UNIFORM CIVIL CODE AND TRIPLE TALAQBold text I believe this is an issue that educated Muslims have to take up and fight with their clergy. Hindus got a progressive reform in civil code in 1956 due to the fight within the community. Since then the prosperity levels of Indian Hindus and Muslims diverged. Other Indian communities like Christians also enjoy the progressive civil code that emerged after 1956 and have gone way richer than the Muslims. n matters such as the Triple talaq, even many Muslim theocracies like Iran and Pakistan have banned that practice but we are defending it. [If Pakistan and 21 other countries have abolished triple talaq, why can't India?] Many countries like Azerbaijan and Tunisia don’t allow polygamy. Indian Muslims are the only community whose civil code was not changed much since independence and unsurprisingly the community suffers from low literacy, high poverty and low women empowerment. How can the community get rich without its women and how can the women come out without their due rights? Everytime there is a call to reform Muslim personal laws, there is a diversionary tactic used assuming that Hindu laws will be enforced on them. Even if the topic of the Uniform Civil Code is too controversial, let the educated Muslims at least push for their personal laws to get closer to progressive Islamic countries like Turkey. Ultimately its they who have to suffer from unreformed laws. All other religious communities have had big reforms in their personal laws over the past few decades.
