Quote:Bismillah:
Salam Sister,
This rules can be used only if they divorced <b>three times in the couple's lifetime</b>. The third divorce falls in the third category of divorce which is called "major separation", because they cannot go back to one another, till after the wife ‘happens’ to marry someone else, then ‘happens’ to get divorced by him. In this case, she can go back to her first husband. Such a tough rule was made as <b>a punishment and a way of preventing people from misusing this tolerant ruling of permitting divorce</b>. The word ‘happens’ is parenthesized because the woman's new marriage and divorce should come naturally without planning, <b>as many people might do to legalize her return to the first husband! </b>
and God knows best.
Salam
Wael.
Bismilah
Asalamalaikum
May Allah reward you Brother for clearing this up for me. Two people will marry each other soon (again) because of your help. This means so much to me.
They are both my friends and they love each other so much (They would've married long ago, but someone told them that they can't unless the sister marries someone else and gets divorced by him.
May Allah reward you in this world and the next. Ameen
