A man divorced his wife while he was in prison, and she married again fifteen days after the divorce!

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: A man divorced his wife while he was in prison, and a full year has passed since his imprisonment. Fifteen days after the divorce, she married another man. What is the ruling on this marriage?

The Shaykh:
He divorced her while he was in prison.

The questioner:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
And she married after fifteen days had passed since the divorce. Is she pregnant, did she give birth, and did she finish her post-natal bleeding? Or is this not valid? If she was pregnant, it is not permissible for her to marry until her waiting period is completed. Also, regarding the divorce, is it a revocable divorce or an irrevocable one? There is a distinction here.
