Sarah Hatim, a Senior psychologist from Taskeen, represented us on Madeha Naqvi’s show on Samaa TV. The discussion focused on khula, understanding the reasons behind the rising divorce rate in the country, women’s rights related to khula, and the importance of raising awareness about this process. The panel featured diverse guests including a lawyer, a religious scholar and a spiritual life coach to bring forward multiple perspectives such as legal, psychological, and spiritual viewpoints on this sensitive and often misunderstood topic.
The conversation also highlighted real-life stories of women who had gone through the process of khula, sharing their experiences, the challenges they faced, and the steps they took to achieve their desired outcomes. Together, the guests analyzed these stories and discussed the broader social and cultural trends contributing to the increasing number of divorces, emphasizing the need for empathy, understanding, and informed dialogue around the issue.
