The answer

A clear divorce issued by a sane person who is not overwhelmed in his mind is valid, even if he is angry, unless his mind is completely gone. Similarly, the divorce of a menstruating woman is valid according to most scholars, despite its being an innovation (bid'ah). If three divorces occur, the wife becomes unlawful for her husband until she marries another husband in a marriage of desire.
