Interesting:
1. What is this actually called?It is called Ta‘liq (Taklik) nikah. In Malaysia, ta‘liq is legally recognised under state Islamic Family Law enactments. 2. What is Ta‘liq Nikah?Ta‘liq is a conditional divorce clause agreed to at the time of nikah. ???? If the husband breaches the agreed conditions, the wife can apply to the Syariah Court to confirm that divorce has occurred — without needing the husband’s consent. Important: 3. Is this already practised in Malaysia?Yes. Automatically. Every Muslim marriage in Malaysia already includes a standard ta‘liq (read aloud after akad nikah), such as: Husband abandons wife for 4 months Husband fails to provide nafkah Husband causes physical harm
If proven, the wife can go to court and activate it. 4. Can a woman ADD her own conditions?Yes — and this is the part many people don’t know. Before marriage, a woman may request additional ta‘liq conditions, for example: No polygamy without written consent Husband must provide a minimum nafkah amount No physical or emotional abuse Freedom to work or study No abandonment beyond X months
