The Allahabad High Court on Saturday ruled that a divorced Muslim woman is entitled to claim maintenance from former husband under Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) even after the completion of her iddat period and for her entire life, unless she remarries. The court also held that it is the constitutional obligation of a husband to provide maintenance to his wife.
