Question

My ex and I have been advised that I cud make nikah with someone (by agreement) so that after he gives me talaaq, I will be able to re - marry my ex.I was given 3 talaaqs by my ex and we are not living together, though we would like to reconcile ONLY if it were possible.Pls advise if the halala procedure is an option, Jazakallah.

Answer

It is Makrooh-e-Tahrimi (abhorred) to perform Nikah with the express condition of Halaalah. However, if the intention of Halaalah is concealed at the time of marriage, it is not Makrooh. (Raddul Muhtaar vol.3 pg.414; HM Saeed)

The person performing the second marriage will be rewarded if he marries with the sole intention of reconciling the wife to her former husband. The curse in the Hadith is when Halaalah is done with remuneration. (Dars-e-Tirmidhi vol.3 pg.398-401; Karachi)

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.”

How does a husband take his wife back after talaaq?

“If the halaalah was pre arranged between the first husband and the person who did the halaalah (second husband), then this is not permissible and is a major sin. The hadith has explained that both people are cursed by Allah…”
