Is My Sister Divorced?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My sister received messages from her husband (You are divorced, You are divorced, You are divorced). I would like to request you please guide, is she divorced or what?

Bismillaah

A: The divorce is valid. Since he had issued three talaaqs via a text message, the nikaah has terminated and it is no longer permissible for them to live together.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
