Is a husband's repeated statement to his wife: "I don't want you" and "I will never touch you" considered a divorce, knowing that he had previously divorced her twice, once years ago, and another time with eight consecutive divorces two years ago?

A husband's statements such as "I don't want you," "I don't want to touch you," or "I will not touch you," are not explicit pronouncements of divorce. Therefore, divorce does not occur through them unless there is an intention to divorce, and the husband's word regarding his intention is accepted. However, if he says, "By Allah, I will never touch you," this is an implicit reference to ila (a vow of abstinence). If he intends by it to abstain from conjugal relations with his wife, he becomes a muli (one who has made such a vow). If he has conjugal relations with her before four months have passed, he must offer expiation for breaking an oath. If he abstains from conjugal relations with her for more than four months, the wife has the right to present the matter to a judge to compel him either to return to conjugal relations (fay'ah) or to divorce her.
