Suspending the talaaq upon the wife speaking to a specific person

Q: My question is regarding divorce. My wife used to talk to a person. I told her that if she talks to that person again, our nikaah will be broken. Now I have realised that I should not have said that and want to allow her to talk without our nikaah being broken. What can be done?

A: If she speaks to that specific person regarding whom you had taken the oath, one talaaq-e-baain will take place.

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