· 21 Muharram 1446 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My husband and I had an argument on WhatsApp. He messaged me and texted that I'm leaving u from today..I'm blocking u all and said I'm breaking over the relationships. At that same moment I left the car as I was traveling and I asked him u divorce me... u using these words. He said are u mad .. did I used divorce...

He swears to Allah he didn't intended divorce by that... He just threatening me and he just mean I will leave you but didn't leave. His sister saying she ask mufti and mufti said no divorce occur. What could I do, should I believe them?

Answer

If he did not intend talaaq at the time when he said "I am leaving you", then no talaaq has taken place.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
