What is the expiation for an oath of divorce, "By divorce, you will come out with me from their house now," in the event that the postpartum wife does not leave, and what is the ruling on the mother-in-law slapping the wife when she expels the husband?
The majority of scholars hold that divorce occurs by swearing an oath of divorce if the condition for the oath is met, and this is the we adhere to. Therefore, since you swore that your wife should leave immediately and she did not, the divorce has occurred. If this was the first or second divorce, you may take your wife back as long as she is still within her waiting period (). If her iddah has expired, you cannot take her back except with a new marriage contract. However, if this was the third divorce, she becomes unlawful for you until she marries another man willingly and he divorces her after consummating the marriage. Swearing by divorce is not permissible.
