My husband did the triple talaaq in one go. He tried to back track by claiming that it didn't count, and we were still married, and that each talaaq had to come at a different time period, but I contacted the local Imam at our mosque, who said we were extremely divorced with no going back for him at all. At least not until I remarried, had sex, and then divorced.
The Imam said that doing 3 at once is so hated, the recommendation is to wait between each one, but when you go all out in rage and do 3 for 1, then the punishment needs to stand...that being that the husband loses the wife.
I am perfectly fine to believe this version, rather than the 1, time period, 2, time period, and then 3, possible freedom.
I was so happy. One of those happy life changing moments lol.
