Q: I saw a dream that I was standing beside the graveyard looking for my grave but the graveyard was full and my Hajj Muallim is telling me that there is no space for you in this group (Muslims) and he locked the section so I found open space outside this section but suddenly a non Muslim group came to bury their old mother (Mexican) next to my place where I am standing and I am telling them that do not bury her here because this is my mother's grave so they went away. My mother died very long time ago and her grave is in Pakistan. Could you please tell me about this?

Does that count as a talaaq and does my iddat start immediatel?. He just messaged me again saying "its a divorce" so I'm confused as to whether I need to sit in iddat ?
