Question

Mights sound like a silly question, i just need clarity of this issue. Shafi

If a man gave his ex wife 3 talaq over a period of time verbally, the Authority (Mus. Assembly) has only 2 on record, is he divorced from this woman?

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

If a husband issued his wife three talaqs in one sitting or in different sittings, that will be regarded as talaq-e-mughallazah (a permanently irrevocable divorce). They cannot live together as husband and wife even though the authority (Muslim Assembly) has two talaqs recorded.

And Allah knows best

Wassalam

Do three talaqs in one sitting count as three?

“The law of shariah is that once the husband issues three divorces, the nikaah totally terminates and there is no way for the husband to reconcile. Both husband and wife become haraam for each other.”
