Q: My husband divorced me a second time and as I asked him that this is your last attempt, If you divorce me a third time, it will be done. But he says that when I divorced you first time and made rajoo to you within the idaah period, it is finished. My question is that how many attempts can a husband make for divorce to his wife even if he reconciles and if he reconciles within the iddah period, does his attempt of divorce finish and not count next time?
Q: I was a widow with three boys remarried due to financial problems. This man feeds well but he lies like anything. Hundred times he committed that he'll not lie and I am very much opposite to him. He won't give me anything in my hand and the rest of my money is also with him. He lies saying he took a property, but when I ask him to return my money he dodges. I am sick of his lies.
