Answer
Based on official Jordanian legal texts
Revocable talaq (talaq rajʿi) under Jordanian law is a divorce in which the husband retains the right to take his wife back during the ʿidda without a new contract or dowry. Article 91 makes it the default form of divorce: every talaq is revocable except those excluded, such as one completing the third divorce, occurring before consummation, made for consideration, or expressly stated to be irrevocable.
Article 92 provides that revocable talaq does not end the marriage immediately and that the husband may take his wife back during the ʿidda. Article 98 confirms that this right is firmly established, cannot be waived away, does not depend on the wife's consent, and requires no new dowry.
Important effects follow: the marriage subsists in law, the wife remains in the marital home with maintenance and housing, and the spouses inherit from one another if one dies during the ʿidda. If the ʿidda expires without a return, the talaq becomes minor irrevocable under Article 99, after which the wife may return only through a new contract and dowry.
A valid return must use explicit wording and be officially registered under Article 97 to take effect and to safeguard the parties' rights.
This is a general explanation based on Jordanian Personal Status Law and does not replace advice from a qualified lawyer in a specific dispute.
