How can your fatwa that intention is not a condition for an explicit divorce pronouncement be reconciled with the fatwa of العلامة الألباني that witnesses are a condition for divorce to take place?

The two issues mentioned are different: The first pertains to the wordings of divorce, and that an explicit (sareeh) pronouncement does not require intention and takes effect merely by the utterance, which is a matter of consensus. As for the second, it concerns the requirement of witnesses for divorce, which is a matter of dispute among jurists. The majority opinion is that witnessing is not a condition but is rather recommended, and this issue applies to all types of divorce.
