Is it said that "perhaps" (asá) from Allah is obligatory, except for His saying: "Perhaps his Lord, if he divorces you"? Because he did not divorce them?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is it said that when "perhaps" (asaa) appears in the Qur'an from Allah, it is obligatory, except in the saying of Allah the Exalted in Surat al-Tahrim
Perhaps his Lord, if he divorced youعَسَىٰ رَبُّهُ إِن طَلَّقَكُنَّ
[At-Tahrim 66:5]
, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not divorce his wives (may Allah be pleased with them)?

Answer:
This "perhaps" is restricted, because divorce is divorce, and since he did not divorce her, nothing came of it. Yes, this is restricted. Yes.
