Written divorce
Question
My father signed a written divorce for my second mother. He has given three divorce at one time. It is written like I divorce you, I divorce you, I divorce you. Will it be taken as complete divorce or only one?
Answer
The divorce is complete.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
