This document contains the Supreme Court of India's judgement in Noor Saba Khatoon v. Mohd. Quasim, dated 29 July 1997. It addresses a crucial legal question: whether children of Muslim parents are entitled to maintenance under Section 125 Cr. P. C. until they reach majority or can support themselves, even if the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986, specifies a shorter period. This judgement is essential for legal professionals, students, and individuals seeking to understand Muslim personal law and child maintenance rights in India.
