Three Talaqs
Question
As Salam Alaikum. My husband n I been married for two years. We had a argument n I ask ok than give me Talaq he use to leave house every other month upset with me. So in that day her said Talaq Talaq twice his intention was not to finish that is why he did not say three time after two year last month he left for one month I keep begging him to come back in anger I said ok than finish it he again in anger said it twice but not third time as his intention was not to finish. Some mufty is telling him you done. It is valid Talaq passed three words n know u have words. My understanding of taster Talaq n separation each time counts once so this is our second conflict n second Talaq. Not third. Pls clarity. Jzk
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Kindly explain:
- After the two Talaqs were given, did you sit in Iddah or did he revoke the Talaqs?
- If you did meet after the two Talaqs, what was the duration in-between the Talaqs and reuniting?
