SC mulls banning Talaq-e-Hasan, asks 'Should civilised society allow this'
The Supreme Court indicated on Wednesday that it may consider striking down Talaq-e-Hasan and asked, "Should a civilised society allow this?" Under Talaq-e-Hasan, a Muslim man can divorce his wife by saying 'talaq' once a month for three consecutive months. The case was filed by a journalist whose husband had allegedly divorced her through Talaq-e-Hasan.
