2050. Awzā'i said: "I asked Zuhri: Which of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ sought refuge with Allāh from him?' He said: "Urwah told me, (narrating) from 'Aishah, that when the daughter of Jawn entered upon the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and he came close to her, she said: "I seek refuge with Allāh from you." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "You have sought refuge in the Almighty; go to your family." (Sahih)
2050 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ الزُّهْرِيَّ، أَيُّ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْتَعَاذَتْ مِنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ ابْنَةَ الْجَوْنِ لَمَّا دَخَلَتْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَدَنَا مِنْهَا، قَالَتْ: أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْكَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «عُذْتِ بِعَظِيمٍ، الْحَقِي بِأَهْلِكِ»

Some words used for divorce are very clear and manifest, and give clear message of divorce; for example: 'I divorce you.' These words consensually make the divorce effective. There are some words that have both meanings: divorce or any other meaning which is called "connotation." The clear and manifest meanings of these words rely on the intention of the person. If one uttered them with the intention of divorce, then the divorce would be effective, otherwise not.
