Does divorce occur if the wife goes to her family's home in anger and the husband says, "Bringing her back home is one thing, and her studying and working is another. Meaning, if she wants to study and work, she should stay with her family," with a 90% intention of divorce, and what is the ruling on that, considering the husband's obsessive doubts and his discomfort with the fatwas of some scholars?

Divorce does not occur with doubt, because the original state is the continuation of the marriage. Divorce also does not occur from one afflicted by intrusive thoughts (waswas) due to these thoughts. It is obligatory to disregard intrusive thoughts and not pay attention to them. One should seek Allah's help and supplicate frequently to get rid of them.
