Question

Slm I have a question regarding a talaq or multiple times was uttered

Could you plz update me with rulings etc

Also, to include the rulings between different madhabs

Jazakallah Khair

 

The incident is as follow

Incident

Slm

The incident is such

Which took place

The first time talaaq was uttered it was uttered which the husband which is myself said to my wife while I was playing with my wife’s fingers and suddenly looked at a ring on her hand and said while removing the ring from her finger “I talaaq you” , out of the blue not having a conversation

The was no intention of talaaq by the man the intention was to start a conversation about how can it be that this rings means we are something and if no ring as I removed the ring we are divorced

There was not intention of talaaq

The intention was to start a conversation about talaaq you

Incident That followed after

A talaq was given

Upon possible request

Not to say I don’t regret it

I felt it’s my duty to free her cause only I have the power without proper thinking we keep talking about talaq and it was a fresh work from the first time it was used

So it’s being said for the second time

So by this time I found 1 talaq was given

Incident that followed after that

General talks And trying to talk about me wanting to have a second wife and I could not engage in the conversation and in the spur of the moment I said I talaq you

Both times were in English

Both times were addressed to my wife

Both times intentions were different

And same for the third time which is a little bit more complicated

We were having a normal argument I felt I was disrespected, and I should free my wife

So I said I divorce you

And then we carried on with our argument with much more heat this time

In a period of 1 hour

I said I don’t regret Divorcing you

I divorce you

Saying at that time

The intention behind that words is my question what was meant weather the fourth time divorce was addressed at my wife

The intension is unsure if it was given to reinstate talaq 3?? ? or to remind about talaq 2??

Brother in Islam,

We take note of the contents of your email.

The Darul Iftaa answers questions according to the Hanafi Fiqh of School.

Kindly clarify the time frame between the multiple divorce statements uttered for us to issue a ruling.

Hereunder are the two different types of divorces:

 

(1)Talaaq-e-Rajie is a type of divorce wherein the husband divorces his wife in express and explicit terms, for example, Talaaq or I divorce you etc.

The implication of Talaaq-e-Rajie is: the wife becomes divorced and she has to sit in Iddah (waiting period) for three menstrual cycles if she experiences menses or three months if she does not experience menses or child birth if she has conceived.

If the husband wishes to revoke his divorce, he may do so during the Iddah period. The husband may revoke his divorce by verbally taking her back or by being intimate with her.

If the husband does not revoke the divorce during the Iddah period, the divorce becomes an irrevocable divorce. Therefore, if he wishes to take her back (after the Iddah period has lapsed), he can only do so after renewing the Nikah. [1]

 

(2)Talaaq-e-Baain is an irrevocable divorce where the husband uses ambiguous words or phrases to divorce his wife, for example, get out, I don’t want you, pack your bags etc.

Talaaq e Baain will only take effect if the husband utters the statements with the intention of divorce.

The implication of Talaaq-e-Baain is once the husband issues his wife a Talaaq-e- Baain, she has to sit in Iddah. If the husband wishes to take back his wife, he may do so only after renewing the Nikah. [2]

Kindly revert to us with information requested.

 

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

إذَا كان الطَّلَاقُ بَائِنًا دُونَ الثَّلَاثِ فَلَهُ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا في الْعِدَّةِ وَبَعْدَ انْقِضَائِهَا وَإِنْ كان الطَّلَاقُ ثَلَاثًا في الْحُرَّةِ وَثِنْتَيْنِ في الْأَمَةِ لم تَحِلَّ له حتى تَنْكِحَ زَوْجًا غَيْرَهُ نِكَاحًا صَحِيحًا وَيَدْخُلَ بها ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقَهَا أو يَمُوتَ عنها كَذَا في الْهِدَايَةِ وَلَا فَرْقَ في ذلك بين كَوْنِ الْمُطَلَّقَةِ مَدْخُولًا بها أو غير مَدْخُولٍ بها كَذَا في فَتْحِ الْقَدِيرِ

الهداية في شرح بداية المبتدي (2/ 257)

وإذا كان الطلاق بائنا دون الثلاث فله أن يتزوجها في العدة وبعد انقضائها ” لأن حل المحلية باق لأن زواله معلق بالطلقة الثالثة فينعدم قبله ومنع الغير في العدة لاشتباه النسب ولا اشتباه في إطلاقه ” وإن كان الطلاق ثلاثا في الحرة أو ثنتين في الأمة لم تحل له حتى تنكح زوجا غيره نكاحا صحيحا ويدخل بها ثم يطلقها أو يموت عنها
