I have been married for 17 years and have four children. This particular incident occurred about six years ago in 2015 after physically abusing me, my husband said Talaaq to me three times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">I then informed my brother in law (his brother) who took me to his house and then informed me that after he had asked someone, the Talaaq was not valid and I could return to the home which I did.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">I have since had a son who is my fourth child.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">My husband has repeatedly mentally, financially, sexually and physically abused me throughout the marriage, and has just returned from Pakistan after 9 months back to the matter in hand. After I stopped communicating with him, his mother told me that he went to her home and announced that I had taken Islamic divorce from him and they should all be happy now and start &#8216;dancing&#8217;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">This matter is what brought the first divorce to my attention. I was speaking to my friend about his manner of speech regarding these matters and explained about the first time he uttered Talaaq to me three times. She then confirmed that this Talaaq was indeed a valid Talaaq.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Now the fatwa I am after is regarding the first time he said Talaaq to me three times. Is this Talaaq valid? He is refusing to acknowledge that he did this and is denying all knowledge as is his brother.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong><u>In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong><u>Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Hearing about such terrible events that you personally suffered makes us very sad. Regardless of gender, such awful things should never happen to anyone. It upsets us to read about such obscene and dreadful events, especially as a woman and a wife. The endurance of one&#8217;s patience is observed by Allah, the Almighty. Your query has been studied, and it appears that you have a legit reason of wanting a divorce or acknowledging that your husband uttered the words of divorce. Allah is the one who understands everyone&#8217;s needs the best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">He has commanded husbands to treat their wives lovingly. As Allah, may He be glorified, says:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u0648\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0627\u0634\u0650\u0631\u064f\u0648\u0647\u064f\u0646\u0651\u064e\u00a0\u0628\u0650\u0671\u0644\u0652\u0645\u064e\u0639\u0652\u0631\u064f\u0648\u0641\u0650<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">And live with them honourably, [Surah Nisaa\u2019 verse 19]<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">To be totally honest and completely direct, only; you, your husband or any other witness that might have been there at the time of when your husband uttered three Talaaqs, will only know if it had been issued or not. And obviously Allah SWT knows everything that goes on in everyone\u2019s lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">If he had definitely issued three Talaaqs knowingly and was aware of it which seems to be the case in the question, divorce has occurred.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Only Allah (\u0639\u0632 \u0648 \u062c\u0644) knows best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Written by Maulana Burhaan Rahman<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Checked and approved by Mufti Mohammed Tosir Miah<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Darul Ifta Birmingham<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fatwa ID: 07152 &nbsp; Answered by: Maulana Burhaan Rahman &nbsp; Question: &nbsp; I am hoping to get a fatwa regarding a complicated matter.
