Article 178 of Jaafari Personal Status Law

English translation

The divorce formula must be pronounced in the presence of two upright male witnesses gathered in a single session. The divorce is not valid if the two witnesses are morally corrupt, nor is it valid if they are women, whether they are alone or joined by a man.
Arabic original
يجب إيقاع صيغة الطلاق بحضور شاهدین عدلين ذكرين مجتمعين في مجلس واحد، فلا يصح الطلاق لو كان الشاهدان فاسقين، ولا يصح لو كانـا مـن النساء سواء كن منفردات أو منضمات مع الرجل.
