Q: I am married to my wife for the past 7 years and during these years of my married life I used to have heated arguments with my wife on her behavior and out of anger I have given her divorce in intervals but maximum number at a time was 2. We are still living together. Please advise if our marriage is still valid?

A: If the total number of talaaqs you had issued at different occasions reached three, then your nikaah has terminated. Hence it will no longer be permissible for you both to live together.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
