What is the difference between "ṭallaqtuka" (I have divorced you) with a reduplicated lām and "ṭalaqtuka" (I met you/received you) with a non-reduplicated lām, and how can one differentiate between them?
The word "ṭallaqtuk" (I divorce you), with emphasis on the 'lam' (ل), is an explicit declaration of divorce. However, without emphasis on the 'lam', it is not an explicit declaration of divorce due to the possibility of it having another meaning. One should refrain from being overly meticulous in questioning and from excessive splitting of issues.
