🚪 Perceraian, idah & rujuk · #15

The husband is unsure whether he has pronounced talaq two or three times. What now?

When in doubt about the number of talaq, the fiqh rule is to hold to the number that is certain, namely the smaller one.
The maxim "certainty is not removed by doubt" applies: if in doubt between two and three, it counts as two. However, scholars advise caution (wara') because this concerns whether the relationship is lawful or forbidden.
In Malaysia, court and religious affairs office records are the main reference. If any talaq was never confirmed, apply for confirmation now so the number is clear. Do not go on living together in doubt without consulting the Syariah Court or the mufti. See talaq & divorce.
