Revoking the talaaq

· 11 Rabiʻ I 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My question is that if a man gives his wife her first talaaq and revokes his talaaq to his wife after two days, does the wife need to give consent that she is willing to accept him back? What happens if she does not want him back, does she continue sitting in iddat?

Answer

No.

Revoking is not subject to her consent.

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