The answer

An oath sworn by divorce is subject to the ruling of a conditional divorce. If the condition upon which the oath was sworn is fulfilled, divorce occurs according to the majority of jurists, even if the husband did not intend divorce. The oath is affected by intention and cause. If the removal of the name was for a specific purpose and that purpose ceased to exist, or for a reason that subsequently disappeared, and then the name was restored, then the oath is not broken. However, if the intention was to remove it permanently, then restoring it breaks the oath and entails the occurrence of divorce according to the majority of jurists. It is advised that spouses engage in understanding and dialogue, and not use divorce as a means to solve problems.
