Assalamu alaikum

Someone asked about divorce to say that do you have to use the word palak or divorce for the divorce to happen or

Can you use other terms like I'm done with you? It's over with us

That's it. I'm leaving you. I'm going and so on. It's a very interesting question

So there are terms that are nonambiguous. So if someone says I divorce you. It's clear. It's done

if someone says utalikuki or

In some instances they just use the term palak that doesn't have another meaning

So if it is directed at one's spouse then yes, the talak would be considered valid

But if it is not directed at a spouse for example, you're teaching or you're talking about something and you're giving an example of something

Don't let shaytan tamper with your mind and make you think oh, I just divorced my wife. Oh, I just did this

That's the tampering of the devil. It needs to be clear. It needs to have been directed at the right person

Okay, or maybe at the wrong person. Sorry, but anyway, so

If a terminology is used that is ambiguous it has more than one meaning

I mean if I say that's it. I'm done with you

It doesn't necessarily mean that I divorce someone if I say I don't want to live with you ever, you know

I don't want to live with you ever. I haven't said that I've divorced you

It's just a feeling that I'm communicating with you about it about but I don't want to live with you forever

But I'm going to live with you

How's that? So it doesn't necessarily mean you have to go back to the intention of the person and say did you mean

Divorce completely and if they say no take that word

Hamdulillah
