The ruling on one who divorces his wife three times in two sessions
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
From Iraq—Mosul—University of Mosul. A message sent by our brother 'Abd al-Hamid Muhammad Abu al-Hawa, stating: "I uttered the words of divorce to my wife three times. This was due to family disagreements at home. After these words of divorce, I took her to her parents' house. After a while, my family insisted that I take my wife back. At the same time, I was angry, so I repeated the words of divorce: she is divorced, divorced, divorced.
When I found myself in a state of collapse, I thought about traveling to get away from the problems I was facing. Two months after my departure, I received a letter from my family saying that your wife has been brought back to the house, as she is four months pregnant, and she has two other children who are my children? Is it possible to return to her with her three children, who are my children? They are the adornment of worldly life? Please give a clear answer. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
We advise you to return to the mufti in your area so that he can look into the matter. Whatever he deems sufficient, if Allah wills, you, the woman, and her guardian should be present with him, so that he may know what came from you and issue a ruling for you, if Allah wills. If he writes to me about it, I will look into the letter, because this is his responsibility; he is the one in charge. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good. So, you do not see that anything should be said to him in this matter, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh: No, we see that he should consult the mufti in their area, and there is blessing in that, if Allah wills. If the mufti sees that he should write to me or to someone else among the scholars, that is up to him if the matter is difficult for him. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah bless you.
