Under the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019, a pronouncement of talaq-ul-biddat…

Section 3 of the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019 declares any pronouncement of talaq-ul-biddat by a Muslim husband upon his wife, whether by words spoken or written, in electronic form or in any other manner, void and illegal, and section 4 makes it punishable with imprisonment up to three years and fine. Following Shayara Bano v. Union of India (2017), which set aside talaq-ul-biddat, such a pronouncement does not dissolve the marriage at all; it is neither a complete nor an incomplete, revocable or irrevocable divorce, so "None of the given options is correct".

Under classical Hanafi law, talaq-ul-biddat was treated as a complete and irrevocable divorce as soon as it was pronounced, unlike talaq-ul-sunnat, which can be revoked during iddat.
