Nearly All India's Muslim Women Reject 'Triple Talaq', Survey Finds

Getting divorce just on uttering 'Talaq' three times immediately is a very bizarre and arbirtrary way of dovorce. Somebody utters Talaq in a rage and divorce is complete. He cannot even retrace his action. There is need to chabe this. It is good that Muslim women are coming against the practice. This is internal issue of Muslims and so this can be changed only at inititaive and struggle of right thinking men and women in the Muslim community itself.

Exactly Sir. the fact that Muslim women rose against this Draconian way is quite heartening will be a slap on the face of Muslim fundamentalists. It remains to be seen what's going to happen in this regard.

We can't accept anything so soon. The only way to social reform is education. Happily Muslim women are getting education. I use public transport and on the way I see how Nuslim men and women also think and behave. There are a large number of Muslims in Agra. They are changing for the better. You can see Muslim girls also using smartphones on the way.

It is not easy for "Change " to take place. Any change from the normal course will be viewed with suspicion and doubt. All the greatest changes that took place in History had to face this problem in the initial days

In this case also, a change is visible in the attitude of Muslim women. A beginning has been done. And over a period there will be a full metamorphosis in the attitude of Muslim women.

 

 

Like any other community Muslims also want to change for the better. The findings are a slap in face of not only Muslim fundamentalists but also Hindu ones who always show muslims in wrong light. Also many of us talk in a patronising manner about minorities forgetting that equally if not more among Hindus are still backward.

Change is rapidly taking place in all religions. Fundamentalist in all religions started feeling the Heat of this change.Things will not be same all the time.

Women around the world are gearing up for change, for betterment and for gender equality. They are fighting for their rights as an equal adult as that of their male counterparts irrespective of their religion and community. Why should an India women stay behind and accept all social atrocities against her in the name of religion and tradition??Feels good that they are rising above to fight for their right. 

A survey can not bring about a change. What we are talking about here is just a survey. 

Talaq is a one way tool only for the men, why would women accept it if they have a choice. But if it was both ways it would have been more acceptable i guess :P.

Its time these old age male favorable practices should be done away with. 

Actually it is not a survey. Union Law Minister has said, the Center's affidavit on the Triple Talaq issue that was heard in the Supreme Court was based on the principles of assuring gender justice, gender equality and dignity. Triple Talaq is a Draconian Law and it should be scrapped.

The link to the news item you posted is clearly referencing a survey which 4k+ Muslim women hv taken up. And yes there are few efforts being taken up to remove triple talaq... But all are mere proposals now...
