The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has strongly criticized a Supreme Court plea challenging the Islamic law of inheritance, labeling it 'mischievous'.
This plea, brought forth by Naya Nari Foundation, claims the inheritance law discriminates against Muslim women, an assertion that AIMPLB refutes.
AIMPLB emphasizes that these laws are rooted in the Quran and Sunnah, thus integral, while advocating for religious freedom under Article 25 of the Constitution.
