Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
If your husband issued three Talaaqs in writing, the three Talaaqs are valid and considered as Talaaqe Mughallazah (permanently irrevocable divorce).[1] It is not a condition for the validity of the Talaaqs that you receive the divorce certificate/document.[2] The subsequent divorces will not be considered. The implications thereof being that the Nikaah terminated at the point when he issued the three divorces and you cannot live as husband and wife together. You should immediately separate from you husband.
Your iddat will be counted from the time your husband issued the three divorces.
If your’ll stayed together as husband and wife after that, that is a sin for which your’ll should make Tawba and repent.
Should you wish to re-marry you ex-husband, you will have to marry another person, consummate the marriage and then make a new Nikaah with your ex-husband.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
