Barelvi sect will not only formulate a curriculum but it will also issue a helpline number for those who want to understand correct ways of talaq.
A week after the landmark Supreme Court judgment banning instant talaq, a prominent Sunni sect has decided to teach young Muslims about correct Islamic process of giving divorce.
In a step that can be seen as a major reform, the Barelvi sect of Islam has decided to include Triple Talaq (talaq-e-sunnat) in its curriculum.
It should be noted that the top court had banned the instant talaq or talaq-e-biddat.
Mufti Kafeel Hashmi, head of Darul Ifta Manjare-e-Islam of Bareilly's Dargah-e-Ala Hazrat said the Holy Quran and Hadis have laid down certain processes for pronouncing triple talaq but, unfortunately, in the absence of proper knowledge it was being grossly misused in the form of instant talaq or talaq-e-biddat.
“To remove these doubts prevailing in the minds of Muslim students, Bareilvi sect has decided to include talaq in the curriculum of madrassas run by it all over the country,” the Mufti said.
Mufti Hashmi is of the view that if students are taught at madrassa level about the mandatory provisions laid down in Islam about talaq then no controversy would ever surface as Muslims will strictly follow the guidelines given in Islam.
The religious head of the Barelvi sect said he was drafting the new curriculum on Triple Talaq as per mandatory provisions given in the Holy Quran and Hadis.
The Mufti said Dargah-e-Ala Hazrat will soon issue a circular to all madrassas run by the sect.
The highest body of the Barelvi sect in the country will also release a helpline number for those who wants to seek advice on the correct process of talaq.
All madrassas will also be directed to discuss the issue with parents during parent-teacher meetings and educate them about the talaq-e-biddat, the correct Islamic process of giving talaq in cases where it was difficult for husband to live further with wife due to continued strained marital relations.
On Supreme Court verdict, Mufti said that there was no need for any court to interfere in “our religious laws” but since Triple Talaq was not being followed correctly by few Muslims, the Supreme Court had to intervene and put a ban on it.
“We have to keep our house in order first to thwart any attempt from any corner to interfere in our religious matters,” he pointed.
