Talaaq situation

Question

My husband gave me a talaaq a few years ago. He sent me to live in Pakistan and gave me a conditional talaaq notice of 2 remaining talaaqs via email that if I come back to UK to him they will become valid. Is there any way I can go back to UK but still the talaaqs will not be valid or if they become valid if I go back to UK without his permission, do I need to do something about it while I stay back in Pakistan? Please help in the light of your knowledge.

Answer

Wait for your iddat period to terminate, thereafter you can return to UK (in the state that you are not married) and thereafter perform a new nikaah with a separate mahr if your ex-husband wishes to reconcile.

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