The answer

Your husband does not have the right to stipulate, as a condition for your return, that you relinquish any part of your mahr (dowry) or your rights. His statement that he will issue the triple divorce at the first mistake is merely a promise, and divorce does not occur by it. We advise reconciliation and the intervention of wise family members to reunite the family and establish future understanding, especially since only one (divorce pronouncement) remains.
