Talaaq

Jokingly divorcing one's wife on WhatsApp

Q: I was working in the Gulf 20 days back and I sent my wife's sister a WhatsApp message as joke. I wrote: "I don't like you and your family so talaq talaq talaq. So tell me how much I have to pay and you are my sister" I was just joking and I don't know much about talaq, only what I see on tv news. I am in India but my wife is telling me that I have given her talaq so everything ends now and I should go back home. Allah knows I was just joking and really I don't know about talaq laws.
