Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If someone asks a man Is she your girlfriend. And he lies and answers that “yeah SHE IS my girlfriend” and does not tell him that THE WOMAN IS \u00a0his wife. Will the lie constitute divorce?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are two main types of statements when it comes to pronouncing divorce, Sarih and Kinaya.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sarih (explicit\/clear) statements of divorce are those expressions said by the husband to the wife that is plain\/direct and clear using the word divorce such as \u2018I have divorced you\u2019 and \u2018you are divorced\u2019 etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ibn Abideen states that \u201cA clear (sarih) statement of divorce is that which is\u00a0customarily\u00a0used for divorce in a way that it is not used for anything but divorce\u2026\u201d1<\/sup><\/a> This will also be the case if it was sent in clear unambiguous writing or by text message<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Kinaya (allusive) means using words\/expressions that are not exclusively used for issuing divorce, but they allude and hint to it. They can mean divorce as well as something other than divorce.2<\/sup><\/a> However a kinaya word or expression is only counted as a divorce if the husband had clearly intended divorce by it, otherwise it has no effect.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Therefore, in this case, if the man had no intention of divorce by referring to his wife as his girlfriend no divorce has taken place.<\/span><\/p>\n
