Hyderabad Woman Given Triple Talaq On Phone, Seeks Sushma Swaraj’s Help

Triple Talaq is one of the hot topics that is being talked in the country now. While a national-level debate is going on over the issue, a woman from Hyderabad has claimed that she was divorced by her husband living in Oman over a phone call ‘without following the due procedures’.

Triple Talaq

She has requested Minister of External Affairs (MEA) Sushma Swaraj and the Telangana government to take cognizance into the matter. The woman, Ghousia Begum from Pahadishareef has now approached the Union External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj seeking her help in getting compensation from her husband.

Begum informed that she married Said Zahran Hamad Al Rajhi on August 11, 2008.

“My husband called me over the phone on August 15, 2017, and pronounced ‘Talaq’ without any prior notice or due procedure as per Islamic laws,’’ 31-year-old Ghousia Begum from Pahadishareef told. “I request MEA Sushma Swaraj and the Telangana government to avail justice in my matter and inquire with him,” she added.

The email to Swaraj was sent on Monday with the help of her neighbor, she said.

Having lost her father recently, Begum has no one to look after her and her mother. Also, she has not been given a proper Talaq certificate either. Hence she has appealed to the Indian Embassy in Muscat, Oman, to inquire by summoning the Omani Sheikh to the Indian Embassy and settle her issue.

After the Supreme Court declared the practice of instant divorce ‘void, illegal and unconstitutional’, the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led Cabinet on December 15 approved the bill that makes instant triple talaq illegal.

Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad will now introduce the bill in the Lok Sabha.
