Description

The concept of alaq-ul-biddat dates back to the 2nd century of the Islamic period. There is no passage in the Holy Quran that may be construed to validate so-called tripe talaq. Although triple talaq is legal, it is a prohibited method of dissolving a marriage. Triple talaq was denounced by the Prophet as “playing with the book of God while I am still alive."

Following the death of the Prophet, the second Caliph, Umar implemented triple talaq in order to avoid religious misappropriation and abuse. When the Arabs conquered Egypt, Persia, Syria, and other states, they discovered that the ladies in other countries were more attractive than Arabian women. Women from Syria and Egypt stated that if they want to marry them, they must divorce their current partners first by pronouncing talaq in one sitting. Therefore, Arab males promptly accepted this requirement since they understood that in Islam, divorce is only permitted twice in two distinct times of tuhr, and declaring triple talaq in one sitting is invalid, un-Islamic, and ineffective. Arabs had the terrible aim of not only marrying these ladies but also keeping their wives in this manner.
