What is the ruling on taking sisters along when going out with one's wife, after swearing an oath of divorce, and does the divorce occur, knowing that the oath was made in a state of anger?
Swearing an oath of divorce regarding a future matter is considered a conditional divorce (ta'liq al-), and its ruling varies according to the intention of the one who swears the oath:
- If he intended divorce: it occurs upon the fulfillment of the condition.
- If he intended it as a threat or an inducement: scholars differ on this. The majority are of the opinion that it occurs even if he did not intend divorce, while some are of the opinion that it does not occur.
So, if you intended divorce when you swore the oath, then it occurs if your sisters go out with you in the aforementioned state.
And if you did not intend divorce, but rather intended an oath, then there is the mentioned difference of opinion.
