The Return of a Woman Divorced Three Times and the Use of Deception

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man has divorced his wife three times and wants to take her back, but he found a hadith that curses the one who uses deception and another hadith that appears on its surface to permit deception. He says: What is the correct position on this matter?

Answer:
This is a matter of deception. There is no deception. There is no deception regarding women. It is forbidden except through a marriage contract. If he divorced her three times, if he had an excuse, or if he was coerced, or if this was the case. But if he was not coerced and did it of his own free will, then she is divorced three times. The best thing is for him to go to the Department of Ifta, submit his question, and have it looked into, if Allah wills. Yes, they will determine whether he had an excuse or not. Yes.
