What is meant by “ikhtilaf” in the hadith (There is no divorce in ikhtilaf)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The Shaykh:
There is no divorce in a state of being overwhelmed. لا طلاق في إغلاق
Sunan ad-Daraqutni 16:86
O Shaykh, what is its meaning? What is ikhtilaf here, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : Ikhtilaf here.

The Shaykh : O Shaykh, may Allah guide you, I am asking you: is ikhtilaf like the one who drinks intoxicants?
The student : No, regardless of this issue.

The Shaykh : It is not possible to look away from this issue; branches stem from it. “Does the shadow stand straight while the stick is crooked?” If you do not distinguish between what a person did with his own hand and what was imposed on him by another, and you equate the two, then the error is from the very beginning. So, as for the one who became angry, do you say that he angered himself?
The student : No, he did not become angry.

The Shaykh : So, it is not [his fault].
