In Pakistan, Khula is a legal right granted to Muslim women under Islamic Family Law to seek dissolution of marriage. Unlike Talaq (unilateral divorce by the husband), Khula allows a wife to initiate separation through court proceedings.

ADV Azad Ali, an experienced family lawyer in Pakistan, provides expert guidance on Khula procedure, ensuring women’s rights are protected under Pakistani law.


Khula in Pakistani Law – Key Facts

1. Legal Basis of Khula in Pakistan

·         Governed by the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961

·         Recognized under Section 8 (Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act, 1939)

·         The wife has the right to seek Khula without the husband’s consent, but she may have to return the dower (Mehr) unless waived by the husband.

2. Grounds for Khula in Pakistan

A woman can file for Khula on grounds such as:
 Cruelty or abuse (physical/emotional)

 Failure to provide maintenance
 Husband’s impotency or incurable disease
 Irreconcilable differences


Khula Process in Pakistan – Step-by-Step Procedure

o    CNIC copies (both spouses)

o    Proof of grounds for Khula (if applicable)

Step 2: Court Notice & Husband’s Response

Step 3: Final Decree & Iddat Period

·         The wife must observe Iddat (waiting period) – 3 menstrual cycles or 3 months.
