The occurrence of divorce during menstruation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We hope you will clarify the ruling on a condition in the case of a man who divorced his wife while she was menstruating. Does this divorce take effect or not?

Answer:
The majority of scholars hold that it takes effect. The majority hold that it takes effect, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered Ibn 'Umar, when he divorced his wife while she was menstruating, to take her back. And taking back a wife is only possible from a divorce that has taken effect, only from a divorce that has taken effect. Yes.
