Urging against playing with the words of divorce and frequent swearing by it

Question:
He says: Swearing by divorce is a common thing among us. Married and unmarried men do it, and they do it for the weakest of reasons, and none of them means what they say, to the point that it has become a habit on the tongue without intention. Does the divorce take effect in this case, or is it considered idle talk? Please inform us. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
It is obligatory not to play with divorce, and it is not befitting for a believer to play with divorce. If something happens to a person, he should ask the people of knowledge about what happened to him: the mufti, or the judge of the personal status court, or the scholars known for knowledge and virtue. He should ask them about what happened to him, because these matters vary according to the reality of the situation. So, whoever has something of this happen to him should ask the people of knowledge: the mufti of the country, or its judge, the scholar who adjudicates between people in personal status matters, or the scholar well-known in their country. He should ask him about what happened to him, and he will issue a ruling for him based on what he knows from the pure Shari'ah.
