Does repeating the phrase "You are divorced" three times or more constitute a revocable divorce that permits reconciliation, or an irrevocable divorce that does not permit the wife's return except after her marriage to another man?
The husband's repetition of the phrase "You are divorced" three times may result in a triple divorce or a single revocable divorce, depending on details you can review in the mentioned fatwas. If a triple divorce occurs, the woman is not permissible for her husband until she marries another man and he divorces her. However, if it was a single divorce, it is revocable, and the husband can take his wife back during her 'iddah (waiting period). Both spouses should maintain good relations and understanding. The husband should avoid uttering divorce, and the wife should not request divorce unless there is a legitimate religious reason. A Muslim should ask scholars when necessary to learn the religious ruling, especially if they are unlearned, so they should not rely solely on books.
