An Islamic court has allowed a Muslim woman to go for a second marriage.

New Delhi: An Islamic court has allowed a Muslim woman, whose husband has been missing since last five years, to go for a second marriage after taking into consideration the Gudiya's case.

Wahida Begum, whose husband Imran from Deoband, Muzaffarnagar had mysteriously disappeared five years ago and could not be traced despite her best efforts, approached the Shariah court seeking the permission to remarry.

Wahida, in her deposition, said that she had been living with her parents ever since her husband went missing. The Shariah court accepted her plea and allowed her to remarry after taking into consideration the Gudiya case, which hogged media limelight two years ago.

Gudiya, whom the Shariah court had allowed to remarry, faced a dilemma when her first husband returned back after being missing for few years at a time when she was pregnant with her second husband's baby.

She was later asked by community panchayat to leave her second husband and reunite with first one. Gudiya later died.

In a separate ruling, the Shariah court allowed a woman Tarannum, who was divorced by her husband, to remarry after completing her iddat (four months time) period started from the date of verdict.

However, Tarannum's husband claimed that he had given the divorce at a time when he was upset because of an injury in his head. The court rejected his plea and said the divorced had been performed.

The Islamic seminary Darul-Uloom had referred the case to Shariah court asking it to decide the future of Tarannum and her husband Wasim.
