As per Muslim personal law, by the third pronouncement (utterance) of Talaq, which kind of Talaq becomes effective?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Talaq-e-Hasan consists of three pronouncements made in three successive periods of purity (tuhr); it can be revoked until the third pronouncement and becomes irrevocable when the third is made, so "Talaq-e-Hasan" is correct. Talaq-e-Ahsan is a single pronouncement followed by abstinence during iddat, and talaq-e-tafweez is a delegated divorce.
Current law: Shayara Bano (2017) and sections 2(c), 3 and 4 of the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019 strike at instant, irrevocable talaq-e-biddat or a similar form. They do not treat the talaq-e-Hasan procedure, spread over successive periods, as prohibited instant triple talaq.
