أنت بائن
You are separate.
“Bāʾin” denotes separation, a concept that can refer to termination of a marital bond but is not restricted to that use. It can also suggest forms of separation unrelated to divorce.
Accordingly, the word is treated as kināyah in the divorce discussion. Intention or an appropriate contextual indication selects a divorce-related sense. Unlike “anta ṭāliq,” it does not directly name divorce within the expression itself.
