No. But this may help you to confront while in evidence. Audio recording can be used provided it is authenticated and matched with the voice of your wife

Do not bank upon audio tape alone as submitting audio recoridng is very dififcult and cumbersome

There is not much worry about the 498A case as if the case is false it fail .The burden of proof lies solely on prosecution which is very high in degree of standard.

So if you defend properly then there is nothing much to get scared of.

In recent cases, various courts have given their approval to voice recording as an admissible evidence. Court have given their assent on admissibility as an evidence to conversations recorded on phone using a call recording app or a sound recording app provided certain conditions are fulfilled.

It is not advisable to apply for divorce by having digital records like., mobile call recordings.

Think of mutual consent divorce.

Discuss with any lawyer on the forum on your issues.

The question is about the divorce case in the court and the divorce process as per Shariat law.

You can take the Shariat route of pronouncing Triple talaq at three different times observing iddat and the decision may be communicated to her by registered post with a witness attesting your decision to give her talaq.

Once you followed the talaq by procedure as provided by the provisions of Shariat law, it will be considered that your marriage with her is dissolved which cannot be challenged by her in any court.

After that you can withdraw the divorce petition pending before court by producing the talaqnama obtained from the Masjid form where you pronounced the triple talaq as per Shariat laws.

No you must withdraw the divorce to tart the divorce process as per the personal laws. It is not advised to start two process for same prayer.

Also after obtaining talaw you can file a suit for declaration in the civil court.

Your religion was not highlighted with your query.

Since you are a follower of Islam, you may divorce your wife through a talaq-e-hasan, which is an approved practice under Islam.

There is no harm and you may go ahead and follow the advice of your parents.
