Does a divorce take place with the words "you are hereby divorced" when angry, if there was no intention of divorce?
Divorce occurs through an explicit utterance or a veiled expression combined with intention. If you did not intend to effect a divorce by saying to your wife, "If there is no trust between us, then your divorce is certain," then no divorce has occurred, because this phrasing allows for the interpretation of a promise of divorce. As for your statement to her, "You have a divorce in you," its meaning is unclear, and we request clarification of it in order to provide an answer.
