NEW DELHI: While the Centre’s triple talaq Bill is yet to clear the Opposition’s hurdle in the Rajya Sabha and see the light of day, in a softening of stand, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board is likely to agree to codification of Muslim personal laws.ET has learnt that as part of nation-wide consultations undertaken by the Law Commission to pave the way for the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code, the board is expected to agree to codification of personal laws related to the issues of adoption and inheritance as laid out in the Sharia. The commission is looking at codifying and reviewing personal laws with a ‘gender justice’ lens and the board is expected to meet the commission on July 31, sources said.On the issue of minimum age of marriage, the board is also expected to tell the commission that it is open to reforms or ‘tweaks’ provided they are well within the tenets of Islam. While the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, 2006 stipulates 18 and 21 years as minimum age for marriage for girls and boys, respectively under the Islamic law, marriage as per Islam is permitted after puberty. The board will however, reiterate its stand against the implementation of Uniform Civil Code, as was expressed in its firt meeting with the commission in April last year.“We are okay with codification of laws as per the Quran. But will continue to oppose the UCC as we are a country of many religious identities and cultures that need to be respected,” a member said.As part of a meeting held with the members of the personal law board in May, the law commission had sought a response on why women could only get half a share in property.The AIMPLB will make its opposition clear over the issue of adoption. In Islam, adoption is prohibited for the fear of sexual relations between the adoptive parents and child, the board claimed. The commission made it clear that it will not examine the issues of nikah halala and polygamy among Muslims since the matters are sub-judice.
