All India Muslim Personal Law Board vice president Kalbe Sadiq has said the Board will end the practice of ''triple talaq'' in one-and-a-half years and the government should not interfere in the matter.
He also advised Muslims against eating beef.
Mr. Sadiq, who was here on Monday to attend a programme, said the ''triple talaq'' system was unfair to women but it was a personal affair of the community and they would solve it themselves within one to one-and-a-half years. The government should not interfere in it.
On beef consumption, he said that in religious books eating beef was not advised and Muslims should not have it.
Mr. Sadiq said if the government enacted laws banning cow slaughter and beef eating in the country, Muslims would welcome it. He condemned the unlawful activities of cow vigilantes and demanded an end to such acts.
Ram temple issue
On the Ram temple issue, he said the dispute should end now and Hindus and Muslims should yield some ground to each other so as to reach a compromise.
Muslims should not insist on making a mosque at the site where a temple would be built, he said.
