Divorcing a women during her menstrual period

481

Q 1: A person married a woman and they enjoyed a peaceful and loving life together. One day he was informed that she said something bad about him; (Part No. 20; Page No. 59) so he got very angry and divorced her one time in writing because she was not in the house. This took place during her menstrual period. He, then, discovered that she had not spoken badly about him. The informer wanted to separate them. Is this divorce effective?

A: If the reality is as mentioned, the divorce is not effective because it took place during the wife's menstrual period and the husband was in a rage. Also, the cause of Talaq was fabricated. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
