his husband she can give the first talaq and then she has to wait for 1 month and after 1 month husband should give mahr to his wife, mahr is actually a mandatory payment, in the form of money or possessions paid by the groom, to the bride at the time of marriage, that legally becomes her property especially to support her in the event of his death and even husband has to give her gifts while leaving. So, after leaving the husband does not have the right to backbiting the wife and even he can't embarrass her in public what happened in between them. Then the only difference between the talaq of wife and husband is the duration of time and mahr rest I already discussed with you.
At last, I will tell the banning for triple talaq is just a public stand for vote bank.

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.

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.

Triple Talaq? What is it?
Triple Talaq is according to Muslim tradition if a husband/wife says talaq (3 times) to their respective partner then their marriage is taken as void, and after that, they are bound to divorce each other legally. This thing was done keeping in mind like, we don't have to say anything out of anger. Like there are times when a husband or wife out of their Anger say they are going to leave each other, they don't want to stay together. But the thing is they might have said that out of anger only, deep down they don't want to leave their partner after their anger gets resolved they realize their mistake. This triple Talaq concept was done keeping in mind like marriage is not a joke, couples don't have to threaten each other like they are going to leave each other. If they did then they have to face the consequences, their marriage will be taken as void and according to Islam, they can't even remarry directly. Therefore people should have to control on their tongues. They have to think twice before saying anything, because that may hamper the other partner mentally. But the thing is many people are taking advantage to it. Like intentionally one says triple Talaq to the other one In order to get rid of his/her partner easily. This is the easiest way to divorce just by saying Talaq (3 times) not giving any option to the other partner, not ever asking his/her wish. Therefore I want to conclude that this triple Talaq concept should have to be banned in India, as a result, no one can't intentionally get rid of their respective partner easily. If any couple wants to get separated then they have to follow the proper divorce procedure.
Thank you.

Hello everyone,
I am here to discuss about on burning topic "should triple talaq be banned in India or not".
I think it should be banned. People get married with high hopes of future, happy upcoming life and responsibility of each other. The bride and groom take vows of marriage in the presence of others. And in India girls have to leave their homes after marriage and they become dependent on husbands.
On just saying talaq three times, you are ruining some ones life and destroying her future on the basis of some bullshits. Someone can give talaq anytime over small fights and even on WhatsApp. There is no rule and obligations and not even a procedure. There is no say of women in it. See husbands do not get affected by this, they say talaq and get divorced after that they can marry again. Only women have to suffer, they are forced to leave the family, house and they struggle for life. And the society in return blames women and used to give hard time to them instead of supporting them. It is more like a game for men where you a play with the lives of women. You can do whatever you want as you have all the powers and even the society is with you. Now it is government responsibility to impose rules and regulation over triple talaq and ban this nonsense. It is needed to make law for the well being of women so that they can live their life more independently, not under the inhumane people. It will create some fear if law will be imposed. People will think before their actions.

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.

Hi everyone,
As I already discussed the topic, but I want to add some more words to this topic, like I said triple talaq should not be banned because if it is used properly then I believe it is the most powerful tool for both husband and wife for reconciliation. Due to lack of Muslim knowledge, we have misused the triple talak i.e. triple talaq in one go which means saying talaq talaq talaq in one go is prohibited. QURAN (book of muslin) says "O you who have believed, if there comes to you a disobedient one with information, investigate, lest you harm a people out of ignorance and become, over what you have done, regretful", which means if somebody tells you something, verify or investigate it first then follow the saying of that person but problem is common in India of Listening and watching the news without investigating and verifying from our own side. The topic should not be like "it should be banned" instead it should be 'How to triple talaq should be followed". If you compare it with divorce in court then there are no chances of coming back, the husband and wife signed the paper that is the end of a marriage but in triple talaq, there are chances of reconciliation and the rest the authentic way of practice of triple talaq I already discussed.

Hello everyone.
Now I am here to discuss the topic"should triple talaq be banned in India or not".
Triple talaq' is made for Islamic people who follow the Quran. There is the 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 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 women who got talaq. Females are not playing doll. 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 loving each other and give respect with better understanding. Talaq should be ban in India.
