What is the remedy for the obsessive doubts and uncertainty regarding the occurrence of divorce, resulting from the husband's statement "How could it have occurred when he didn't say 'You are divorced' to me?" when he was asked about his previous statement "He will divorce me"?

The husband's statement, "I will divorce you," is not considered a divorce; rather, it is a promise to divorce, and no effects of divorce are incurred by it. The wife remains under her husband's marital bond. One must turn their heart away from such thoughts and not dwell on obsessive whispers.
