Such words spoken before the marriage contract have no effect on prohibiting the woman after marriage, whether it was a promise of prohibition, a suspension of divorce, or dhahār, which is not valid before the contract according to the majority of scholars. One should repent from establishing a relationship between a man and a woman before marriage.
