Question:
What is the legal ruling on my saying to my wife, “You are divorced,” as a joke and in laughter?
Answer:
There is no joking or laughter in divorce; a joke is treated as serious, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said. So if he says, “You are divorced,” she is divorced, even if he was joking.
