The question

Does a divorce take place or is an expiation (kaffarah) obligatory upon the husband who swore by triple divorce: "By Allah Almighty, by Allah Almighty, by Allah Almighty, it is forbidden, a divorce if I talk to you about what happens at my work," then he happened to talk to his wife about that while he was angry? And what is the amount of the expiation in Euros?

The answer

If the husband intended his oath as a promise and not a conditional divorce (ta'liq), and he spoke to you about his work, then no divorce or prohibition occurs. He is liable for a single expiation for breaking an oath, which is feeding ten poor persons or clothing them, or fasting for three days if he cannot afford that. However, if he intended to make divorce and prohibition conditional upon his speaking to you about his work, and this occurred, then divorce and prohibition take effect. The ruling regarding the prohibition depends on his intention. It is advisable to present the matter to a court or to trusted scholars.
