Divorce is not considered valid unless it is issued by the husband, his代理, the judge, or whoever acts on his behalf. Consequently, the wife remains under her husband's authority, and it is not permissible for her to marry. However, if the Sharia judiciary issues a final divorce decree, then the divorce takes effect, and the wife is permitted to marry after her waiting period () ends.
