Does divorce occur with the saying, "Get out of my house," when there was no intention of divorce during extreme anger?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A man's statement to his wife, "Get out of my house," is not an explicit declaration of divorce but rather one of its allusive phrases. If he did not intend divorce by it, then nothing is consequent upon it. It is advisable to avoid excessive anger, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, recommended against anger.
