The question

Does a divorce occur with the wife's saying, "Divorce me," while angry, and repeating that, especially after the husband warned her that repeating it would be considered a divorce, and then he ignored the matter when she repeated it?

The answer

It appears that the husband's phrase is an allusion that could mean either divorce or a promise of it. So, if the husband did not intend to make the divorce contingent on the wife's saying "Divorce me," then no divorce occurred. But if he did intend to make it contingent, then it has occurred.
