The answer

The husband's statement to his wife, "You are considered divorced" if she leaves without permission, is a conditional divorce (ta'liq al-talaq). This wording falls under ambiguous expressions (kinayah), and the occurrence of divorce depends on the husband's intention. If the husband did not intend divorce by this statement, then it does not occur upon her leaving without his permission. Since the husband has previously divorced his wife twice, they must avoid problems and refrain from uttering divorce, and he must control his anger.
