Talaaq

Giving two talaaqs over the phone

Q: I got married (only nikkah) 9 years ago (rukhsati and proper marriage function was done after 4 years). Me and my wife had some strong arguments over some thing after nikaah and I got hyper and to scare my wife I gave her 2 talaaqs like this I give you divorce, I give you divorce over a telephonic discussion and after the 2nd time I uttered the word of divorce she disconnected the phone. And that's what I wanted.

1. Before uttering the word divorce I kept quite and prayed to Allah Almighty that " Ya Allah I am not going to give my wife divorce and you are the only witness to this thought that I don't mean it. Actually this word which I am going to speak doesn't mean anything please accept my apology". Then after thinking this I spoke to my wife the word of divorce and by speaking the word I started speaking the word in my mind that I am not giving my wife divorce. After she disconnected the phone I called her back after some time like after an hour and apologised to her in a way "I am sorry please listen carefully I haven't given you divorce because I promised Allah that I am not giving divorce and uttered divorce so there is no divorce. Thats what happened 5 years ago I guess. Now one day I heard and came to know my divorced took place.

2.Tell me weather my divorced happened or not? If it happened then what I have to do now? 

3. If my divorced happened, then I think after 2 talaaqs I could take my wife back. Was the way I mentioned to take back correct or do I have to remarry her again. One important thing I need to mention here although after nikaah we had no sexual relationship but we were together alone in room a lot of time but we opted not to have sex because we had social fear of having a baby before rukhsati. Please advise. 

Does signing legal divorce documents constitute talaaq

Q: I am a married woman. I was involved with a married man when I was still staying with my husband. I committed zina with him. Me and my husband are separated for 1 year 8 months now. My husband sent me a signed legal document for divorce in which I also signed and accepted the divorce. Our case was called 4 months back and that was when we were legally divorced in the family court. We are no more in contact with each other. Just yesterday my mum called my husband to give me talaaq, but he didn't say anything about it. He didn't say that he is giving me talaaq. I have also asked him several times to give me talaaq but he doesn't. in this situation can I perform nikah again with whom I want to marry? I have heard that there is no iddat period after committing zina. Please tell me if iddat period is farz on me? and for how long?

Women applying for divorce

Q: A woman whose husband leaves her for 1 year 8 months with no contact and applies for a legal divorce and signs documents for separation and the magistrate dissolves their marriage in the family court. Now its 4 months from the divorce date. Can the woman make nikah again?

Talaaq situation

Q: My husband gave me a talaaq a few years ago. He sent me to live in Pakistan and gave me a conditional talaaq notice of 2 remaining talaaqs via email that if I come back to UK to him they will become valid. Is there any way I can go back to UK but still the talaaqs will not be valid or if they become valid if I go back to UK without his permission, do I need to do something about it while I stay back in Pakistan? Please help in the light of your knowledge.

Revoking the talaaq after the second divorce

Q: I follow the hanafi madhab. I divorced my wife one time and then I went back to her by just uttering the words I take you back as my wife then I divorced her a second time after a few days and then I went back to her by just uttering words I take you back and accept you as my wife. Recently a friend of mine told me that I can't do that. After the second time I must have an imam and witnesses and marry her again the way I first married her. I am worried now. I have already divorced her for the third time now but I am concerned that when I became intimate with her after the second divorce did I fall in sin?

Reconciling after talaaq-e-baain

Q: I e-mailed you about the problems between my husband and myself, and you replied and said if my husband used the word of "Leave the house" then he will not be halaal for his wife and this will be talaaq-e-baain. My question is if they both want to ruju again what should they do according to the Islamic point of view please help me.

Husband telling the wife to leave the home and never come back

Q: If the husband tells his wife after 2 years of their marriage that he doesn't love her he doesn't feel anything for her anymore after every little argument, and also he doesn't fulfil her huqooq and taunt her all the time, if wife is quite everything is fine but if the wife ever says anything to him about his attitude towards her than they have a fight and he tells his wife to leave the house and never come back. He also threatens the wife that he will re marry to someone else. In this situation what should the wife do in Islam point of view. Please help.
