Question:

At night my wife caused great physical pain to me, to my hand. I said to her that "if you don’t move, I will say that word to you" she said, “what?" I again repeated myself and said, "If you don’t move, I will say that word to you" she still didn’t move, and I pulled my hand out of the way. I did not say anything. As my wife knew I will not say anything. Am I still in Nikah?

 Answer:

Threatening to give ones wife Talaq is not considered to be Talaq. Talaq can be given verbally or through written words.
