Does a divorce pronounced over the phone during extreme anger count, knowing that it was the final pronouncement, and that the husband had consulted a scholar who issued a fatwa that it does not count due to the extreme anger?

The answer

Abuse and harm are sins that necessitate repentance and seeking forgiveness. Divorce by phone is valid, but if the husband is extremely angry and unaware of what he is saying, his divorce does not count. However, if he is aware of what he is saying, the divorce is effective. Since this is the third divorce, the wife becomes unlawful to him and will not become lawful again until she marries another man in a valid marriage and he then divorces her after consummating the marriage.
