What is the ruling on a man who divorced his wife, then married another, and later discovered that his first wife had been wronged?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: My wife asked me for a divorce after a quarrel with the family, and six months later I divorced her and married another. But after I traveled, it became clear that she had been wronged.

Answer:
We do not intervene in matters of divorce because they require verification and the presence of both parties, the husband and the wife. Such cases are referred to the Shari'ah courts or the Ifta' offices.
