The practice of triple talaq, or instant divorce, allowed Muslim men to unilaterally divorce their wives by simply saying the word "talaq" (divorce) three times. This practice had been widely criticized as discriminatory against Muslim women, as it left them vulnerable to arbitrary and unfair divorce.

However, in 2019, the Indian government abolished the practice of triple talaq, which has been hailed as a historic decision that benefits Muslim women.
The abolition of triple talaq is a significant step towards gender equality and justice for Muslim women in India.

The practice of triple talaq had been widely criticized as being against the principles of gender equality and justice, as it gave Muslim men unilateral power to end a marriage without any consultation or consent from their wives. This practice led to a situation where Muslim women were often left without any means of support, as they had no legal recourse to challenge the divorce. The abolition of triple talaq has also empowered Muslim women to assert their rights and demand greater gender equality within their communities. This has led to a shift in attitudes towards women's rights and empowerment and has helped to break down patriarchal attitudes that have long been entrenched in Muslim communities in India. It was a historic decision by Modi Govt. Muslim women and progressive Muslim groups have welcomed the decision, arguing that it is in line with the principles of justice and equality.
