Answer:

 

Divorced before touching

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

If the marriage was not solemnized and you did not copulate, then the iddah period of approximately 3 months does not have to be observed and you can marry an eligible Muslim man after the divorce procedures have been completed.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 33 Surah Ahzaab verse 49:

49      O ye who believe!  When ye perform ‘Nikaah’ (marry) believing women and then divorce them before ye have touched them no period of `Iddah have ye to count in respect of them: so give them a present and set them free in a handsome manner.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is only ones. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,
