Q: My daughter accepted a proposal and the boys parents asked for the Nikah to be done. My Daughter accepted as it was the correct thing to do. She never moved to her marital home . As she never been with any men or involved in any relationships, the two brief visits with her husband was a bit uncomfortable. She felt awkward if he held her hand etc. This was the first time ever alone with a male in a relationship. She was very anxious and nervous. The Husband gave her talaaq as he felt she was meant to be in love with him when she agreed to the Nikaah. The Mother has sent back all the gifts we gave him and ashurah gifts we sent them. They also feel that there is no iddat. The talaaq was sent by sms. The Boys parents didn't want to wait or try. My daughter started her iddat. The marriage was not consummated.

If I divorce my wife while she is pregnant and the baby dies in her stomach but she is not aware of this is she still in iddat until the doctors deliver the baby even though the baby has died or does her iddat end the day the baby dies in her stomach even though shes was not aware and the baby is still inside her?
