Dear Querist

If the propertyt is in your mother name then immediately left the home and live in another place and you mother may file a domestic violence case against her or file a civil suit for eviction or file a complaint before the SDM under Senior citizen welfare act-2007 and evict that lady from her home.

your divorce has been completed if the amount of Mahr and iddat period was release by her through bank, now she is not your wife as per law and religion.

No need to worry, if she wants to file the case against you then fight the case on merit and the chances for your win is depend on you and the evidence.

Your mother may also file a criminal complaint against that lady and her brother for criminal trespass and intimidation and harassment before the police.

The marriage is void as shariah does not permit marriage between two non-muslims. You may file a petition for annulment of marriage as your marriage is void.

1. When you married your Muslim wife, did you get converted to Islam?

2. Alternatively, did your wife get converted to Hinduism?

3. If no, then did you marry as per Special Marriage Act?

4. With out being converted in to Islam your marriage to her as per Islamic law is void.

5. Similarly, without her being converted to Hinduism, her marriage to you as per Hindu Marriage Act is void.

6. You shall have to file a divorce petition under the Act based on which you two had married.

Dear Concerned,

You are in a problem.......you need to file a POLICE complaint without delay and also file application in the court about the contempt of the court decree.

Police complaint saying that you have been divorced and your wife has forcefully come to your home and now she might put you under false cases.

Also as this is a rented house it is suggested to leave this house IF possible and shift on rent on a location not known to her. Under Muslim law in any case you will not get the custody of the Girl child (except exceptional circumstances)

Without delay file a police complaint.

Best of luck

1.All your above statements may not be acceptable by the Court as true.

2. They gave you a Muslim name but did you get converted to Islam after following the rituals and customs like reading Kalma? Lawyers should be given correct information to enable them to give proper advise.

3. If you have converted to Islam then you can divorce her as per Islamic Law i.e. pronouncing talaq thrice.

4. If you were made to sign a will by her brothers in favour of your wife and child then title of your property can not be conveyed to them before your demise.

5. So, based on your will your property can not be partitioned in favour of your wife and child.

If your marriage was performed as Muslim religious rites then the divorce or 'talaq' what you pronounced is legally valid.

She is no more your wife and to prove the talak happened between you and your wife the iddat amount she utilised shall be a strong and valid evidence for the divorce between you and her.

You can live separately away from her, she has no rights in your property during your lifetime.

They put a muslim.name at the time of marriage and never give me the nikahnaama or other papers these all papers are with her family...her brothers came at my place and made a will where they mentioned the girl and child name in the part of my property...they went to the court with my sister and mother for partition of property.... they said its time to divde the property and sign there as witnessess of property will...where they put girl and child name in the part of property.

This case cannot run in the court because it is not maintainable in law.

She may posing a threat that way but she cannot achieve her target.

She has no rights to claim a share in it during your lifetime.

1. You have not yet informed under which lw you have got married to your muslim wife.

2. As per Shariat, you shall have to pay 'Den Mehr' after pronouncing triple talaq to her to divorce her as per muslim law.

3. As per Hindu Marriage Act or Special Marriage Act, you can be asked to pay maintenance of an amount which will be fixed by the Court in between 1/5th to 1/3rd of your net monthly earning.

4. Your wife is employed or has earning through which is capable of maintaining herself, then she is not entitled to any amount from you towards maintenance.

The maintenance case shall be decided based on her claims and how you put forth your side commitments/obligations and your income details.

The court will analyse all the facts and the arguments put forth before it by both sides before making a decision.

So you can challenge her claim properly before court.
