The answer

A husband's statement to his wife: "I will not divorce you, God willing," is a promise not to divorce in the future. It does not entail any rulings of divorce, nor does it prevent the husband from divorcing her in the future if a reason for it arises. However, divorce does not occur except by uttering it, and a husband's mere decision to divorce within himself has no consequence.
