Question 1599) - What do you mean, ??affecting the woman personally"?

A: It will be clear to you from the following examples. He says to her, If you menstruate then you and your co-wife are divorced." If she says, "I am menstruating," then she will be divorced and not the co- wife, unless the husband accepts her word." If he says, "If you love me/ are angry with me then you are divorced.? she says, "I love you/I am angry with you.? Her words will be proof against her even if they contradict what is in her heart. Her words will not be used against a third party however.*

* Such as if he said, "If you love me then you and your co-wife are divorced." If she says, "I love you," then she is divorced but not the co-wife.
