Three talaaqs

Q: The problem is that 10 years ago I divorced my wife twice and 18 months ago I divorced one time and on May 16, 2023 I divorced three times. Now my wife and me are separated from each other. So I want to ask that divorce happen to me or not?

A: From the time you issued the third divorce, your nikaah had terminated and you both were living together in a haraam relationship. You both should immediately separate and make sincere taubah for living in haraam all this while. After the third divorce was issued, if your wife experienced three monthly cycles (if she was not pregnant), then her iddat has also terminated.

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