Question:
He also has a final question about the hadithSunan Ibn Majah 2046Hasan (Darussalam). What does that mean, O Shaykh?
Answer:
It means that divorce does not take effect in a state of anger. "Iqlaq" means anger, and what is intended here is severe anger in which a person cannot comprehend what he is saying. As for ordinary anger in which a person can comprehend what he is saying, the divorce does take effect. The same applies to freeing a slave; if a person can comprehend what he is saying, anger does not prevent the freeing of the slave or the taking effect of the divorce. However, if the anger is overwhelming and the angry person cannot comprehend what he is saying, then the divorce does not take effect and the freeing of the slave does not take effect. Yes.
