The answer

A divorce occurs with the utterance "I divorce my wife" as a single divorce. If the second utterance is intended to confirm the first, it is considered a single divorce, provided there is no long time interval between them; otherwise, they are two divorces. Divorce occurs despite anger if the divorcer is aware of what he is saying. If the divorce is merely by the word "divorced" (ṭāliq) and he did not intend to attribute it to his wife, then nothing occurs. The husband can take back his wife as long as she is within the waiting period (ʿiddah) of a revocable divorce. However, after the waiting period expires, it is not permissible for him to take her back except with a new marriage contract. This is assuming that this divorce is not the third one. If it is the third, she is not permissible for him until she marries another husband.
