Does a divorce occur if a man says to his wife, "O you whore," during intercourse?
Divorce does not occur with the saying, "O harlot," because it is not among the explicit or allusive divorce pronouncements. However, one must repent to Allah for this obscene word, as it contradicts the character of a believer and may be considered a slander that necessitates a prescribed punishment according to some scholars.
