Women's Issues

Q: I have had issues with my husbad for several years now. Last week on 15th July he issued me with 2 talaaqs during an argument. He said the word talaaq and then also said divorce. I asked a local mufti who advised me that it is talaaq e rujoo and that I am in iddah until my husband and I reconcile. I was advised that we should reconcile in front of 2 witnesses, because we've had issues for some time. I said that I wanted to put some conditins to my husband and if he agreed then we could move forward. Mufti sahib said that as long as the conditions were within the shariah hudood it was fine. Unfortunately my husband is not willing to compromise, hence I am still at my parents in the state of Iddah. I am praying we will reconcile within the time limit of 3 haiz, but currently I am in the state of Iddah.
