    Title: My brother in law married a woman who embraced Islam to provide support to her

    Question: My brother in law married a woman who embraced Islam to provide support to her. My sister was frustrated with this step of his and forced him to give divorce to that woman. That lady was married to some other person (kafir) but did nikah with this lady. Afterwards he gave that lady talaq on phone in presence of my sister. Is that talaq valid? Now he says that he told in-sha-Allah in his mind before saying talaq 3 times and that talaq is invalid. Could you put light on conditions in which talaq remains invalid?
