if its said thrice, isnt it technically at 3 different time instances? :p
Exactly the point that some scholars use to validate their argument .. but some say that no there should be a gap between two uttering (I dont know the ruling of that gap) for it to be counted 2 times ..
What is this process La'aan?
Also, what are the ways a woman can ask for and get a divorce?
La'aan is some kind of oath process that they need to go through, I need to see Bukhari for that...
If woman was given the right of divorce on her Nikah Nama, then she can pretty much use it like husband can, otherwise she has to go through Khulaa. Khula is counted as one talaq only, means husband and wife can get back together with in Iddat period if they want to. After Iddat, they have to re-do the nikah, but if chose to, can go seperate way
