Malcolm Merlyn Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Triple Talaq is history.Next is polygamy.
Stuge Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Court has asked govt to pass a legislation regarding the same in next 6 months .
ravishingravi Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Wonder what doubts those two judges had on this matter.

Malcolm Merlyn Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 It will be difficult to target polygamy. On what basis polygamy can be abolished? I doubt there is any solid ground for doing so.Violates right to equality and right to life (with dignity) of women.If its ok then why abolish it for hindus?
Malcolm Merlyn Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Court has asked govt to pass a legislation regarding the same in next 6 months .No.Thats the minority judgement.The majority judgement has struck down triple talaq.

Would woman like that ? Sharing husband ? What about the property ? How is it divided ? The husband can give more to younger wife children just because she is cute.

Women should abandon Islam if it's so discriminating against them instead of advocating for a watered down version of Islam.
Stuge Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Farah Faiz, Zakia Suman, Noorjehan Niaz and the All India Muslim Women Personal Law Board (AIMWPLB) either described the verdict as a "moment of big victory," "big relief" or as "half the battle won." "The court has given a direction to the government to frame a law. We have won half the battle. We will be victorious in the true sense only once the law is framed so as to make this practice punishable. There is no remedy for women against the practice till a law is framed," Faiz, also the President of Rashtrawadi Muslim Mahila Sangh, said. \ @Malcolm Merlyn http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/feel-victorious-and-protected-by-sc-verdict-muslim-women/articleshow/60175361.cms

You call India a democracy and then ensure that part of its population live under different law simply in name of religious freedom.Its failure on part of Law of land. My gut feeling is, Not just women, Majority of Muslim men would be happy too. Its just the so called experts/gate keepers of Muslim religion, who dont want to change. I hope Government says no consultation or law is needed on the issue. Existing laws are enough and should apply to everone in terms of divorce Edited August 22, 2017 by mishra
mishra Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) 1 hour ago, Trichromatic said: How is it unfair to them? Because Polyandry is not allowed? One right for one sex and another for another one? Also, You need to divorce before you marry becaause if you marry again, despite what the first wife says in terms of consent or mutual agreement, It is considered that she is under duress.

Also, You need to divorce before you marry becaause if you marry again, despite what the first wife says, It is considered that she is under duress. What's the reason for banning polyandry and polygamy both? Socially it's not seen as good practice, but is it bad enough to be a criminal activity?

Socially it's not seen as good practice, but is it bad enough to be a criminal activity? If women/men complain extramarital affair as ground of divorce then if polygamy is practiced then assumption is that there is resentment, duress, coercion, force involved. After all, humans are not just monkeys that the stronger monkey can keep shagging any female monkey. Polyandry is not allowed in religion which allows polygamy. Inherent contradiction Edited August 22, 2017 by mishra

All western countries don't allow polygamy actually any civilized country doesn't allow. Why India should ?
