A Women’s helpline launched by muslim personal law.

The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has, for the first time, decided to form a women’s wing to expand social reform activities among Muslim women. The Board has also decided to launch an all-India Muslim women helpline to provide guidance to them on family issues. A toll-free call centre in Urdu, English and eight other regional languages will be set up.

The women’s wing would also deal with issues such as family disputes and education.

Taking a historic decision, the board has formed a women’s wing. "Social reform activities among women will be expanded across the country through this wing,” Kamal Farooqui, member of the personal law board’s executive committee, said during a press conference.

The resolution passed at the AIMPB’s three-day convention, stated that the government was infringing into the personal laws of Muslims. The women’s wing would also deal with other issues like family disputes and education, AIMPLB secretary Zafaryab Jellani told a press conference .

 With several petitions having been filed against triple talaq, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) had launched a helpline for women in November last year in what the board said was a move to empower Muslim women. This was after they had supported triple talaq.

Member of the women’s wing of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) Asma Zehra  said that Prime Minister’s comments against triple talaq and implementation of a uniform civil code had acted as a blessing in disguise for Muslim women.

“About 10 crore women, across the country, through a signature campaign had expressed their support for the Muslim Personal Law and had also said that they knew that the attempt to implement a uniform civil code was a tool to interfere with the Muslim Personal Law which is our constitutional right,” Zehra said. She added that Modi’s attempt had helped lakhs of Muslim women to be aware of the rules of ‘talaq’ and their rights during separation.
