The Talaq of One Intoxicated

Question:

The Talaq of One Intoxicated

Answer:

Wa alaykum salam wa rahmatuLlahi wa barakatuHu,

We understand that what is intended in the question to be that a husband issues a talaq while he is intoxicated from drinking alcohol. If he issues a talaq in this state, the talaq has happened. (Nihayat al-Muhtaj v. 6, p. 424)

And Allah knows best.
