Judgment text as reported

Mst. MOMINA VS FAHAD SAJJAD Ss. 5, Sched. & 10---Suit for dissolution of marriage---Pre-trial proceedings--- Preliminary decree---Scope---Whenever an application is filed by plaintiff for dissolution of marriage upon failure of pre-trial reconciliation, the marriage is to be dissolved forthwith through a speaking and reasonable order---Dissolution cannot be withheld or refused merely upon pendency of other contesting issues between the parties qua recovery of payment of dower, maintenance or other ancillary matters, which could at best be adjudged after recording pro and contra evidence of the parties---Albiet, if the marriage tie is kept intact on account of other ancillary issues; then, it would be denial of the right so conferred upon the wife by the law, as the very purpose and object of S.10 of Family Courts Act, 1964, is to salvage the wife from hateful union and she should not be compelled in any circumstances to stay in the marriage contract against her will and consent; which would amount to keep the tie of marriage forcefully intact---Decree so passed shall be treated as a preliminary decree, which shall be merged into final decree after recording of pro and contra evidence of the parties.
