Question

My cousin gave talaaq to his wife - he says he was not in the right state of mind, as the house had jinn affect- regardless of that what does Islam say about talaaq? If you say talaaq 3 times together, does that mean talaaaq, or if u say it 3 times together does it mean it is counted as once - please can u also email me with regards of talaaq and not being in the right state of mind when saying it?

Answer

Three divorces given in one sitting is regarded as three and final. THREE TALAAQS IN ONE SITTING: http://www.jamiat.org.za/ttalaaqs.html

And Allah Taãla Knows Best.
