Question:
He says: A question has confused me regarding divorce, and it is my question about divorcing a woman in the heart. Does it take effect if the Muslim does not pronounce it?
Answer:
Divorce does not take effect except by pronouncing it without coercion; pronouncing it without coercion. If he pronounces it, it takes effect, even if he is joking or being playful. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Three things are serious whether done in jest or in earnest: divorce, freeing a slave, and taking back a wife." Yes.
