Talak08

New Delhi:The All India Muslim Personal Law Board, AIMPLB has told the Supreme Court that it will issue an advisory to Qazis to tell bridegrooms that they will not resort to triple talaq to annul their marriage.
The affidavit filed by the AIMPLB in the Apex Court today said that it has decided to issue an advisory through its website, publications and social media platforms to Qazis regarding triple talaq in the Nikahnama. It said that at the time of execution of Nikahnama, Qazis will tell bridegroom that they would not resort to three divorces in one sitting in case of differences as it was an undesirable practice in Shariat.

The AIMPLB said, a dispute between husband and wife should be settled through mutual interaction and a code of conduct on this has been released by it, keeping in mind the tenets of the Shariat.
It said that in order to discourage triple talaq as a form of divorce, it has decided to socially boycott those Muslims who resort to saying talaq in one go and reduce such divorce incidents.
The affidavit will be perused by a five-judge Constitution bench headed by Chief Justice J S Khehar which has reserved its verdict on the issue of triple talaq last week.
