Is the husband's statement to his wife, "She's a queen, even tonight, it's clear you're deleting, and I'm divorcing myself in everything," in response to her request for a divorce, considered a divorce?

Divorce does not occur with such a phrase, nor does it occur in writing unless there is an intention to enact it. We advise the spouses to avoid uttering phrases of divorce, whether verbally or in writing, because they may weaken the marital life or lead to separation. Respect and understanding should prevail between them, and each should fulfill the rights of the other, so that the family may be stable and happy.
