Is a retroactive divorce counted if the husband said to himself, "If we don't catch the six-thirty train, then you are divorced," and his wife did not hear him, and then they did not catch the train and traveled by bus? And how can she be taken back if it is counted? And are words like "Go to your mother's... goodbye, let us rest" counted as a divorce if said in a moment of anger and an inner wish for relief from her?

If the suspension of divorce was merely an internal monologue (a thought) without uttering it, then it does not take effect. However, if you uttered it in an audible voice and suspended your wife's divorce on missing the train, then the divorce has taken effect. If it has taken effect and is not yet the third divorce, you may revoke the divorce before the expiry of her 'iddah by saying: "I have taken my wife back," or by having intercourse with her. As for your statement to your wife: "Go disappear at your mother's house," and similar phrases, these are allusive expressions by which divorce does not take effect without intention. Your desire to be rid of her is not considered as long as you did not intend thereby to effect a divorce.
