Question

What proof is there from the Quran and Hadith with regards to issuing 3 Talaaqs?

Answer

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

If a person issues his wife three divorces in one sitting or three divorces in separate sittings, that will constitute three divorces which will terminate the marriage irrevocably (talaq-e-mughallazah). It is interesting to note that this is also the view of Imam Bukhari Rahimahullah. You may refer to our research on the issue on the following link.

Ask AskImam

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
