Does a divorce issued by the husband while he was in a state of anger take effect, considering he returned his wife to their home after 10 hours?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
First: The divorce of an angry person does not take effect if the anger is so severe that he loses consciousness, which is a rare case. However, if the angry person is aware of what he is saying, then his divorce is valid.
Second: It is permissible to take back one's wife if this divorce does not complete the three divorces.
Third: Divorce is subject to the five legal rulings (obligatory, recommended, permissible, disliked, forbidden).
