The Occurrence of Divorce by Oath and Intention

The Shaykh:
Peace.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, I have two questions. The first was assigned to me by my brother from Sudan. He says: A discussion took place between him and his wife, so he swore to her with divorce. He told her, “The divorce is upon you; whatever you want will happen.” She remained silent at the time. After a period, she spoke to him and said, “At that time, I intended divorce.” Does the divorce take effect in this case? Now, the second question

The presenter:
Just a moment, the Shaykh will answer. Go ahead, Shaykh Salih.

The Shaykh:
Go ahead. My brother, the issue of divorce.

The presenter:
There is some interference, Shaykh. Okay. Perhaps you can handle it.

The Shaykh:
The sound.

The presenter:
Okay, Shaykh, they are handling it now. Cut the connection. Go ahead, Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
I say: Ask the scholars of your country about divorce; because they are more aware of the reality and your circumstances. So, ask the scholars in your country. Yes.
