Should a wife whose husband pronounced a triple divorce observe `Iddah for three menstrual periods or only one?
Q 1:
A man pronounced a triple divorce, should his wife wait three menstrual periods or only one?
A: His divorced wife has to observe three menstrual periods, and it is not enough to observe only one, because of the generality of His Statement (Exalted be He):
And divorced women shall wait (as regards their marriage) for three menstrual periods
May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet, his family and Companions.
