Talaq is among Muslims only. Hindus and Christians get divorce in court and not in temple/ Church before priest. Among Muslims, marriage is just a contract. A divorced woman gets Mehr (contract money payable on divorce) and a few months' compensation. Talaq (divorce) is not a stigma. In fact, it is no use clinging to a man who does not want to continue relation. In fact, divorce is better option than to continue relation with unwilling person.
The real problem is that women are dependent on men for financial support. This is irrespective of religion. The only sensible way is to make women self sufficient and self dependent. If this happens, divorce is no issue. One problem with Hindus and Muslims alike is that marriage is considered more necessary than employment. Many marry their sons who are unemployed. When the son ias unable to support wife/ children, he will, try to get rid of the problem by way of Talaq.

Preset day Muslim are well educated. Of late these educated Muslim women too are rebelling against Triple Talaq. What is essential now is, all these educated Muslim women should unite against the Draconian law.
Anyhow , Supreme Court is currently hearing a case on the Constitutional validity of Triple Talaq

Here the issue is whether it is fair to the woman ESP since talaq is one sided used only by a man. While listening to a studio discussion many Muslim women activists were saying that as per law , women too have the right to divorce men but the mullahs and the Islamic law board never gives any Credence to it...So, for the women to get equal rights it is only fair that this barbaric practice is scrapped. One can see that support against triple talaq is increasing steadily among Muslim women of all classes .
Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back, it simply means that you are two steps ahead !!!
Triple Talaq issue is kept alive by Muslim Fundamentalists. However saying three times Talaq will not be effective without the consent of the woman

Many Muslim men have misused the triple talaq system. Once I read about a case where a Muslim man had divorced his wife by simply saying talaq three times over the phone. Just like that. Its simply unfair to the women.
Exactly. Triple Talaq system is mere nonsense., It is Un-Quarinic and goes against the spirit of Constitution.and inhuman
It is time to to abolish " Triple Talaq"
The major problem with India is it's leaders who would rather encourage an outdated practice in the name of secularism thereby breeding Communal atmosphere within the country. There are a number of Muslim countries including Pakistan and Bangladesh that have banned Triple talaq which means we are still do backward thanks to our previous regime..

Muslims in India have a feeling that their identity will be destroyed by many of their practices being curbed or changed. There is a time for reforms. Today there is a growing demand within the Muslim community for reforms and thus the time is right to do so. There is no point in making a law which will be flouted like the anti dowry act.

True Jabeen. I have read of triple talaq being issued over email as well as the latest Whatsapp too. Imagine the plight of a woman who is suddenly hit by the shock of reading talaq three times by her husband, out of the blue, giving no reason or no kind of discussion before hand. Most of the women would be leading their lives in literal terror for fear of getting hit by the word 'talaq' It is high time this practice is curbed and a common uniform civil code is issued and everyone should be made to follow that!

Triple Talaq is a draconian and outdated Muslim law.
While many Muslim Countries are banning Triple Talaq system, in India, the Muslim fundamentalists are keeping the issue alive.At a time when women are shooting ahead in their respective professions, Muslim women are still stuck on the issue of triple Talaq
Many Muslim women are coming out, now and opposing Triple Talaq.In this scenario. PM Modi and UP CM Yogi Adityanath stressed on Uniform Civil Code
