Three talaaqs in one sitting

· 28 Dhuʻl-Hijjah 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I need the ruling with regards to 3 talaaqs, can it be issued at once or does it get issued over the period of iddah?

Answer

To issue 3 divorces in one sitting is forbidden. However, all 3 will be valid whether issued in one sitting or different sittings. The right way is to issue just one until the iddat has ended. if someone issues one talaaq in each period of tuhr (purity) it is also permissible.

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

“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.”
