Is the divorce effective if the wife leaves the house now, or has the oath expired and is no longer effective, and what is incumbent upon the husband for the wife to leave, and is an expiation (kaffarah) binding upon him, and what would it be, especially since the husband said: "If you leave the house, you are divorced," and he only meant that specific day?
If the husband intended, by preventing his wife from going out on a specific day, that divorce should not occur if she goes out on another day, then the intention affects the oath, specifies the general, and restricts the absolute. Both spouses must seek wisdom in resolving problems without resorting to divorce.
