The answer

When a husband utters a divorce pronouncement by way of narrating or reporting someone else's words, it does not constitute a divorce, and therefore, it has no effect on the marital bond. It is advisable to be cautious of obsessive thoughts regarding divorce. It is also worth noting that most TV series and films contain corrupting and forbidden elements.
