#TripleTalaq: Television industry REACTS to Supreme Court's decision!

I feel it's a great move and one that was much needed! Marriage is an institution which requires a lot of effort and divorce cannot and should not be as convenient as just saying a word. Also, what made it all the more unfair was that it was one-sided and so a man could just divorce a woman at a whim. I am glad that the Supreme Court has taken such a decision and I hope that it brings about a positive change by giving equality to both genders and also make decisions like divorce better thought out.

I rejoice for women of the community. They have finally got an equal right in the marriage which constitutes of two people but owing to Triple Talaq, it always remained a one-sided affair. Women had to constantly remain in fear that they have to behave in accordance with their husband and in-laws, or else they'd be subjected to those three terrorizing words. A new era for these women has started from here on. I applaud those who stood for their rights and salute the law makers for liberating them.

I think it was high time that the Indian Constitution declared the law as many were going as far as using WhatsApp to inform their wives of their divorce. It had come to a meaningless standstill for women after that.

I applaud the Supreme Court for this move! Just the way marriage isn't about a few words, a divorce should also not be. Marriage is about two people coming together and just by saying a few words, the men had an upper hand and would decide the verdict of a marriage. Now the verdict lies in the hands of both partners! Kudos to the Indian Supreme Court for this move!

Triple Talaq is in Islam and cannot be amended. But the issue is not the law instead how it has been practised. A lot of cases have come out where the way has been practised is entirely wrong. No one, according to any Islamic law, is allowed to give talaq just in one go just by saying talaq thrice. According to the Islamic law, there is a proper procedure that is to be followed no matter what and it's a procedure of 6-9 months where you make the couple meet and sit and get them to rethink about the decision too. Once you are through with that span of time and if both the individuals are still standing their grounds to get separated, a talaq is viable. Until the end of this entire process, there's an option for the respective husband and wife to withdraw the entire process and come back as a couple as well. Rather than creating a frenzy or making a hue and cry for Islamic laws or condemning them, the Government needs to educate and help the ignorant to provide more awareness towards the right practice of talaq in exactly the same manner that the Government is spreading awareness about dowry practices in our country.

It's a very apt decision taken by the court. Both men and women deserve equal rights, be it any religion. So I am glad that women of Muslim religion also have equal rights now. The pain a woman goes through during the separation with her husband cannot be minimised but atleast this might give sometime to her to recover or rethink about life because triple talak was like an instant noodle, just say it and get over with the relationship.

I think it's smart and a perfect verdict for now. It's just very appalling how my community lacks educated and sensible leadership. I know the apprehensions about a lot of elder Muslims that I have spoken with, they would claim that once anyone else who starts meddling with Muslims personal law board or Muslim laws it would be wind fall. I don't know how far these are true but I think anything unfair, anything pertaining to gender inequality should be abolished. Why should there be even a second thought about? For anyone having second thoughts, I would ask them to imagine something same happening to their sister or any other family person. While I sit here and complain about lack of educated leadership in India in my community, I am hardly doing anything about it so I don't think I have a right to complain but I guess eventually we have to come together and set some wrongs to right.
