Does a triple divorce occur if one says, "You are divorced," repeated three times with the intention of divorce, then follows it by repeating words of separation such as "I don't want you" at spaced intervals, leading to an irrevocable major divorce (baynunah kubra)? If so, what are the wife's rights?
The questioner was answered in a previous query regarding the اختلاف (disagreement) among scholars concerning the number of divorces that have occurred and the possibility of reconciliation. It can be added here that the husband's statement to his wife: "I do not want you, and I do not wish to live with you" is a kinayah (allusive expression) by which divorce occurs with the intention.
