TITLE: TRIPLE TALAQ: NO MORE A CRUELTY FOR MUSLIM WOMEN

ABSTRACT: Triple Talaq, also known as instant divorce, is a controversial practice prevalent within certain Muslim communities. It allows a husband to dissolve a marriage by uttering the word “talaq” (divorce) three times, often in a single sitting, without any legal proceedings or involvement of the courts. However, this practice has faced significant scrutiny due to its detrimental effects on Muslim women. This article delves into the historical context, legal status, and arguments against Triple Talaq as a form of cruelty towards Muslim women. Furthermore, it explores the psychological and emotional consequences on women, legal reforms, success stories, the role of activism, and the challenges faced in protecting the rights of Muslim women.

KEYWORDS: Prophet, Triple talaq, Talaq-e-Biddat, psychological distress, Talaq –e-bain etc.
