Does divorce take effect upon the husband's statement, "If I didn't want you, I would have told you, 'Go, so-and-so, I don't want you,'" if his intention was to explain and clarify, and not to divorce?

What the husband mentioned does not constitute a divorce. It is merely a narration, an explanation, and a statement of fact, and he does not intend to initiate a divorce thereby. For a divorce to occur, there must be an intention for both the لفظ (wording) and the معنى (meaning). Therefore, what was mentioned has no effect on the marital bond, and obsessive thoughts must be dispelled by ignoring them.
