I have given the right of divorce to my wife at the time of Nikkah.
Question
I have given the right of divorce to my wife at the time of Nikkah. One day we were having a fight and she said
"I dont want to live with you and I divorce you...i divorce you....i divorce you...."
is our nikkah is over? if yes what is there any procedure to be togetther again?
Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Kindly clarify whether the right of Talaaq given to your wife was restricted (to the time of nikah only) or was it unrestricted (i.e. she was given the right of Talaaq throughout the duration of the nikah). If a written document is available, kindly forward it to us for our study.
