Does a divorce take effect with the statement, "Divorce be upon me, I will not call you again until you call me," if it was a lie?
Whoever claims he swore by divorce but did not swear, the preponderant opinion is that he does not become a swearer and does not break an oath by doing what he claimed he swore upon. Accordingly, your contacting your family does not result in divorce. If you deliberately lied, you must repent.
