Is a divorce considered to have occurred if the husband says "You are divorced" for the second time while he is angry and did not intend divorce?

If the husband utters the words of divorce while he is unaware of what he is saying due to extreme anger, then nothing is incumbent upon him. However, if he was aware of what he was saying at the time of divorce, then his divorce is effective, even if he did not intend divorce. He may reconcile with his wife before her waiting period (three menstrual cycles, or three months for one who does not menstruate) ends, if this was the second divorce.
