Question
Abdullah follows the Shaafi' Math-hab. His wife, Amatullah is a Hanafi. The husband issued three Talaaqs in a single statement to his wife. Are these three Talaaqs one Talaaq as some sheikhs are saying? The sheikh says that Al-Azhar has ruled that three Talaaqs given at once equal one Talaaq. Please advise.
Answer
According to all Four Math-habs, unanimously, three Talaaqs administered in whatever manner, even in a single statement, are Three Talaaqs. There is Consensus (Ijma') of the Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama'ah on this issue. Al-Azhar is a deviated, modernist, Hosni Mubaarak-inspired institution which lacks Shar'i credibility. Al-Azhar's ruling is in conflict with the Shariah. Amatullah has been finally and irrevocably divorced. There is no reconciliation possible now.
