Does divorce occur with a metaphorical utterance when in a state of extreme anger, and is it considered a revocable divorce?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The ruling on anger varies according to its degrees. Anger does not prevent the occurrence of divorce unless the person is unaware of what he is saying. If the word used is one of the ambiguous terms [kinaaya], then divorce does not occur except with intention. Trust, respect, and dialogue should prevail between spouses, and caution should be exercised regarding anger. Marital problems should not be a cause for divorce.
