India: Muslim politician says Islamic instant divorce saves “cheating” wives from murder

Jul 25, 2018 10:41 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

A political party leader in India has admitted that Triple Talaq (instant divorce by saying to your wife “I divorce you” three times) was meant to get rid of her quickly instead of killing her if she is found to be committing adultery.

Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Riyaz Ahmed on Monday said that while Shariat laws say that Talaq should be given in three stages, the instant Triple Talaq was meant to save the lives of cheating women.

Ahmed explained in a manner that presents the triple talaq as the merciful thing to do:

Triple talaq has been kept as an option for times like if, for example, you find your wife in a compromising situation with another man, what will you do? You will either kill her or give triple talaq to get rid of her. So to save a life, this was introduced.

There is actually nothing merciful about the instant talaq. India’s Supreme Court ruled last August that the practice of instant triple talaq was unconstitutional. An Indian women’s rights advocate, Shayara Bano, stated that “instant triple talaq changes the life of a woman forever and destroys her children’s future.” In 2015, Bano was recovering from an illness at her parents’ home when she received a letter from her husband that simply said “I give you talaq” three times; thus instantly ending her 15-year marriage. She has not seen her children since.

This is the brutality of the sharia against women in particular, as there is no such provision for divorcing men that easily in the sharia legal system. Also, under sharia men can have their four wives. Yet Western so-called “human rights” leaders and “feminists” become strangely defensive when such abuses are pointed out. They prefer to defend the purveyors of the sharia rather than the victims of it.

“SP leader’s shocker: Triple talaq prevents Muslim men from murdering their wives!,” DNA India News, July 23, 2018:

Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Riyaz Ahmed on Monday said that while Shariat laws say that Talaq should be given in three stages, the instant Triple Talaq was meant to save the lives of cheating women.

Speaking to ANI, Ahmed said that in case a man ever finds his wife having an extra-marital affair, he does not have to kill her and can get rid of her via triple talaq, thus sparing her life.

‘Shariat says Talaq should be given in three stages. Whereas, triple talaq has been kept as an option for times like if, for example, you find your wife in a compromising situation with another man, what will you do? You will either kill her or give triple talaq to get rid of her. So to save a life, this was introduced,’ Ahmed said.

In a shocking statement, he further stated that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) did not actually care about Muslim women and were only playing politics with the Triple Talaq issue.

‘If they actually care about the downtrodden Muslim women, then they should reserve eight per cent seats for Muslim women in the upcoming Women Reservation Bill,’ Ahmed said.

Triple talaq, or verbal divorce, is practiced by some in the Muslim community to instantly divorce their wives by uttering talaq three times…..

    And if she is 100% faithful ……….? What is the justification then? And can a faithful wife use triple Talaq to rid herself of a cheating and/or violent husband?

    Clowns like Riyaz Ahmed are moral invertebrates, devoid of a single ounce of common sense and human feeling.

      Yes–in neither of the two recent cases cited here was the woman accused of infidelity–in fact, in both cases, the Muslims remarried her after forcing her to sleep with her father-in-law.

    • gravenimage says

      Women cannot pronounce the “Triple Talaq”–a divorce for a Muslim woman is called a Khula divorce, and it has to be granted by special dispensation by an Imam. Often her being beaten or threatened with “Honor Killing” are not sufficient grounds for granting one.

      No, they are simply Muslims.

    Riyaz Ahmed thinks that MISOGYNY and CHAUVINISM are still acceptable in the 21st century.

    Muslim men are so backward they think that marching back to the 7th century is ‘progress’.

    Question for Muslims: SHARIA LAW DIDN’T WORK IN THE PAST, SO WHY DO YOU KEEP TRYING TO IMPLEMENT IT?

    Islamic countries are all DYSFUNCTIONAL and Muslims are dying to escape them for CHRISTIAN countries.

      mortimer, your marital ties are just sham because your satan god you call Holy Spirit inspired that married couples can have sex outside marriage. That is why your women,whether married or unmarried, are ready to offer sex like She-donkeys. Beasts!!

      • gravenimage says

        Jul 25, 2018 at 8:30 pm

        What crap. Note that Ibrahim itace muhammed has said that those who marry for love *should be killed*.

        He has applauded child marriage, forced marriage, marital rape, polygamy, the “Triple Talaq”, wife beating, and “Honor Killing”.

        “Marriage” in Islam is little better than sex slavery. Of course, the foul Ibrahim itace muhammed has championed this, as well–noting that those who are married can also rape their sex slaves.

        The specter of a long, loving marriage between a man and woman who respect and care for each other is entirely alien to him. *Ugh*.

        • Keys says

          Jul 25, 2018 at 9:43 pm

          Yes, gravenimage, Islam is full of incurable relationship maladies, especially “Allah’s” relationship to humanity – especially Woman humanity.

          Conversely, the joy of a true “loving marriage between a man and woman” is a Christian metaphor for relationship with God.

        • gravenimage says

          Jul 27, 2018 at 1:53 am

          Agreed, Keys.

        itace, you’re still dead and are again displaying your ignorance of something you know little about.

        The Holy Spirit would bless a marriage with LOVE and the marital bonds would strengthen as the loving couple sought the Spirit’s presence in their relationship.

        the allah god of islam (subjugation) disallows you (slave) to enjoy your wife; she can serve you on your whim, but she is not guided to please you – even when you beat her gently on her feet.

        The Holy Spirit would help you, but not as you are now, estranged from the Living God and Lord.

        i hope that your wives do not know the poisons and they all mind you

        “…that married couples can have sex outside marriage”… how does that work?

        And even if married “women are ready to offer sex like She-donkeys,” so what? Muslim men prefer he-donkeys?

    It’s sadistically funny sometimes to hear the moral “logic” of muslims. Triple Talaq isn’t some kind of considerate alternative, it’s a deadly ultimatum backed by murder. It’s the baby brat muslim men enforcing a system of male dominance underscored with death. It’s a false dichotomy that women either accept talaq or risk getting murdered, another obvious choice is that women be granted equal rights without the threat of murder. Men can get their rocks of with multiple wives and require four witnesses to rape, but women must risk death or accept an uncontested divorce for any old reason. The moral solution isn’t to create one abuse like talaq to avoid a more grievous one like death; the solution is to eliminate the misogynist hate of women that allows for these injustices in the first place. Don’t pretend you care about the welfare of women with talaq, it’s not good for women, it’s simply an offer they can’t refuse. Islam is all about abuse, against women, the infidel, Jews, anyone that does not accept islam’s male dominated love of violence and bigoted discrimination. If muslim men truly care about their women they will acknowledge these murderous deficiencies in their thinking and make the change. But let’s not hold our breath, or we will surely die waiting.

    Islam – the religion who sees the wife put destitute on the street as “the human solution”, the best alternative after all (Hey – she is not kill or boiled!) and proof of the religion’s own goodness. That says it all

    India: Muslim politician says Islamic instant divorce saves “cheating” wives from murder
    ……………………….

    The idea that all of these wives given the “Triple Talaq” by their poor-impulse control husbands are cheating is grotesque.

    Also, the idea that if Muslims couldn’t give the “Triple Talaq” that they’d have no choice by to murder there wives is just sickening.

    Islam is so appalling.

    Jul 26, 2018 at 3:05 am

    boakai Ngombu, you mean it is the satan god you call Holy Spirit who said you are free to have sex outside marriage? Remember, according to statistics reported by AP, more than 95% of married mithraist American Christians have sex outside marriage and 98% of unmarried girls have sex before marriage many even before puberty starting with their their brothers pursuant to mithraist Bible in song of song. worst, mithraist churchmen have been having anus and vaginal sex with kids under their care. Beasts!!

    • gravenimage says

      Jul 27, 2018 at 2:03 am

      Ibrahim itace muhammed has posted this claptrap before about the Bible telling Christians and Jews to engage in incest. Of course, there is no such verse.

  8. Chantal says

    Jul 26, 2018 at 7:24 am

    They are ridiculous! The muslim men are the ones cheating all the time since they pretend they have several wives but in reality they are all mistresses. They cheat every day. They created a fake concept of many wives to cheat legally but we are not fooled by their low standards.

  9. Pete says

    Jul 26, 2018 at 9:44 am

    Hmmm….I was not aware that despite all the first cousins subjugation, restriction of movement, muslimas still indulge in adultery. Probably with the father in law or bro in law. And this been going on since muhamads days.
    Actually the muslim men who indulge in adultery, rape and bestiality should be stoned to death

    Another interpretation says that triple tale is a punishment to the husband, not wife. Bottom line: Shriah is pure crap.
