Divorce is (revokable) two times (after pronouncement), after which (there are two ways open for husbands), either (to) keep (the wives) honourably, or part with them in a decent way. You are not allowed to take away the least of what you have given your wives, unless both of you fear that you would not be able to keep within the limits set by God. If you fear you cannot maintain the bounds fixed by God, there will be no blame on either if the woman redeems herself. Do not exceed the limits of God, for those who exceed the bounds set by God are transgressors.

فَاِنْ طَلَّقَھَا فَلَا تَحِلُّ لَہٗ مِنْۢ بَعْدُ حَتّٰي تَنْكِحَ زَوْجًا غَيْرَہٗ۝۰ۭ فَاِنْ طَلَّقَھَا فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْھِمَاۗ اَنْ يَّتَرَاجَعَاۗ اِنْ ظَنَّاۗ اَنْ يُّقِيْمَا حُدُوْدَ اؘ۝۰ۭ وَتِلْكَ حُدُوْدُ اللہِ يُبَيِّنُھَا لِقَوْمٍ يَّعْلَمُوْنَ۝۲۳۰

Ahmed Ali

If a man divorces her again (a third time), she becomes unlawful for him (and he cannot remarry her) until she has married another man. Then if he divorces her there is no harm if the two unite again if they think they will keep within the bounds set by God and made clear for those who understand.

Ahmed Ali

When you have divorced your wives, and they have reached the end of the period of waiting, then keep them honourably (by revoking the divorce), or let them go with honour, and do not detain them with the intent of harassing lest you should transgress. He who does so will wrong himself. Do not mock the decrees of God, and remember the favours God has bestowed on you, and revealed to you the Book and the Law to warn you of the consequences of doing wrong. Have fear of God, and remember, God is cognisant of everything.
