The occurrence of divorce in a state of anger
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I divorced my wife with one pronouncement of divorce, and she was menstruating. Does the divorce take effect? However, I was angry.
Answer:
What Allah willed. The majority of scholars hold that the divorce takes effect, even if it was during menstruation or during a period of impurity, and even if the person was angry, unless his anger was such that it removed his awareness. If his anger reached a stage that removed his awareness, so that he did not know what he was saying, then it does not take effect. So a divorce in that state is invalid. But if his awareness remained and he knew what he was saying, then his divorce takes effect, even if he had some anger. Yes.
