The answer

The statement that if a husband takes money from his children, his wife becomes unlawful to him, is considered a divorce if he intended divorce, a Zihar if he intended Zihar, and an oath if he intended an oath or did not intend anything specific. Divorce during menstruation is valid, and divorce pronounced in anger is effective unless one completely loses their sanity. If the wife is certain that a triple divorce has occurred, it is not permissible for her to remain with the divorced husband, and she must separate from him, even through khul‘. It is not permissible for her to remain in his house in a way that involves khalwah (private seclusion), but she may stay in a separate part of the house with its own facilities, without khalwah or intermingling.
