A Muslim divorced woman can apply directly to the Wakf Board when there is no relative to support her. This was held in which one of the following cases ?

Yusuf V/s Sowramma
A.A. Abdullah V/s A.B. Mohmuna Syed Bhai
Secretary, T.N. Wakf Board V/s Syed Fatima Nachi
Mohd. Ahrnad Khan V/s Shah Bano Begum

The correct answer is (c) Secretary, T.N. Wakf Board V/s Syed Fatima Nachi.

In this case, the Supreme Court held that a Muslim divorced woman can apply directly to the Wakf Board when there is no relative to support her. The Court held that the Wakf Board is a public charitable trust and is therefore bound to provide maintenance to a Muslim divorced woman who is unable to support herself.

The other options are incorrect because they do not deal with the issue of a Muslim divorced woman applying directly to the Wakf Board for maintenance.

(a) Yusuf V/s Sowramma is a case about the validity of a Muslim marriage.
(b) A.A. Abdullah V/s A.B. Mohmuna Syed Bhai is a case about the custody of a child after divorce.
(d) Mohd. Ahrnad Khan V/s Shah Bano Begum is a case about the right of a Muslim divorced woman to maintenance from her husband.
