Summary
This ruling holds that the ta'liq formula is highly appropriate to maintain, given the high divorce rate and cases where wives' rights are neglected. The ta'liq regulation was introduced as a preventive measure (sadd al-zari'ah) to protect harmony and the rights of each party. Even so, some of its conditions and wording may need to be amended by relevant experts and researchers.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Penulis berpendapat dengan situasi dan banyak kes yang berlaku sighah ta'liq dan lafaz amat wajar untuk diadakan walaupun mungkin keperluan untuk meminda beberapa syarat dan ta'liq oleh pakar-pakar dan pengkaji berkenaan dengan isu ini.
