The answer

A suspended divorce ( mu'allaq) that occurs during a period of purity (tuhr) is a sunni (lawful according to the ) and valid divorce. If the husband has intercourse after this period of purity, a revocable return (raj'a) occurs. A second divorce that occurs during a period of purity in which intercourse has taken place is an innovated (bid'i) divorce but is considered valid by the majority of scholars. Regarding the third divorce written down: If the intention behind it was divorce, it is valid and constitutes a major irrevocable divorce (baynunah kubra). Otherwise, there is a difference of opinion regarding its validity, but the more correct view is that it is valid without the need for intention if it is explicit. This applies if the husband is fully aware and acting voluntarily. However, if he divorces due to obsessive doubts (waswasah), his divorce is not valid. It is advisable to present this matter to a court or to trustworthy scholars.
