My question is during those fights what if I have said something regrettable; I don&#8217;t remember now what I have said then. I love my wife very much and in my sane mind I would never even think of giving her a divorce; I am too scared of losing her. Just the word Talaq scares me, but whenever the quarrel starts it is like I am a totally different person in a fit of rage, sometimes I don&#8217;t even remember why we fought.
