Actually the law appears to be odd on the surface...but there is deeper logic and protection in there for a woman.
In Islam divorce is frowned upon, but permissible by God.
Imagine a man who declares talaq 3 times thereby divorcing his wife. Then deciding...for whatever reasons...
I was drunk...
I was angry...
We had a fight...
Oh no the proprerty is in her name, etc..
I want her back...so he takes her back...then when the next time he's upset...he divorces her again...and again...and again.
Marriage is a very serious institution and commitment in Isalm. To break it is not a joke...and one must think a thousand times before doing so.
So yes there is a provision..that the woman if divorced by her husband...she should be let go with dignity and allowed to carry on a new life and fresh start...And not be constantly hung in limbo and yo-yo back and forth between her parents or guardians home at the will or mood of her husband.
If you look at it...this is a safeguard against abusing a woman's rights.
Resolutions between husband and wife can be made...but it needs to be done before the 3rd talaq is declared...period.
