coffee_rules Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 Nest Amendment.... What about SMS/Twitter/FB/E-mail/... One thing I liked about all is that she becomes 'haraam' to him and she can marry anybody else after three months. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Talaq-uttered-by-Muslim-man-on-cellphone-valid-Deoband/articleshow/6930276.cms Talaq uttered by Muslim man on cellphone valid: Deoband PTI, Nov 15, 2010, 05.02pm IST DEOBAND: Talaq uttered thrice by a Muslim man on a mobile phone will be considered valid even if his wife is unable to hear it all the three times due to network and other problems, a fresh fatwa has ruled. The fatwa was given by Darul-Ifta, the fatwa department of leading Sunni Islamic seminary Dar-ul-Uloom Deoband, in reply to a query by a man. The man in his query had asked that in case no witness was present when he utters talaq thrice to his wife over phone whether it would be considered valid or not. "I angrily said talaq three times to my wife on cell phone but she claimed that she didn't hear it even once and nobody was around both of us. Please tell me whether talaq has taken place," he asked. In its reply, Dar-ul-Ifta said, "If you have given three talaqs to your wife, all the three took place and she became haram (forbidden) for you." The fatwa said the woman will be free to marry anywhere she likes after her iddat (three month period after divorce) is over. "It is not necessary for talaq to take place that the wife hears it or the witnesses are present," it ruled. In October, the seminary had ruled that saying talaq three times even on a humourous note is valid as per the Sharia (Islamic Law) and the marriage stands nullified. A youth in his query had stated that while chatting with his wife over net he had jokingly punched talaq thrice. Claiming to have less knowledge about Islam, the youth said he didn't know how talaq is executed. The youth had stated that he was happily living with his wife and wanted to live with her in future as well. Darul-Ifta in its reply had said once talaq is put out three times it amounts to divorce and her wife was "haraam" for him. :omfg: Read more: Talaq uttered by Muslim man on cellphone valid: Deoband - The Times of India http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Talaq-uttered-by-Muslim-man-on-cellphone-valid-Deoband/articleshow/6930276.cms#ixzz15MpRbIiz
beetle Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 Deoband is full of old f*rts who have turned their religion into a comedy show..
Ram Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Seriously, how more stupider can this get? Divorce over the phone? Supposedly its valid even if there's no witness or the wife didnt even hear it. And worse, even if you say it 'jokingly', its valid? Have these people completely suspended their common sense? How could they possibly come up with such ludicrous rulings and then think to themselves 'Well, that makes a lot sense..'.
coffee_rules Posted November 17, 2010 Author Posted November 17, 2010 BR Chopra, when he made the movie 'Nikaah', wanted to name the movie 'Talaq'. He had to change the name because it was feared that people would get divorced without their knowledge or get misused on this pretext.
asterix Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 "It is not necessary for talaq to take place that the wife hears it or the witnesses are present," it ruled. Very convenient..Then why even say it? Just claim that you've given Talaq..
Gunner_Mania Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 Very convenient..Then why even say it? Just claim that you've given Talaq.. precisely what I was thinking. Just say that you said three times while you were somewhwre else and tell her that it doesnt matter she heard it or not. :hysterical:
