Muslim Conversion And Forced Divorce | Vkeel - Free Legal Advice

My girlfriend asked me to convert me to Islam from Hindu to convince her strict parents about marriage. I did this out of my will in order to marry her. But her parents still didn't agree & made divorce forcibly as per Islamic law immediately. They have bit of political connections, my family is not beside me and my job profile has her name as wife. Her parents have also snatched all my papers of conversion and i have few photos only regarding my conversion. We both love each other but her parents kept her locked, so no contact. We both are adult and are not in prohibited relationship. It happened 6 months ago. What legal steps I can avail now to get her back? Can i file any case in kolkata high court directly? Help plz

Yes file a writ of habeas corpus. Try to get duplicate copies of conversion certificate first and also your nikhahnama. Contact me on 8013021818

Yes a writ petition is maintainable in Hon’ble High Court and if you have fear to your life in Kolkata then you may file in Supreme Court.

I'm sorry to hear that you and your wife are going through such a difficult situation. It's important to note that religious conversion should always be a personal choice, and it's not a good idea to convert just to appease someone else. In regards to your current situation, it's essential to prioritize the safety and well-being of your wife. If she is being locked in her room and is not free to make her own decisions, that is a severe issue that needs to be addressed immediately. It's essential to talk to your wife and understand her situation better. You can try to convince her to talk to her parents and make them understand that you both love each other and want to be together. If her parents are not willing to listen, then you may want to consider getting legal help. You can contact a lawyer who can guide you on what legal steps can be taken to ensure your wife's safety and help you get her back. If your wife is being held against her will, it's important to report this to the authorities as well. In any case, it's crucial to approach this situation with sensitivity, understanding, and respect for all parties involved. Seek support from your family and friends and do not hesitate to seek professional help if required. Father more you can also file a case of habeas Corpus for the high court of the Supreme Court of India in order to get your wife back
