Remarrying Conditions (In Quran & Hadith):
Allah SWT Said! In Surah Al-Baqarah 230
Sahih Bukhari Book Divorce Hadith No. 187 & Hadith No. 190
Two divorces followed by reunion are permissible; the third time the divorce becomes irrevocable until the woman marries some other man and he divorces her. This is to set an almost impossible condition. The lesson is: if a man loves a woman, he should not allow a sudden gust of temper or anger to induce him to take hasty action. What happens after two divorces, if the man takes her back. If the man takes back his wife after two divorces, he must do so only on equitable terms i.e. he must not put pressure on the woman to prejudice her rights in any way, and they must live clean and honourable lives, respecting each other’s personalities. There are here two conditional clauses: (1) when ye divorce women, and (2) when they fulfil their ‘Iddat’: followed by two consequential clauses: (3) take them back on equitable terms, or (4) set them free with kindness.
The first is connected with the third, and the second with the fourth. Therefore if the husband wishes to resume the marital relations he need not to wait “Iddat”. But if he does not so wish, she is free to marry someone else after “Iddat”.
**Sahih Muslim Book of Marriage (Kitab Al-Nikah) Hadit No. 3359 **
[INDENT]**'A’Asha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: A person divorced his wife by three pronouncements; then another person married her and he also divorced her without having sexual intercourse with her. Then the first husband of her intended to remarry her. It was about such a case that Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) was asked, whereupon he said: No, until the second one has tasted her sweetness as the first one had tasted. **

**Malik’s Muwatta book Divorce Hadit No. 29.22.68 **
[INDENT]**Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard Ibn Shihab say, “The woman who is absolutely divorced does not leave her house until she is free to remarry. She has no maintenance unless she is pregnant. In that circumstance the husband spends on her until she gives birth.” Malik said, “This is what is done among us.” **

Duration of Iddat (In Quran & Hadith):
Allah SWT Said! In Surah Al-Baqarah 228
**Sahih Bukhari Book wedlcok, Marriage (Nikaah) **Hadit No. 63
Islam tries to maintain the married state as far as possible, especially where children are concerned, but it is against the restriction of the liberty of men and women in such vitally important matters as love and family life. It will check hasty action as far as possible and leave the door to reconciliation open at many stages. Even after divorce a suggestion of reconciliation is made subject to certain precaustions (mentioned in the following verses) against thoughtles action. A period of waiting (Iddat) for three monthly courses in prescribed, in order to see if the marriage conditionally dissolved is likely to result in issue. But this is not necessary where the divorced women is a virgin. It is definitely declared that women and men shall have similar rights against each other.
The differences is economic position between the sexes makes the man’s rights and liabilities a little greater than the woman’s (Surah Al Nisa verses 34) refers to the duty of the man to maintain the woman, and to a certain difference in nature between the sexes. Subject to this, the sexes are on terms of equality in law, and in certain matters the weaker sex is entitled to special protection.
