Advice to a husband who divorced his wife for medical reasons and then wished to take her back

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man married a woman, and after the marriage, it was medically determined that both spouses are afflicted with a condition, and the probability of the fetus being affected is fifty percent. The man divorced his wife and did not have any children from her. His question is: Is this man sinful for his action? And is what the doctors mentioned a valid justification for the divorce? If not, do you advise him to take her back?

Answer:
In any case, divorce is a right of the man. So if he sees that the woman is not compatible with him, he divorces her. If he sees that she is not suitable for him for one reason or another, whether illness or otherwise, he divorces her. He does not have to improve things in order to divorce her
But if they separate [by divorce], Allah will enrich each [of them] from His abundance. And ever is Allah Encompassing and Wise.وَإِن يَتَفَرَّقَا يُغْنِ اللَّهُ كُلًّا مِّن سَعَتِهِ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ وَاسِعًا حَكِيمًا
[An-Nisa 4:130]
