Question
The husband gave his wife one Talaaq before consummating the marriage. He mentioned once: 'I am giving you Talaaq.' Can they reconcile with a new Nikah?
Answer
When Talaaq is issued prior to consummation, the marriage is terminated. The effect of the one Talaaq in this case is Baa-in. The Talaaq is irrevocable. Reconciliation without a new Nikah is not permissible.
