The answer

The questioner erred by engaging in a forbidden relationship and must hasten to repent. The conditional divorce has occurred, and according to the majority of scholars, it counts as three divorces, contrary to Ibn Taymiyyah, who holds that it counts as one. The questioner is wrong in denying what transpired from her and must repent and separate from her husband until her iddah (waiting period) expires. Then, she may marry another man out of genuine desire, not merely to make herself lawful (for her first husband). If this second husband divorces her after consummation, she may marry her first husband again if they both wish to do so.
