Answer

(Fatwa: 721/602=D/1430)

If the husband said without oath: “We are sleeping together for the last time and after this we will never have sex”, then it is not eela and it will not cause any Talaq, they will remain spouses as before:

هو الْحَلِفُ على تَرْكِ قُرْبَانِهَا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ أو أَكْثَرَ كَقَوْلِهِ لَا أَقْرَبَك أربعۃ أشھر، قید المصنف بالقسم؛ لأنہ لو قال: لَا أَقْرَبَك و لم یقل: واللہ، لا یکون مولیا، کذا ذکرہ الإسبیجابي (البحر الرائق 4:102، کتاب الایلاء)
