Mutane da yawa ba sa fahimtar batun talaq uku a lokaci guda. A fili yake cewa mijin da ya furta talaq uku a jere ga matarsa ya aikata abin wauta kuma abin ƙi. Kuma gaskiyar cewa saki yana da inganci kuma yana ƙarewa bisa dukkan madhhabai yana nufin cewa mijin ne ake hukunta shi, ba matar ba! Mijin yana rasa sadakinsa da matarsa. Ya kamata matar ta ji sa'a da ta fita daga auren mutumin da yake sakaci da rashin hankali har ya rasa iko ya furta talaq sau uku kamar yaro mai ɗabi'ar tsoratarwa.

Many people don’t understand the issue of triple talaq. Obviously, a husband who issues three talaqs altogether against his wife has committed a stupid and offensive act. And the fact that the divorce is binding and final according to all the madhahib means the husband is the one getting punished, not the wife! The husband loses his mahr and his wife. The wife should feel fortunate to get out of a marriage to a man who is so careless and unhinged that he loses control and utters talaq three times like a petulant child.

Ta yaya hakan ke taimakon mata musulmai lokacin da sabuwar dokar Indiya, wadda jam'iyyar siyasa ta BJP ta Hindu ta 'yan kabilanci masu aikata laifi suka zartar, ta haramta talaq sau uku?

So how is it helping Muslim women when the new Indian law, passed by the racist criminal thugs of the Indian Hindu BJP politcal party, bans triple talaq?

Haramta talaq sau uku yana nufin mijin ba zai hukuntu saboda halayyarsa ta rashin hankali ba, kuma matar za ta ci gaba da zama tare da irin wannan mutum. Idan kuma tana son fita daga aure ta hanyar khul‘, sai ta bar sadakinta. Don haka lamari ne da ke sa ta cikin hasara a kowane hali.

Banning triple talaq means that the husband doesn’t get punished for his reckless behavior and the wife has to continue living with such a person. And if she wants to get out of the marriage through khul`, she has to give up her mahr. So it is a lose-lose situation for her.

Masu fafutukar mata Musulmai waɗanda ke murna da wannan sabuwar doka ba su san abin da suke magana a kai ba (kamar yadda aka saba).

Muslim feminists celebrating this new law simply don’t know what they’re talking about (as per usual).

Maimakon mayar da hankali kan hana talaƙi sau uku, ya kamata a mayar da hankali kan munanan al'adu game da saki waɗanda ba su cikin Musulunci. Me yasa za a ɗauki mace a matsayin wadda ba a so ba kawai saboda ita mai saki ce? Me yasa iyalinta ko al'umma za su guje ta ko su dinga kallonta da mummunan ido? Wannan ba daidai ba ne. Saki yana faruwa. Abu ne mai ba da haushi, amma haka rayuwa take, kuma shi ya sa Allah ya halatta shi bisa hikimarSa. Shin mutane suna ganin sun fi Allah sani?

Rather than focusing on banning triple talaq, the focus should be on bad cultural attitudes toward divorce that are not a part of Islam. Why should a woman be seen as a persona non grata simply because she is a divorcee? Why should her family or the community shun her or see her in a bad light? This is not right. Divorce happens. It is unfortunate, but that is life and that is why Allah has made it permissible out of His wisdom. Do people think they know better than Allah?

Ba addinin Musulunci da fiqihunsa ne ke bukatar gyara ba. Eh, talaq sau uku abu ne na cin zarafin hakkin miji na saki, amma fiqihu yana da makami na hana shi a cikinsa, watau sanya saki ya zama na karshe. Amma duk wani hakki da aka ba shi a Shari'a za a iya cin zarafinsa. Misali, hakkin mace na nafaka (kula da ita) ana iya cin zarafinsa, kuma wasu matan Musulmi na yi, wato suna matsa wa mazajensu kudi ba gaira ba dalili. Hakkin sadaki ma ana iya cin zarafinsa, ta hanyar neman sadaki mai yawan gaske. Shin wannan yana nufin a soke hakkin mace na nafaka da sadaki? Yin hakan zai zama soke auren Musulunci kansa. Haka ma gyara ko hana hakkin saki ga maza.

It is not the Islamic tradition and its fiqh that need to be reformed. Yes, triple talaq is an abuse of the husband’s right of talaq, but the fiqh has inbuilt deterrent against it, viz., making the divorce final. But any right given in the Sharia can be abused. For example, a woman’s right to nafaqa (maintenance) can be and is abused by some Muslim women, who basically gouge their husbands financially. The right to mahr can be and is also abused by asking for exorbitant mahr. Does this mean we dissolve a Muslim woman’s right to nafaqa and mahr? Doing so would mean dissolving Islamic marriage itself. Same with reforming or banning the right of talaq for men.

Abin da ke buƙatar gyara da kawar da shi a zahiri shi ne halaye game da saki waɗanda aka karɓo daga addinin Hindu da Kiristanci.

In reality, what needs to be reformed and excised is attitudes towards divorce that have been borrowed from Hinduism and Christianity.

Ya Allah, bari mu zama masu tsaro da kare uwayenmu, 'yan'uwanmu mata da 'ya'yanmu mata Musulmi, ta hanyar bin Alkur'ani, Sunnah da hanyar malaman da suka gabace mu, ba ta hanyar sauye-sauye da yin watsi da waɗannan tushen shiriya ba.

May Allah allow us to be true guardians and protectors of our Muslim mothers, daughters, and sisters by following the Quran, Sunnah, and its scholarly tradition, not by reforming and ignoring those sources of guidance.

NB: I know that a small minority of scholars considered triple talaq at one time as one talaq and I know some contemporary scholars use this position for their fatawa. The above is not trying to argue about the fiqh. Rather the concern is with how traditional fiqh is misunderstood and how that misunderstanding leads to mistaken calls for reform of Islam.
