Talaaq

Q: I am a mental patient and I have a lot waswasas in each activity. Every minute and second I have a lot of thoughts and what I think is repeated by me orally. I am very worried about this problem and this problem has been for 3 years. When I study I repeat one word many times and I cannot control it. Then to avoid these thinking I said to myself that if I think, my wife will be divorced on me. But I cannot stop thinking and in my mind the same thinking takes place. I say to myself to repeat the word "I have not given divorce to my wife". Now I have this waswasas in my mind that I divorced my wife. I am very sad about this problem. Please Mufti sahib give me a solution for this.

Q: I would like to know that since my husband uttered once and after that event we were together at least two times under the same roof, then we had an argument and we have been apart for 3 months. Does us being together after that talaaq incident void that talaaq or the husband has to say clearly to void the talaaq? Or since we had another argument after the talaaq and after being together twice after that, does the iddat apply and is another nikaah necessary?

Q: I got married three months ago to a boy few days after nikaah. He went back home as his parents didn't know he was married and he told me he will be back before the school opens. Ever since then we started fighting. I landed up in ICU two weeks after our nikaah. I was then sedated for 2 weeks after wards whereas my mind set was altered  and a lot of things wasn't remembered and I remained in hospital for six weeks until discharge. Few days after I landed in ICU I was apparently fighting with my husband via sms, most of which I cannot recall, as my mindset was altered and apparently talaaq was given and I don't know in what manner or how it was said, or written, because my mindset was altered I was sedated everything was blurred as I was having status epilepticus so they kept me on rivatrol sedated and I was merely opening my eyes few times a day for few minutes in 4 weeks. I refute his talaaqs completely and don't accept it. He cannot prove these talaaqs as he doesn't have these messages to show me.

Q: My husband and I are going through some rocky road. I would like to know another thing, he has already uttered talaak out loud just between the two of us, and it has been three months that we have been apart (not living under the safe roof). Do we need to have make nikaah again if we decide to reconcile?

Q: If a man is being forced by gun to give 3 talaqs, I have understood from your fatwas that the talaqs will take place even though he was forced. But may the man instead act on the Shafie opinion that talaqs do not take place? Since otherwise his life will be destroyed - his wife will be haram on him, his children will grow up with divorced parents, his wife will have difficulty supporting herself etc. I know that we should generally not act on views of another madhabs, but may the man make an exception is this case (even though he would be Hanafi) since this is such a delicate situation which will affect his whole life?

Q: I would like to ask if you have given one talaaq via sms and the iddath period has passed, what must the couple do if they want to live as husband and wife again?

Q: I would like to know if talaaq given via sms is valid because I was very angry and upset and in so much of doubt and confused and I was influenced by my friend to do it and he told me to just do what he says. So being in that state of mind I was not thinking properly so I wrote "I will give you talaaq (islamic divorce) and sent it and after 2 days later he said must do the same send another sms and again 2 days later another. He didn't explain about talaaq to me and about the iddat period and the time to reconcile between each period. I got different answers because people say sms is not valid and if influenced by someone to do it then it is not valid. So I would appreciate if you could shed some light on this topic. We want to reconcile and work things out but not sure where we stand because there is a lot going on.

Q: If a woman finds out on the night off nikkah before consummation of marriage that her husband is on drugs and alcohol can she get a talaaq?

Q: My sister recently married a man whom she did not know was a alcoholic and one drugs. She did not fully consummate the marriage as she found out when she kissed him. Does she require talaaq to leave the marriage because she lived with him for a week and in a separate room and he promised to change?
