What is the ruling on the marital relationship between parents in which the husband has repeatedly uttered the word of divorce, including triple divorces? Is it obligatory to inform them of the past divorces, along with the potential harm and family disintegration that may result? Are the children sinful if they do not inform their parents of this? Are the parents excused by ignorance?

We cannot rule on your parents' marital relationship, as these matters require direct consultation with scholars. You must alert your father to the seriousness of uttering divorce and urge him to consult trustworthy scholars, for the implications of divorce are grave and can lead to prohibition (of marriage) and loss of inheritance. Your father's ignorance of the consequences of his divorce does not absolve him of responsibility.
