The Ruling on Divorce in a State of Anger

This is a question from the questioner (M. A. M.) from the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen, who says: I am a married man, and one day a quarrel occurred between me and my wife, which led to me losing my composure. I said to her: If you go to your parents' house, you are divorced. Do not sleep with me tonight. So she went to her parents' house. When night came, I realized that I had been wrong in my treatment of her, so she slept with me. What is the solution?
The Shaykh: Repeat, repeat.
He says: A quarrel occurred between me and my wife, which led to me losing my composure due to anger. I said to her: If you go to your parents' house, you are divorced. Do not sleep with me tonight. So she went to her parents' house. When night came, I realized that I had been wrong in my treatment of her, so I brought her back and she slept with me?
Answer: If your composure was altered by intense anger, then nothing takes place by that. However, if your composure was intact and your mind was with you, and your intention was to prevent her from going to her parents' house, then you owe an oath expiation, and that is sufficient. You must perform the oath expiation if you did not intend to effect the divorce, but rather intended to prevent her from going to her parents' house and from staying the night with you. In that case, you owe only the oath expiation, and that is sufficient, because its ruling is the ruling of an oath. But if you intended to effect the divorce if she went, and your composure was intact, then one divorce takes place upon her by that. There is no harm in taking her back if she has not previously been divorced twice. Yes.
