Does a divorce that occurred twice, one of which was during menstruation, under the wife's threat to throw herself from the window, count?

Threatening to throw herself from the window if her husband does not divorce her is considered legitimate duress if it is highly probable that she intends to carry out the act. In this case, the husband is not bound by any divorces that occur due to this duress. Divorce during menstruation, despite being an innovation (bid'ah), is considered valid by the majority of jurists.
