The Ruling on Conditional Divorce Tied to Prohibition

A message was sent by listener (A. H. M.) from the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. He asks and says: I told my wife, “If you go to your parents’ house without me, you are divorced.” After a period of time, circumstances forced her to go to her parents’ house with my consent, and her husband went with her and did not enter the house. What is your opinion?
Answer: As long as you went with her and gave her permission, there is no harm. ... I said: Without my permission. If you gave her permission, there is no blame on you, so praise be to Allah. However, if you did not give permission, there is a distinction in this: If you intended to effect the divorce, the divorce takes place. If you intended to threaten, warn, and prevent her, and did not intend to effect the divorce, then there is an expiation for an oath. Its ruling is the ruling of an oath; it requires an expiation for an oath. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good. He says: He told her, “Without me.”
The Shaykh: “Without me” or “without my permission”?
The presenter: “Without me,” and he went with her to the door and did not enter the house?
The Shaykh: As long as it was “without me” ... he went with her, so she did not go without you; there is no blame on him; because he went with her to the door, so there is no harm. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good and do you good.
