The Supreme Court will shortly hear a petition challenging the practice of Talaq-e-Hasan by which a Muslim man can divorce his wife by saying the word "talaq" once a month, for three months.

#SupremeCourt #TalaqEHasan
Senior Advocate Shyam Divan appears: Refers to order from 16 August, 2022.

In deference to the observation in page 2.. regarding divorce through mutual consent.

#SupremeCourt #TalaqEHasan
Sr Adv Divan: We would like to take advantage of this observation.. the husband is not impleaded here. If Your Lordships allow this.

#SupremeCourt #TalaqEHasan
Court: The petitioner is open to exploring a settlement. Husband to be impleaded. Let notice be issued ONLY to him. List on 11 October, 2022.

#SupremeCourt #TalaqEHasan
Similar petitioner appears, Counsel appears for another woman challenging talaq-e-hasan given to her.
Court: What is the nature of talaq? Also talaq-e-hasan? He has said two talaqs in one instance. It has to be three months.

Petitioner: here this is what has happened. The lady is without maintenance. Third talaq has been said today morning.
Court impleads husband in this case. Issues notice to the husband only.

#SupremeCourt
Court: At the moment we are only concerned with relief to two parties.
Petitioner Benazir in the first petition requests court to speak: We have been given divorce this way. Suddenly we get a letter from an advocate who gives us divorce on behalf of your husband.

Court: That's why we have issued notice to your husband.
Court: There is a larger issue of talaq-e-hasan. But in which case, in what way it's given.. that we'll consider.

If we keep seeing the larger issue, it'll not be of any help.

You can come on the next date.. it will be better if you take some time out and are there.
Petitioner: i am a journalist.. that's why I am here right now. I have trust in this forum.

Court: We are not ignoring the larger issue. But we will first look for a relief for you.
Court: Do you wish to stay with him?

Petitioner: Yes. Because he is trying to run away from responsibility.
Court: Okay, we will call him here. Let's see what happens.

Petitioner: Thank you.
