Article 160 of Jaafari Personal Status Law

English translation

The formula of divorce may only employ the active participle derived from the word for divorce; thus, divorce takes effect only by saying: You are divorced, or This woman is divorced, or My wife is divorced.
Arabic original
صيغة الطلاق لا تكون إلا بلفظ اسم الفاعل المشتق من لفظ الطلاق، فلا يقع إلا بقول : أنت طالق ، أو هذه طالق أو زوجتي طالق.
