An indirect statement of divorce is considered a kinayah (allusion). If the father intended by it to divorce the mother, then the divorce occurs, and he may take her back before the expiration of her waiting period () if it was a first or second divorce. However, if he did not intend divorce by it, then nothing results from it, and the wife remains under his marital bond.
