The correct answer is (a) Hanafi School.
The Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act, 1939 is an Act of the Parliament of India that provides for the dissolution of marriages among Muslims. The Act is based on the principles of the Hanafi School of Muslim law.
The Hanafi School is one of the four main schools of Sunni Islamic law. It is the oldest and most widely followed school of Sunni law, and is the official school of law in many Muslim countries. The Hanafi School is named after its founder, Abu Hanifa (699-767 CE).
The Hanafi School is characterized by its emphasis on reason and its flexibility in interpreting the Quran and Sunnah. The Hanafi School is also known for its tolerance of other schools of thought.
The Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act, 1939 was enacted to provide a uniform law for the dissolution of marriages among Muslims in India. The Act was passed in response to the growing number of cases of marital discord among Muslims in India. The Act provides for the dissolution of marriages on grounds such as cruelty, desertion, insanity, and impotence.
The Act has been criticized by some for being too lenient towards husbands. However, the Act has also been praised for providing a much-needed legal framework for the dissolution of marriages among Muslims in India.
The other options are incorrect because they are not the schools of Muslim law on which the Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act, 1939 is based.
