The answer

If you were not aware of what you said due to extreme anger, then nothing is binding upon you. However, if you were aware of what you said and uttered the three divorces in a single pronouncement, then the majority of scholars hold that the three divorces are binding. If you pronounced the three divorces separately and intended one, then it is one. If you intended three, then the three are binding upon you. In the case of three divorces occurring, she becomes unlawful for you and will not become lawful again until she marries another husband. If a single divorce occurs before consummation, it is an irrevocable divorce (ba'inah), and you may renew the marriage contract with its pillars. Your wife's display of adornment (tabarruj) is a sin, and you must denounce this evil and persuade her to wear the hijab.
