Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner, 'Atiqah from Jeddah, says: If a man wants to take back his wife after having divorced her with one pronouncement of divorce, what must he do in this case? Is there a bridal gift? And must he announce it?
Answer:
There is no bridal gift; because as long as she is in the waiting period and her divorce is revocable, she is his wife. He takes her back by saying, "I have taken back my wife," or "I have promised to take her back," or "I have reclaimed her," or something similar. This is sufficient. If he bears witness to it with two witnesses, that is recommended. It is recommended to bear witness to the taking back. Yes.
