Remarrying during the iddat period after talaaq-e-baain

· 22 Rajab 1447 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I was told that if talaq e bain takes place once between a couple, the same couple can remarry during the time of iddat? So I want to ask, is it true that the same couple can marry during the iddah period according to Hanafi fiqh?

Answer

Yes, it is permissible on condition that the talaaq one issued is the first or second talaaq. However, if the talaaq one issued is the third talaaq, then it will not be permissible for them to remarry unless halaalah takes place.

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