Does divorce take place with the statement, "Since we couldn't agree on many matters, why don't we separate?" despite uncertainty about the intention to divorce?
The phrase mentioned is neither an explicit divorce pronouncement nor one of its allusions, so divorce does not occur with it. The spouses are advised to reach an understanding and live together amicably, and to beware of anger, for it is the key to evil. As stated in the Hadith: "Do not get angry," and anger is the sum of evil, while guarding against it is the sum of good.
