Triple talaq: Will issue advisory against practice, says Muslim law board to Supreme Court

The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) on Monday, filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court in the Triple Talaq matter.

In its affidavit, AIMPLB said that it would issue an advisory requesting individuals who perform the nikah (marriage) to follow the following steps.

Firstly, the individual performing the nikah will advise the bridegroom that in case of differences leading to a divorce, the bridegroom shall not say talaq thrice in one sitting. "This is an undesirable practice in Shariat," said the law board in its affidavit.

Secondly, the individual performing the nikah will advise both the bride and the bridegroom to incorporate a condition in 'nikahnama' to exclude resorting to pronuncement of three divorces by her husband in one sitting.

A five-judge Constitution bench headed by Chief Justice JS Khehar has reserved its verdict on a clutch of pleas challenging the constitutional validity of triple talaq among Muslims.
