Indian Muslim Women Challenge Instant Verbal Divorce

The Indian Supreme Court is deciding whether the practice of instant verbal divorce is constitutional or not.

In India, a Muslim man can simply say the word divorce or talaq thrice and end his marriage. The woman is not allowed to contest this divorce.

India's top court will pronounce its verdict next week.
