Does a conditional divorce take effect if the wife goes out, and the husband intended by the condition "going out" during a state of anger, knowing that he was not angry at the time she went out?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If a husband conditions a divorce upon his wife doing or not doing something, and then the matter occurs contrary to what he conditioned, the divorce does not take effect. The husband mentioned that he intended your departure to be in anger, not with his permission and consent. Therefore, the divorce does not take effect by your leaving in a manner different from what he intended. It is advised to disregard obsessive thoughts.
