After declaring triple Talaq unconstitutional and unlawful by the Supreme Court in India, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board has decided that during the time of Nikah, this consent between the groom and the bridegroom will happen that 'Talaq-e-Biddat' will not be used to end the relationship at any cost.

It may be noted that on August 22, the Supreme Court of India had pronounced triple talaq 'Talaq-e-Biddat' illegal and unconstitutional at one time.

The meeting of the National Executive of the AIMPLB was held in Bhopal yesterday in which the AIMPLB clarified that they respect the court's decision and will launch a massive campaign against triple talaq and spread awareness about Shari'a.

The AIMPLB has also decided to set up a committee in this context. There were other decisions made in this meeting of the AIMPLB which said that the matter of saying 'no' to triple talaq at one time at the time of marriage is dominant.

A top office-bearer of the AIMPLB told 'Bhasha' today, "It would be better if the marriage of the boy and the girl in the family at the time of the marriage is to be agreed that if a situation arises to end the relationship then 'Talaq-e-Biddat' will not be used for it.

This will also be included in the awareness campaign. The Supreme Court has termed this method of divorce as illegal, in which such divorce is no longer valid. It would be better that people do not implement this divorce. It will also be helped by the Kajis and religious leaders."

In the 'Hanafi cult' of Sunni Muslims, there is a tradition of talaq-e-biddat. From the beginning of the AIMPLB it has been said that talaq-e-biddat is not a better way of divorce. They appealed to people not to follow this method of divorce many times.

The AIMPLB says that after the court's decision, it is necessary to spread awareness amongst the people and therefore a comprehensive campaign will be started.

The AIMPLB member Kamal Farooqi said, "The preparations for this campaign will start in the next few days. In this context prescriptions and other things are being done."

Asked what would be the AIMPLB's position in the case of law making the government, Farooqi said, "Nothing can be said about this right now. A decision will be taken when such a situation comes."
