Divorce in Muslim Law – Types of Talaq and Their Applications
Divorce in Muslim law has evolved to protect both parties’ rights, with methods like Talaq-e-Ahsan, Talaq-e-Hasan, and Talaq-e-Biddat. Landmark rulings, such as Shayara Bano v. Union of India, and the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019, have reformed divorce practices, criminalizing instant triple talaq and ensuring women’s rights and gender justice in Muslim law.
