Answer

(Fatwa: 296/248/D=1431)

If one gave one talaq verbally, though due to pressure from someone, it will take place. If he used the word of ?talaq?, it will be considered revocable Talaq (raj?i) i.e. the husband can take her back within iddah period, but once the iddah is over, he has to perform a new Nikah.
