Tera Tezi observed at Cumbum Tank Bund
Safar is the month that is considered inauspicious by some Muslims according to their tradition. It is said that the Prophet Mohammed suffered illness in the first 12 days of the Safar month and recovered on the 13th day. So, the Muslims do not celebrate any events of joy and fun in those 12 days. Since the first day of the Safar, after seeing the crescent moon, the newlyweds also will not face each other for 12 days. On the 13th day, all of the family members gather at the tank bund and dispose of the garlands used in the marriage and celebrate the day together.
The Cumbum tank, which is the second largest in Asia, is the place for the Tera Tezi celebration in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The Muslim group spent time at the tank until they saw the moon. Theyoffered prayers for the crops and water at the Deenashahvali Dargah and promised to come again the following year once their wishes came true. The Dargah management, Lions Club and members of other local voluntary organisations arranged water, orange juice, and buttermilk for the people.

'Mutual Verbal Consent Sufficient': Gujarat HC's Nod To Islamic Law On Dissolution Of Muslim Marriage
The Gujarat High Court ruled that Muslim marriages can be verbally dissolved if both parties consent, and there is no need for a written document under 'mubaraat' In a nod to Islamic law, the Gujarat High Court recently observed that a Muslim marriage can be dissolved through mutual verbal consent, or mubaraat. Mubaraat, or mutual consent divorce, is based on mutual verbal consent and does not need a written agreement as both spouses agree to separate. This is permissible under Islamic personal law and the ruling aligns with the principles of the Quran and Hadith cited by the court. In doing so, the court set aside a family court order that rejected the divorce plea based on the absence of a written agreement for mutual consent. A bench of Justices AY Kogje and NS Sanjay Gowda made the observation while overturning the family court order, which stated that a written agreement was necessary in mubaraat. 'The court does not find that recording of an agreement between the parties to the nikah in any written format is essential for recording the fact of dissolution of marriage. For the purpose of mubaraat, the expression of a mutual consent to dissolution of nikah is sufficient to dissolve the nikah in itself," the bench said, as per Bar and Bench. mubaraat nikah or a Muslim marriage does not mean that it is an essential requirement under Muslim personal law. ' Nikahnama only recognises the agreement entered into by the parties to the marriage by uttering the words qabool in presence of the witness that does not make a nikahnama or registration of a nikah part of an essential process of nikah. Similarly, there is no process by which the written agreement is an essential requirement for mubaraat," the court was quoted in its ruling. The HC was hearing a joint appeal filed by an estranged couple, whose divorce plea was dismissed by the family court in April. The two parties married in 2021, but had been living separately for more than a year due to irreconcilable differences. They mutually agreed to dissolve the marriage and opted for mubaraat. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Gujarat HC: Muslim marriage can end with verbal mutual consent; quashes Rajkot Court's written-consent rule
AHMEDABAD: In a significant ruling, the Gujarat High Court has held that a Muslim marriage can be dissolved through Mubaraat mutual consent divorce without any written agreement, overturning a Rajkot family court order that had insisted on such a document. The Gujarat High Court has ruled that a Muslim couple can end their marriage through Mubaraat without a written record of consent, declaring that neither the Quran, Hadith, nor Muslim personal law demands it. A bench of Justices AY Kogje and NS Sanjay Gowda set aside a Rajkot family court's decision that had rejected a joint divorce plea solely because no written agreement existed. The family court had dismissed the case under Section 7 of the Family Courts Act, saying a written record was essential. The couple, married in 2021, had been living apart for over a year due to irreconcilable differences and had mutually decided to separate under Mubaraat. They challenged the lower court's ruling, arguing that under Shariat law, written documentation is not a prerequisite for divorce by mutual consent.
