What is the ruling on a man to whom his wife, who was divorced three times, is returned through a marriage of dissolution?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, one of the brothers raised a question, may Allah keep you safe. He said: A man divorced his wife with a final major divorce, then, seeking refuge in Allah, he struggled to find a person to marry her, and he did so for one night, and then she was returned to him. They naturally know that this is a trick, but the husband wants to repent to Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He. What should he do?
The Shaykh : This means that this husband, to whom his wife was returned through the method of dissolution, should separate from her and repent to Allah, Mighty and Majestic, with a sincere repentance.
The questioner : Shaykh, if for example he said to his wife, "You are divorced three times," and the judge counted it as three, meaning he counted it as such, is the answer to the issue the same answer?
The Shaykh : Yes, and he married her, meaning.
The questioner : Yes, the same lines were written by the same scribe. Okay, the same previous steps. That is,
The Shaykh : That is, the one whom the judge ruled to be divorced from him with a final major divorce, and who was made lawful to him again, naturally has the same ruling.
The questioner : The same pain. May Allah reward you with good.
