What is the ruling on adopting the view of the majority (jumhur) permitting the suspension of divorce upon marriage to a woman, despite the differences among other jurisprudential schools of thought? Is this considered hypocrisy or eclecticism? If a person suspends divorce upon marrying a girl, can this suspension be revoked before marrying her, and what is the ruling on uttering the revocation of the suspension? What are the conditions and pillars that must be present for the suspension of divorce to be valid, and is doubt about uttering divorce due to obsessive thoughts considered as proof of it?
