The '''triple talaq''' is a mechanism for divorce which exists in ] and its associated forms of Islam, while rejected by the ]. It simply consists of the husband saying the phrase ''I divorce you'' (Arabic:''talaq'') to the wife, three times. | |||

The practice is banned by law in many nations, including ], ], ], ], ], ], ], and ]{{Citation needed|date=October 2010}}. (Most of these countries are ] dominated regions.) | |||
Indian Courts do not hold any ''talaq'' without arbitration and reconciliation as valid ''talaq''. | |||
== Different Islamic views on triple talaq == | |||
Some Sunnis prefer a similar method of divorce, in which the three ''talaq'' statements are said at three intervals, during three successive ]s of the wife, provided no sexual relations have taken place between the couple. This is considered legally acceptable by some Sunni religious authorities. Both these Sunnis and Shi'as have very similar views in that respect. | |||
]s have a very dim view of this practice since they believe it makes a mockery of the principles and aim of both ''nikah'' and ''talaq'', and is un-Quranic. Shi'a believe that a ''talaq'' procedure is not completed until the end of the '']''. Repeating "''talaq''" during that period means nothing more than expressing the determination to fulfill the procedure and therefore bears no juridical consequences. In other words, it is the procedure that counts, not the actual words. Moreover shi'as hold that reconciliation during the iddah period can effectively repeal a Talaq and therefore the couple may remain married. According to this position Three-fold Talaq in one instance or sitting has no validity to permanently separate the couple but in essence counts as a single Talaq utterance. | |||
