In classical legal examples, “anti ṭāliq” is explicit divorce wording. By contrast, a phrase such as “join your family” can be said in other circumstances. It is not automatically identical in legal force to explicit wording.

The treatment of an explicit expression must be distinguished from the relevance of intention and contextual indications in allusive wording. A particular real-life case cannot be decided solely from the phrase without assessing the applicable school’s rules and facts.

The aim is not to issue a real divorce ruling, but to understand the difference between unequivocal wording and language that permits several readings.
