Ruling If a Man Says to His Wife: 'I Have Left Your Path' or 'I Have No Right Over You'

Hazrat Hakam (may Allah have mercy on him) says that if a man says to his wife, "I have left your way," then his intention will be taken into account. He was asked, "Do you think that he intended three (divorces)?" He replied, "I fear that this is the case."

Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) said that if a person says to his wife, "I have no right over you," then one irrevocable divorce (talaq bainah) will take place.

It is also narrated in the same way from Hazrat Aamir, may Allah have mercy on him.
