Specifically, there are three key points about “can you give divorce over the phone in Islam?” which I will explain in this article. The three important things I mean are as follows:

Does Divorce Need Witnesses in Islam?

The first important thing about “can you give divorce over the phone in Islam?” What I will explain now is "does divorce need witnesses in Islam?". I want you to understand that first before you read any more explanations in this article because that is one of the basic things about this topic that should be well understood.

If we read some literature on Islamic divorce law, then we will find an explanation that divorce in Islam does not require witnesses such as marriage, and the annulment of the first divorce and the second divorce. What it means is that even if no one else knows that you have divorced your wife, the divorce is valid.

That's a brief explanation of "does a divorce need a witness in Islam?". As Muslims, we must understand that.

Can You Give Divorce Over the Phone in Islam?

The second important thing about “can you give divorce over the phone in Islam?” what I'm going to explain now is a specific answer. I want you to understand that well so that you understand whether “divorce over the phone is valid or not”.

In the previous discussion, I have explained that divorce in Islam does not require witnesses. In several previous articles, I have explained two divorce rules or two conditions for divorce: that the husband who gives the divorce is a mature husband (baligh), aware that it is a divorce, and is not forced (unless it is the court that enforces it); that the wife is not menstruating and not after sex.

So, if you ask me, "can you give divorce over the phone in Islam?", specifically, I'm saying that you can divorce over the phone if two divorce rules or two conditions for divorce are met.

In simple terms, I say that if you are a mature husband (baligh), aware that it is a divorce, not forced (unless the court is forcing), your wife is not menstruating, and not after sex, then "you can give divorce by telephone."

That's a brief explanation of "can you give divorce over the phone in Islam?". As Muslims, we must understand that.

How to Give Divorce Over the Phone in Islam?

The third important thing about “can you give divorce over the phone in Islam?” what I will explain now is "how to give divorce over the phone in Islam?". I want you to understand that so you understand what you have to do if you want to give a divorce over the phone.

I hope you have understood the two things I have explained before. So, if you want to “divorce over the phone”, then you have to do two things:

1. You have to make sure that the two divorce rules or the two divorce conditions are met.
2. You have to say divorce to your wife directly or indirectly.

What is meant by saying divorce directly is saying divorce sentences that can be understood directly, such as "I divorce you", "Now you are not my wife anymore, and so on.

While what is meant by saying divorce indirectly is to say an image or satire that means divorce, such as "To me, you are like my mother", "To me, you are like my sister", and so on. What is important in indirect spoken divorce is that the sentence is a sentence that is spoken to give divorce.
