The question

Is it permissible for a wife to be taken back with a new marriage contract and dower after she has been divorced three times, based on a fatwa that the second divorce was an irrevocable rather than a revocable one, which would render the third divorce null and void because she was not lawful for him at that time?

The answer

The fatwa given is that the return of the questioner to his wife after the second divorce is valid. Therefore, three divorces have occurred, and she is irrevocably divorced from him, meaning she is not lawful for him until she marries another man, and he consummates the marriage with her, and then he divorces her or dies, and her waiting period expires. The questioner is advised to consult the Fatwa Committee to understand the basis of their fatwa. If he feels at ease with it, he may act upon it; otherwise, he should not.
