LessonsLegal Meanings of Bal, Lakin and AwQuiz

«هَذِهِ طَالِقٌ أَوْ هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ»
“This woman is divorced, or this woman and this woman.”

The wording contains both aw and waaw, so their functions must be distinguished. The source examines the position of the third woman and the selection between the first two under this construction.

A conjunction that joins items is not the same as a particle presenting alternatives. It would be incorrect to treat all three women simply as three interchangeable options; the effect of the joined expression and the speaker's clarification must be analyzed separately.
