India: Muslim rapes 10-year-old girl who is forced to marry him, then he divorces her

Aug 25, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Child marriage is sanctioned in Islam by Muhammad’s example. The rape doesn’t matter; any guilt the rapist thereby incurs is expiated by the marriage itself. And divorce of prepubescent girls is provided for in the Qur’an: “And those who no longer expect menstruation among your women – if you doubt, then their period is three […]

India: Muslim husband divorces wife three times, she is raped by another man so husband can remarry her

Dec 14, 2019 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Nikah halala is one of the most bizarre aspects of Islamic law. It is a temporary marriage that allows a woman to return to her previous husband after a divorce. If her husband says “I divorce you” to her three times, she can’t return to him unless and until she marries another man, consummates the […]

India: Parliament Criminalizes Triple-Talaq Divorce

Aug 12, 2019 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

“Triple Talaq” allows a Muslim husband to divorce his wife by repeating the word “Talaq” (divorce) three times in any form, including email or text message. In India, that will no longer be allowed. Although the Indian Supreme Court declared triple-talaq divorces unconstitutional in 2017, that ruling apparently required legislation in the Indian Parliament to […]

India: Family forces woman to sleep with father-in-law to fulfill Islamic law

Feb 8, 2019 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

A Muslim woman from the Bareilly district in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh was forced to sleep with her father-in-law for nikah halala, after her husband gave her instant triple talaq (“I divorce you, I divorce you, I divorce you” said thrice, and the wife is out in the cold). The Bareilly woman, as if not […]

India: Muslim clerics pressure Indian government to allow anti-woman Sharia practice of divorce

Oct 19, 2018 2:01 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

The Indian government has criminalized the Sharia practice of Triple Talaq. The Triple Talaq is the process by which a Muslim man divorces his wife simply by reciting thrice: “I divorce you, I divorce you, I divorce you.” The criminalization of the Triple Talaq is being met with stiff resistance from Islamic authorities…. Maulana Mahmood […]

India: Muslim husband gives wife instant divorce for turning up the music too loud, then she is gang-raped

Sep 22, 2018 1:36 pm By Robert Spencer

“According to reports, the woman has filed a complaint with the Moradabad police alleging that she was asked to perform halala, a practice in which a woman divorcee marries someone else, consummates the marriage and then gets a divorce. This makes her lawful to the former husband.” That idea, as bizarre as it is, is […]

India bans “triple talaq,” Islamic instant divorce

Sep 19, 2018 4:23 pm By Robert Spencer

The idea is that if a man says “talaq,” you are divorced, to his wife, then she is divorced. But he can tell her to come back after he says it once, and do this again after he says it a second time. But if he says it three times, then she has to marry […]

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 […]

India: Muslim forced to marry her rapist, who then divorces her by instant triple talaq

Jan 30, 2018 8:49 am By Robert Spencer

Women’s rights in Islam: the village Muslim leaders forced the rape victim to marry her rapist. Then he divorced her by saying “talaq” — you are divorced — three times, leaving her with nothing. Where are the feminists? Too busy marching against Trump to notice this sort of thing. “Woman forced to marry her rapist […]

No more triple talaq: India court bans Islamic instant divorce

Aug 22, 2017 9:25 am By Robert Spencer

“Three of the five Supreme Court judges called the controversial practice ‘un-Islamic, arbitrary and unconstitutional’. One of the judges, Justice Kurien Joseph, said the practice was not an essential part of Islam and enjoyed no protection.” Presumably if the court had determined that the practice was Islamic, it would not have outlawed it. The Qur’an […]
