Is a verbal divorce pronounced after an argument considered a first divorce, and what is the way to take back one's wife before the matter is decided judicially?
If this divorce is the first or second, the husband can reconcile with his wife without a new contract as long as she is within her waiting period (). However, if the waiting period has ended, reconciliation is not permissible except with a new contract. Reconciliation does not require waiting for the court to resume. Efforts should be made to achieve family stability and avoid discord and divorce pronouncements. If this divorce was not preceded by any other divorce, then it is the first divorce, unless the word "divorce" was repeated, such as saying: "You are divorced, divorced, divorced." This constitutes three divorces according to the majority of jurists, unless the intention was to emphasize the first pronouncement, in which case it would be a single divorce.
