💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court has stated that decisions by Sharia courts are not recognized by law in India, but can be binding if accepted by parties. The court made this statement in a maintenance case filed by a Muslim woman, who was denied maintenance by a family court and the Allahabad High Court, despite her husband's attempts to divorce her through a Sharia court.
