What is the ruling regarding the divorce that occurred to the first wife by the husband's statement: "If you leave the house, you are divorced," if she did not leave? And does divorce occur by the husband's statement to the second wife after hitting her: "You are divorced"? And does divorce occur if the husband said to the brother of the third wife: "Tell her that you are divorced," then called her two months later saying: "Return to your children, for I have taken you back," and denied divorcing her in front of her brother?
