Divorced her in writing three times

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 79 )
Q: I previously divorced my wife and wrote her a paper with the following wording: "I, (..), in full possession of my legal faculties, declare that I have divorced my wife, (..), three times. She is forbidden to me and permissible to others. I have authorized those who testify to Allah, who is the best of witnesses: divorced, divorced, divorced." .

A: Since the husband previously divorced his wife and wrote to her what was mentioned in the question, she is divorced three times; because he explicitly stated "three" first, and repeated the formula of divorce at the end, his first wording indicates that he intended the repetition to establish the divorce rather than to confirm it. Accordingly, this wife is not permissible for him until she marries another husband, he consummates the marriage with her, and her waiting period from the second husband ends. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
