As per the Mohd Ahmad Khan vs Shah bano AIR 1985 SC 945, after the dissolution of marriage the husband must continue to maintain the wife till her remarriage under section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code.

Mr. N.K. Assumi is absolutely right. I do agree with the views of my Ld. Friend.

Asper The Muslim Women (Rights on Divorce Act) a muslim girl is entitled to obtain maintenance from her erstwhile husband till she remarries. That amount may be either monthly payments or a payment in lumpsum.

Refer Daniel Lathifi Vs State case it will be reported in 2000 supreme court cases i think so.
