In a mubarat divorce under Muslim law:

Mubarat denotes mutual release where both spouses desire separation and agree to end the marriage. Either may initiate the offer, but the acceptance and desire to separate are mutual. It must be distinguished from describing aversion solely on the husband’s or solely on the wife’s side.

Current law: For a marriage governed by Uttarakhand Code, sections 27 and 29 require the applicable court-based mutual-consent dissolution process rather than treating a private religious release alone as the Code decree. The statutory scope, exemptions and waiver conditions must be considered.
