Your husband can always change his mind during the iddat period and take back his talaq, after which, you will be a married couple again.

It is necessary that women must stay in home during iddat time after divorce?
I was already in my periods when I got my divorce so for how long should I stay in iddah
Three months from the date your husband says the word ‘talaq’.

Divorce do not happen during periods.
December 24, 2023
doesnt mesn anything whilst your on your periods because it wont count, so not divorced & doesnt count as one.
Aslm if a husband talaq his wife and he only gives 1 must she soma goes into iddat
September 21, 2022
Yes, because talaq is threat to wife and as well as regret for husband, in case of pronounced only one or two, that if again any dispute or quarrel arises between couple, so he could repeat again and dissolve the marriage. And during that iddat period wife and husband cannot stay together.

Period ki timing Par talaaq accept nhi hoti hai ….. Purity ke time pr hi hoti h bs
My husband gave me talakay slassa I completed my iddat after one notice he traped me that he said 2nd 3rd notice will give u but after talaky slasa one notice is enough now I got my divorce dgree my question is now I have been repeated my iddat

If you have been subjected to Talaq-e-biddat, you can approach Court for valid form of divorce as talaq-e-biddat was banned in India, so your husband can’t give you divorce in such a way as it would considered void. You may opt for other forms of divorce which are valid. Regarding the issue of iddat, as your divorce is not valid so there is no need to observe such iddat period.

Salaam. I was told by a Sheik that when Aman gave wife her 3rd talaq and u used her during her iddah period then the talaq is nul envoid. Which means you are still regarded as married.How true is this. Only if she carry out her iddah then only you are completely divorce which is irricoverally
मेरी पत्नी ने तलाक-अ- खुला के जरिए से मुझसे तलाक के पेपर पर साइन करवा दिये । जिसमे मैने एक बार बोलकर भी तलाक दे दी। और वो इद्दत मे बैठ गई। क्या एक तलाक की बिना पर तीन माह के बाद भी पत्नी को वापसी ला सकते

Assalamualaikum…my sister was staying away from her husband for more than a year due to personal issues and now he s going to give her talaq ..is it compulsory for her to be in iddat after talaq…since there is no possibility of pregnancy
For a talaq to be valid, two conditions must be proven:
firstly, there must be a reasonable cause for the divorce, and
secondly, attempts at reconciliation must precede the pronouncement of Talaq. Under the Muslim Personal law, it is compulsary for a divorced woman to observe iddat after talaq. For a woman who is not pregnant, the iddat period is three months. Please note that iddat is only compulsary if the marriage has been consumated.
Im confused I was pregnancy jub mere husband na divorce de 1 dafa but I asked from ahle sunni they said divorce nhn hoe or due medical issues hum physical b nhn hoe
Salam, if a husband divorces on last talaq. For example, I only have 1 talaq left and he divorces me with that, do I still need to observe iddah? Even though we cannot get back together anyway ?
Maine apni biwi ko talaq de di ha 3 baar but mujhe lagata ha mujhe uske sath rahna ha to kya karna chahiye
I am a working professional, so how will I deal with iddah for 3months,is there any other way to deal with it
September 2, 2024
in Islamic law, iddah is a waiting period for women after divorce or the death of a spouse. It is often expected that the woman should not be leaving the house during this time. For working professionals, this can present challenges.
In India, the legal situation for working women observing iddah is complex. There’s no specific law addressing the iddah is complex. There’s no specific law addressing this issue, but several constitutional principles apply.
Therefore, any legal approach would likely focus on finding a balance between religious obligations and professional responsibilities, rather than challenging the practice of iddah itself .
Given this legal landscape, the most pragmatic approach may be to seek workplace accommodations. However, if faced with discrimination due to observing iddah, one could potentially seek legal recourse based on the right to religious freedom and the right to work.

Assalamu alaikum.I have been divorced by my husband after 9 months of marriage but we have never had sexual intercourse and I was at my parents house for 3 months that is 6 months after our marriage he sent me home but pronounced the divorce after I completed 3 the months in my parents house. I started my menstrual period on the day of the divorce. So now I have observed 3 menstrual periods but remaining few days to complete the 3 months of the idda. My question is that do I supposed to perform the Idda since nothing has happened between us and if Yes is my idda complete since I observed the 3 menstrual period even though I didn’t complete the exact 3 months. Thank you

I got khula , how long idat time period will be ?

If I give my wife a talaq and then break it during the idah period does it still count as a talaq?
If you issue a talaq to your wife and then decide to revoke it during the iddah period, and the revocation meets the conditions outlined in Islamic law for revoking a talaq during iddah, then the initial talaq would be considered nullified, and the marriage would continue without a divorce taking effect. He may take her back verbally, such as saying, “I take you back” or “I have kept you”; or it may be done by an action with the intention to take her back. If he has intercourse with her with the intention of taking her back, that also counts as taking her back.

I don’t know from where you guys bring Islam interpretations. I would say half knowledge is dangerous. All ihadees mentioned and Quran clearly mentioned about three female cycles not of three months. So if female is not menstruating than three lunar months. If preganat than wait till delivery and three mentstrul cycles.
I couldn’t understand why people give answers when they don’t know about Islam. For example. If some one divorce her wife in her current periods time. After a day or two or week her menses started than she would wait for another two periods. How could you fit three months here in this example. A woman can have cycle of 21days to 28 days or sometimes of 35days or more. How could you fit 3months there in her example. So please learn quran and Islam and don’t write or give answers blantly. Understand what Islam said.

भारतीय कानून के अनुसार, तलाक के बाद ‘इद्दत’ अवधि का पालन न करना कानूनी प्रभावों का हो सकता है, खासकर उन मामलों में जहां ऐसा पर्सनललॉ के द्वारा निर्धारित होता है जैसे मुस्लिम पर्सनल लॉ. हालांकि, प्रत्येक स्थिति और आपके संबंध में लागू कानूनी प्रावधानों के अनुसार प्रतिक्रियाएँभिन्न हो सकती हैं।
कानूनी परिणाम: ‘इद्दत’ अवधि का पालन न करने का कोई एकमात्र अपराध नहीं हो सकता है, लेकिन यह कानूनी प्रक्रियाओं में प्रतिकूल हो सकता है, खासकर जब यह आपकी संदिग्धता में होता है, जैसे की नियमित कोर्टीय प्रक्रियाओं में इसकी चर्चा होती है। आपके पति या उनके परिवार सदस्यकानूनी प्रक्रिया के दौरान इस मुद्दे को उठा सकते हैं।
सामाजिक परिणाम: कानूनी परिणामों के अलावा, इसके अस्तित्व के कारण आपकी समुदाय या परिवार में सामाजिक परिणाम हो सकते हैं। इसमेंअलगाव या तनावपूर्ण संबंध शामिल हो सकते हैं।
संभावित उपाय: यदि आप कानूनी समस्याओं का सामना कर रहे हैं या भविष्य में इसे आंकित कर रहे हैं, तो कानूनी सलाह लेना उत्तम होगा।पारिवारिक या व्यक्तिगत कानून में विशेषज्ञ वकील आपको इस स्थिति का सामना कैसे करना है और किस प्रकार के कानूनी दायरों में आपकीअधिकार और कर्तव्य को समझने में मदद कर सकते हैं।
संदर्भ की स्थिति का विचार: न्यायालय आपके ‘इद्दत’ अवधि का पालन न करने के पीछे के कारणों को भी महत्वपूर्ण मान सकता है, जैसे कि परिवारीयदबाव या आपकी सुरक्षा का भय। हालांकि, अपने परिस्थितियों के पीछे जो भी कारण हैं, उनके बारे में पारदर्शिता बनाए रखना और कानूनी प्रक्रियाओंके साथ सहयोग करना अत्यंत आवश्यक है।
सहारा ढूंढें: यदि आप इस स्थिति के कारण परिवार या समुदाय में चुनौतियों का सामना कर रहे हैं, तो विश्वसनीय व्यक्तियों, समुदाय के नेता या समर्थनसमूहों से सहारा लें जो मार्गदर्शन और सहायता प्रदान कर सकते हैं।
अंत में, इस स्थिति का सामना ईमानदारी से करना और कानूनी सलाह लेना महत्वपूर्ण है ताकि आपको कानून के तहत आपके अधिकार और कर्तव्योंको समझने में मदद मिल सके। कानूनी या सामाजिक मुद्दों से उत्पन्न होने वाले किसी भी नकारात्मक परिणामों को कम करने के लिए कार्रवाई करनामहत्वपूर्ण है।

I love a married woman.her husband has died.We decided to get marry after his husband death.now she is in iddat.can I talk to her on text message in whatsapp?
1. You can talk to her on Whatsapp or any other media, the law doesn’t prohibits it, but she has to maintain chastity during the period of Iddat as per Muslim Personal Law.However a Muslim woman whose husband has died observes iddat period for four lunar months and ten days after the death of her husband.It is the period which is observed by Muslim woman to lawfully marry again. During this period, a woman cannot marry another man. It is compulsory to observe iddat period in the same house where the woman was residing permanently at the time of her husband’s death or in case of dissolution of marriage.
My husband give me 1 talaq I am 6 month pregnant it’s not first time he always talked about giving me talaq and then sleeping with me I feel so humiliated and broken from inside what should I do after one talaq. Is rajo is from both side if I don’t want to get back to him what’s my right in Islam because for him he it’s easy to say he is never feel guilty about this this is 4th time he did that always I start begging when he try to use those word but this time he completely said it his name his father name and he is giving me talaq
