The All India Muslim Personal Law Board on Sundaಞy stated that they were against the recent Supreme Court verdict on maintenance to Muslim women as 🦩it is 'against the Islamic law(Shariah)' and added that their president will explore measures to overturn the ruling.
The board also decided to challenge▨ in the Uttarakhand High Court the Uniform Civil Code🌜 brought in the state.
The AIMPLB Working Committee organised a meeting in Delhi to discuss the recent Supreme Court ruling - that a Muslim woman can seek maintenance from her husband under Sectio🌱n 125 of the CrPC and said the "religion-neutral" provision is applicable to all married women irrespective of th🐼eir religion.
In a statement, issued after the meeting, the AIMPLB said, "The Board emphasised that the Holy Prophet had mentioned that amongst all permissible deeds the most abhorred is divorꦇce in the sight of Allah, hence it is🅠 desirable to continue the marriage by applying all permissible measures to safeguard it and follow several guidelines mentioned in Holy Quran about it."
"However, if married life becomes difficult to maintain🐭, then divorce was prescribed as a solution to mankind," it said.
The board oꦐbserved that this judgment will create further problems to women who have successfully come out of the⭕ir painful relationship, the statement said.
The AIMPLB authorised its president, Kha🎐lid Saifullah Rahmani, to initiate all possible measures "legal, constitutional and democratic"? to ensure that this decision by the Supreme Court is "rolled back", AIMPLB spokesperson SQR Ilyas said at a press conference here.
Five other resolutions, including one ag🔯ainst the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), were also passed during the meeting of the working committee of🔴 the AIMPLB.
