Can Divorce be Valid without Settlement?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My cousin had some issues with his wife and his wife left him and moved to her parents. We all tried to settle the difference with them but she kept on asking for divorce. He went to court and sent her divorce papers… giving her divorce in it 3 times. Then every month the court sent her the notice for the divorce. Will the divorce be valid this way if there is no settlement between them even after 3 months?

Bismillaah

A: Yes, it will be valid.

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