Question

I was once married for 10 years and my husband and I got divorced. After getting divorced I met someone who promised to marry me and even had a baby, however he did not marry me or support his child. Is it permissable for me to marry my first husband again now?

Answer

If it was just one divorce issued by the husband you may remarry him.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
