DISCLAIMER 

•The Shariah ruling herein given is based specifically on the question posed and should be read in conjunction with the question.

•Darul Iftaa bears no responsibility to any party who may or may not act on this answer and is being hereby exempted from loss or damage howsoever caused.

•This answer may not be used as evidence in any Court of Law without prior written consent of the Darul Iftaa

Your statement, “I will give you divorce” constitutes an intention/promise to divorce in the future. It does not constitute a divorce.^[1]

A kulla is valid only with the consent of the husband. A kulla without the husband is not valid.^[2]

Accordingly, and if what you state is the reality of the situation, then your nikaah with your wife is intact. The marriage to another man is invalid and constitutes zina.

 And Allah Taala Knows Best
