Does divorce take effect through obsessive thoughts, or through an inner verbalization, or by asking a Mufti about the meaning of an explicit divorce pronouncement, or by uttering the phrase "Do you want me to say 'you'?" with the intention of understanding the meaning of divorce, and does every word in divorce make it take effect?
