Does a triple divorce uttered during menstruation with the words "divorce, divorce, divorce" and the intention of three (divorces) count as a triple divorce, or is it considered a single divorce based on the differing opinions of the madhhabs? And what is the interpretation of a dream about not being able to marry in the future?

If the husband has referred to the court or sought a fatwa from someone he trusts, and it was ruled that the triple divorce has occurred, then she is not lawful for him. However, if he has not sought a fatwa, the relied-upon fatwa is that divorce during menstruation does not count, and triple divorce during a period of purity counts as one. If the husband adopts this fatwa, then you both remain in your marriage. If he seeks a fatwa from someone who holds that divorce during menstruation does count, but considers triple divorce as one, then one divorce has occurred, and he may take her back as long as she is within her waiting period (iddah).
