The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.

Please explain what talaaq-e-baain is and what are its implications. Is halalah neccessary for couple to reconcile even after three menstrual cycles. Kindly clarify.

Answer

1) There are 3 types of talaqs. One is that talaq, when it occurs, it totally terminates the nikah, thereafter it is not permissible for the couple to live together. If they wish to reunite, then it is necessary to redo the nikah. This type of Talaaq is known as Talaaq-e-baain. [sharh-ul-bidayah p.-165] [qudoori page 148, 144]

2) If three talaaqs were issued then halaalah is necessary. If one or two Talaaqs were issued, then halaalah is not necessary.

Do three talaqs in one sitting count as three?

“The law of shariah is that once the husband issues three divorces, the nikaah totally terminates and there is no way for the husband to reconcile. Both husband and wife become haraam for each other.”

What the Darul Iftas say
How does a husband take his wife back after talaaq?

“If the halaalah was pre arranged between the first husband and the person who did the halaalah (second husband), then this is not permissible and is a major sin. The hadith has explained that both people are cursed by Allah…”
