The question

Is repeating the words of a song that include the phrase "عليَّ الحرام من ديني" (By my religion, it is unlawful for me) before and after marriage, without the intention of swearing an oath or knowledge of the jurisprudential implications of these words, subject to expiation or does it entail any legal consequence, especially after learning that it may be an كناية (allusion) to divorce or zihar (a pre-Islamic form of divorce)?

The answer

No divorce or prohibition results from repeating song lyrics with the intention of narration and reporting, not with the intention of creating a legal effect. However, one should avoid repeating such bad songs. Also, one must be careful not to indulge in obsessive thoughts and seek Allah's help by frequently supplicating to get rid of them.
