Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a man divorces his wife and, during the waiting period, he has intercourse with her without intending to take her back, but only wanting to relieve his need from her, what is the ruling in that?

Answer:
Is this considered a taking back? Is intercourse considered a taking back? He took her back by that. This is more emphatic than words, more emphatic than saying, "I have taken her back." Yes.
