The Ruling on Divorce via a Mobile Message

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on pronouncing divorce by sending a mobile phone message that says, "You are divorced"?

Answer:
If a man pronounces divorce or writes it down with the intention of divorcing, it takes effect. So if he writes it on his mobile phone or on a piece of paper intending divorce, it takes effect.
