Does divorce occur if the husband tells his wife's brother that he swore by triple divorce that his wife would not leave without his permission, then the wife leaves without his permission, and the husband then says that he adopts the view of the majority?

As long as the husband did not swear an oath of divorce, his wife is not divorced by her leaving the house. And the husband's statement that he adopts the view of the majority does not result in divorce. The questioner is advised to ignore intrusive thoughts and avoid excessive questioning and elaborations, as these increase the intrusive thoughts.
