Muslim body to challenge Triple Talaq Act in SC

Hyderabad: Hitting out at the BJP-led NDA government at the Centre over the passage of triple talaq bill in the Parliament, a city-based Muslim organization said that it would move the Supreme Court against the law.

The Seerat-un Nabi Academy alleged that the central government has sought to dilute the ‘Muslim Sharia’ (Islamic law). “…A lot of things need to be done for Muslim welfare. But, the BJP government has chosen only to dilute Muslim sharia.

That’s the reason, the BJP passed the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill in Lok Sabha and then in Rajya Sabha during this monsoon session,” said in a release.

“Therefore, Seerat-un Nabi Academy is going to file a case against Union Government’s Triple Talaq Act in Supreme Court,” it said.
