asalahu aleykum brother please help me and my wife had an argument and i have said to her “here is your car keys and your house keys bye bye i am going my dads house” i think was just angry and wanted to punish her or make her scared and i don’t really know what my intention was when i said these words, but i was not ready to issue her with talaq i left the house but came back after 20 minutes when my anger goes and we continued normal, and we forgave each other and had intercourse the same night. i don’t think i was ready to divorce her but i was angry with her . and i am having doubts of my intentions when i said these words. i am just confused this happened 8 months ago and now she pregnant, please help
i dint even know you can divorce like that i only thought divorce would only come to effect if you utter the talaq so having known these words could be considered divorce i am 100% sure i wouldn’t have said it wallahi
i think i said these words with the intention to make my wife worry, but without the intention to divorce her But i am uncertain about my intention when i said these words and forgot what my intention was, will Allah SW judge me for this? and is she still my wife? i fear Allah SW and i am a man who takes his deen very seriously and do not like to life in doubts so please clear this doubts for me my Allah SW guide us all amiin
