Answer:
In the Name of Allaah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salaamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullaahi wa-barakaatuh.
We take note of the details of your query. We understand that A. Shafi told his wife, Saleha, that if she speaks to Shaheen, then three talaaqs will occur. Saleha upheld that and refrained from speaking to her for 10 years. However, recently, she ended up accidentally speaking to Shaheen, assuming her to be someone else.
At the outset, we wish to point out that the husband issuing such a conditional divorce 10 years ago was foolish. The words of divorce are sensitive and consequential. One was enough. There was no need for three. Nevertheless, in the enquired situation, the three talaaqs have occurred as the condition was met, i.e., speaking to Saleha. They must separate with immediate effect. Her ‘iddah has commenced from the time she spoke to Saleha.
The three talaaqs constitute a permanently irrevocable divorce (talaaq mughallazah). They cannot reconcile unless a valid halaalah is found.
And Allaah Ta’aala knows best.
