Mohd. Ahmed Khan vs Shah Bano Begum And Ors on 23 April, 1985
31. Sreedharan, J. of Kerala High Court (as he then was) in Ali v. Sufaira 1988 (3) Crimes 147, on consideration of the decision in Shah Bano's case and also the statement of objects and reasons of the 1986 Act, held that the liability of the former husband to make a reasonable and fair provision under Section 3(1)(a) is not restricted only for the iddat period but the divorced woman is entitled to a reasonable and fair provision for her future being made by her former husband and also to maintenance being paid to her for the iddat period. It is obvious from the said judgment that the two words "made" and "paid" have to" be so construed so as to make Section 3(1)(a) effective. Therefore, the husband must not only pay maintenance for the iddat period, but he must also make a reasonable and fair provision for the future of his former wife.
