Talaaq during iddat

Question

My husband gave me divorce on 13 June 2016. It was a talaq-e-bain. Again on 18 august 2016 in anger he gave me oral divorce on the phone saying in the presence of Allah I am giving you talaaq 3 times. My question is whether this talaq is considered as my final talaq or can we both revoke our nikaah? Is it halaal or not?

Answer

If he issued the remainder talaaqs during your iddat, then the talaaqs are valid and it will not be possible for you both to reunite unless halaala takes place.

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