I have a friend whose husband gave her one talaq 5 years ago.They have 2 children and that was the only contact they had with each other.
Now, after getting to know each other again and discussing their issues of the past, they wish to reconcile.
Neither married anyone else over the 5 years they were apart. I would like to know if one talaq is sufficient and is there a time period in which the one talaq is valid.
Are they permitted to remarry after one talaq was given to the woman and them been apart for 5 years?
