The answer

Divorce does not occur except through an explicit utterance indicating it, or through an allusion (a word that denotes separation but is not explicit in it) accompanied by the intention to bring it about. What you uttered or intended does not cause divorce to occur, due to its lack of indication thereof. We draw attention to the prohibition of harming a Muslim, especially one's wife, for a severe warning has been mentioned regarding harming a Muslim unjustly. And it is obligatory to treat one's wife kindly.
