India divorce: How ‘triple talaq’ destroys lives

A practice in India that allows Muslim men to divorce their wives in an instant is facing fierce opposition.

“Triple talaq” – divorcing by saying the word talaq three times – is legal for Muslims in India but controversial. It is banned across much of the Islamic world.

India’s Supreme Court is deciding whether triple talaq is unconstitutional, a move that could help thousands of women.
