The answer

The divorce of an angry person is valid as long as they are aware of what they are saying and have not lost their mind, because they are responsible for what they utter. Therefore, as long as the husband clearly pronounced the divorce while aware and not overwhelmed, his divorce is valid. He may reconcile with his wife before the expiration of her 'iddah, provided that this divorce does not complete the three divorces.
