Nikah (Marriage) - Talaaq (Divorce) The Majlis Vol 20 No 10, p.5

A man tells his friends that he and his second wife are officially divorced.

Question

A man tells his friends that he and his second wife are officially divorced. What effect does his statement have on his marriage with his first wife?

Answer

If a man tells his friends that he and his second wife are 'officially' divorced, then it will be one Talaaq which he can still revoke and take her back before ending of the wife's iddat which is a period of three haidh. What he said about his second wife does not affect the Nikah of the first wife whatsoever.
