New Delhi: The Supreme Court will on Thursday start hearing a set of petitions challenging the practice of triple talaq, 'nikah halala' and polygamy under the Muslim personal law.
When the court had asked the parties to reply with questions which the court should ponder upon during the hearings, the Centre had submitted four key questions:
1. Whether the impugned practices of talaq-e-biddat, nikaah halala and polygamy are protected under Article 25(1) of the Constitution of India?
2. Whether Article 25(1) is subject to part III of the Constitution and in particular Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution of India?
3. Whether personal law is a law under Article 13 of the Constitution?
The other group, Jamiat Ulema-i-Hind, has also started a campaign just a few days before the SC hearing trying to disseminate information among fellow Muslims to teach them “the correct procedure of divorce in Islam".
