In ‘Nikah Halala’, Ziya Us Salam writes about how Halala was meant to keep men who have zero control at bay. But in India, it only serves to reduce women to chattel.

Actually writer made a factual error, Prostitution is legal in India, Involvement of 3rd parties like Pimp/brothal is crime, as it promotes human trafficking.
Mr Suhail Ahmad: Indian laws apply in India, not the barbaric mediaeval laws that work in backward Islamic countries such as perhaps yours. Thus stoning a person to death is not seen in India. Although, not to be undone, India’s police believe in the much more human “encounter” way of capital punishment !
No it is not a crisis among Muslim community. Divorce rate among Muslims is the lowest among communities. Not all Muslim sects practice triple talaq. Shia 40% of Muslims, Ahl-e Hadees about 15% small minorities like bhori, Aga Khani and couple of other sects do not practice triple talaq.
Not only that in most cases of talaq both or one parties do not want to get back together.
There is no nikah Halala as such. It’s simple Nikah. After marriage is dissolved there is no possibility of getting back together. Only in case where the woman married again and then was divorced that it is possible for her to marry her previous husband. However it is prohibited for men among most Sunni sects to marry with intention of divorce. However this deviation is not regulated by law.
This kind of situation is so rare that most Muslims have not even heard of it.
While journalists always get into all kind of tangents while writing articles I see that so called progressive leaning publications are hostile to Muslim point of view and refuse to provide context on sects which don’t practice triple talaq . They refuse to provide context of appropriate statistics instead indulge in exaggerating individual instances. Moreover they refuse to identify RSS and BJP backed organization and individuals often who wear burqas only when they want to give press statements. My question is are publications like yours also part of those who have ganged up against Islam and Muslims?
Islam allows women to be treated as object of lust and sex yet moslems dont want to accept it.
Half the HK is about sex, marriage , women slaves as war booty, concubines and sex after death.
How is somethingll like halala be so unislamic be a matter of faith for millions across sub continent. It must be sacrosanct else why would muslims opposes TTT bill.
Does that mean that many other claims by Muslims are also unislamic. Just that no one has explored them yet.
Maybe Islam allows converting back to original religion ans so is allowed pork eating.
Who knows what evil mullah has been feeding the gullible masses
TOTALLY UNISLAMIC. These fake moulvi’s are not even qualified enough to be called Moulvi and they doesn’t even have basic understanding of Islam and Quran. There’s no such thing as ‘Nikah Halala’ and ‘Instant triple talaq’ term mentioned in the Quran. People should educate themselves on these issues.
According to Quran and Sunnah (Islamic tradition) If a man divorces his wife then that women must wait for three monthly cycles (Approx. 3 months) and their husbands are fully entitled to take them back (as their wives) during this waiting period, if they desire reconciliation. The Quran demands time and patience in executing a divorce in the hope of making the union possible knowing that the couple is bound to have differences.It leans more toward safeguarding marriages than dissolving it abruptly.
Once divorce has taken place she becomes unlawful for him. Then she can marry any guy of her choice and that marriage should be genuine not a short-term or temporary marriage which is invalid and forbidden in Islam. Further If the second Husband dies or if she didn’t get along with him and it leads to a divorce, she can go back to the first husband on her own free will as it is permissible (halal). This is to be without any conspiracy, and certainly not be a marriage entered into cynically just for the purpose of an immediate divorce so that she can remarry the first husband. Such a marriage can only be called a malpractice or an innovation against the spirit of Islam.
Now very few handful of Muslims in India (less than 0.001%) mostly uneducated ones have misunderstood this concept and some lunatic dimwits used this opportunity to make money by doing so called “Nikah Halala” (Tahleel marriages)
In Islam Women has right to choose a Husband of her choice and also has right to reject any marriage proposal.
Women too can ask for a divorce in Islam if her Husband doesn’t provide her with basic needs like shelter, clothing, maintenance, food or if he is abusive, over-strict, or criticizes her and rebukes her for the slightest mistake or if she dislikes his physical appearance because of some deformity or because one of his faculties is missing, or if he doesn’t give her conjugal rights then she has the right to ask for a divorce known as “Khula”(female instigated divorce). Most of the Non-Muslims never heard of this before in their life.
Prophet Muhammed ( PBUH) cursed those who gets involved in “Tahleel marriage”(Nikah Halala) marriages and compared them with Borrowed billy goat.
Reported in Ibn Majaah, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: “Shall I not tell you of a borrowed billy-goat.” They said, Yes, O Messenger of Allaah. He said, “He is the one who marries a woman and divorces her so that she can go back to her first husband .May Allah curse al-muhallil (The one who marries a woman and divorces her so that she can go back to her first husband) and al-muhallal lahu (first Husband)”.
Abu Dawood (2076) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: “Allah has cursed the muhallil and the muhallal lahu.”
“.. Women too can ask for a divorce in Islam if her Husband doesn’t provide her with basic needs like shelter, clothing, maintenance, food or if he is abusive, over-strict, or criticizes her and rebukes her for the slightest mistake ..”
I am pretty sure that a learned man like you has the necessary theological proofs in the Qur’an and the Sunnah when you make that statement above. But that is not the red flag that I wish to raise.
Fact is, when most Muslim women are dependent on their husbands who are the sole breadwinners in their households, what realistic right does a woman have to ask for divorce? Would she get maintenance for herself and her offspring? These questions get brushed under the carpet by obscure, atavistic references to theology and a deliberate disregard for facts on the ground when it comes to the plight of divorced women.
Take the case of the young Christian girl who was our neighbour who occasionally babysat me when I was a child in Madras in the 70s. I will call her D in this comment. D eloped with a Muslim man and then turned up one day with her fiancé clad in a burqa, ostensibly to invite her family to her wedding. When I ran to meet her and hug her, I was literally shooed away as I was a male from outside the family – never mind the fact that I was a 12 year old boy – who she had been babysitting. I remember running back to my mom sobbing. Fast forward 15 odd years. My family had moved out of our old house and I had moved to Europe. I decided to visit my old neighbourhood and went to the local market to take some snaps. I found D there, begging with a couple of children beside her. My old neighbours told me that D had been triple-talaqqued and shunned now by both Muslims and Christians.
I will not build a case on my anecdotal evidence. So here is what the Sachchar committee Report states:
“Despite these differences within their lot, when compared to women from other
faiths in India, the majority of Muslim women are among the most disadvantaged,
least literate, most economically impoverished and politically marginalized
sections of Indian society. While debates on personal law and divorce are
pertinent and timely, and one is not for a minute running down these issues,
Muslim women need to be seen as social beings too, entitled to the same rights
that the Constitution of India grants to all its citizens. The right to education,
especially at the primary level is mandated by the Constitution, yet over six
decades after Independence less than 50 percent of Muslim women in India are
literate. Compare this with other women from other minorities: 76 percent literacy
among Christians, 64 percent among Sikhs, 62 percent among Buddhists and a
whopping 90 percent among Jain women (Sachar Report, 2006)
Ref: bit.ly/3fM7cLR
Hence, rather than defending obscure theological ideas and lamenting about how things should have been done and how people are deviating from the Qur’an and the Sunnah and so on, policy should be based on facts on the ground. That is, if Muslim community elders wish to alleviate the plight of India’s women.
I am afraid that will not happen, given the fact that these elders and ulema are almost always men and will defend male privilege tooth and nail. As is usually the case in most religions.
Wowww…. U put the reality perfectly in words… Very well done??? thanks a lot!

Ms Sadiya Saleem: Rather than squabbling and splitting hairs about arcane theological terminology, why don’t you accept the fact that this terrible state of affairs befalls many Muslim women ? Merely brushing aside the arguments saying that it is un-Islamic as you and Mr Shahid do does not solve the problem does it ?
Fact is, Muslim women in India are at the bottom of the heap when it comes to indicators such as education, economic power, health, poverty, social mobility and a host of other indicators. I will be the first to admit that the systemic discrimination in India against Muslims has to bear a large chunk of the blame. But at the same time, the Muslim community does have many an ataviostic, misogynistic practices stemming from use of religious doctrine not adapted to the demands of this century. Even a mere acknowledgement of that fact will be a good first step.
Nonsense is that even I don’t believe in that why only women’s should suffer
Ofc the reality is Harsh!
Its true!
Although you need to elaborate on the whole idea of halala! Which is not well received by almost all people.
Therefore these heinous people take advantage of the emotionally challenged person.
Thers Nothing likes halala in Islam first our clerics never acsepts triple thalaq is un Islamic our Muslims law board or our muftis not ready to form board to come to a solution for this kind of pathetic condition ther many countries do like malasiya Indonesia and gulf countries (example Islam is the only religion and its script says Marry only one if you cannot do justice to four (wich permits to Marry) equal.so it’s absolutely our Muslim leaders fault but last whatever is this type of situation in Islam very few persentage in there population compare to other religions related offence.
The Print plays its usual trick by using INDIAN instead of MUSLIM in the headline.
The title should be “How MUSLIM clerics abuse Quranic halala to sexually exploit women and get paid”.
For a moment, imagine how these fork-tongued rascals at The Print would frame the headline had a Hindu priest committed such a dastardly act.
Ours is a hidebound, traditionalist society mired not so much in physical backwardness as in mental backwardness. Only a sick society living in the past would indulge in the kind of extended Sharia debates which seem to be one of our regular pastimes. Ayaz Amir, 14/2/14 The News.
Now when the truth is out. Let’s see the reaction of Islamists. They call right wing andhbhakt make mockery of them (of course right wing are andhbhakt) but that doesn’t give the authority to minority, left, and Islamists ideology to prevail in this country. For the generations to come Indian Muslims have to fight back against these ideology.
But they can fight only when the truth is told to them and not the lies that all Islamic clerics tell them in mosques and brainwash them in name of God.
The author forgot to tell one thing that as per Islamic laws that second marriage can’t bedone with pre-planned divorce in future and remarriage with first husband.
Most Muslims believe what is written in their holy book, is to be followed in letter and spirit. They also believe their holy book was written by God, unlike other religious texts.
So it means this is just a ploy by Maul – Loveee to sleep with another persons wife and also get paid for his services !
So Maul- Lovee is charging 62 grand for a night !
He is indulging in male prostitution and making a tidy profit !!! Ineteresting business model !
Why is it interesting to you?
Mullah Fazal Mahmood: There are other mullahs who say the opposite of what you claim.
This case shows that there is an immediate need to get rid of these atavistic laws and replace them by modern laws that are the same for all communities and which also ensure that women do not get shortchanged as is often the case is in Indian Islamic family law.
Actually writer made a factual error, Prostitution is legal in India, Involvement of 3rd parties like Pimp/brothal is crime, as it promotes human trafficking.
These clerics should be charged with rape and according to islamic rules that a rapist should be stoned till death must be implemented.
