The messenger of Allah (ﷺ) "Whichever woman seeks a Khul (Divorce) from her husband without ham (cause), then the scent of Paradise will be unlawful for her." At-Tirmidhi 1187, authenticated by Shaykh aal-Albaanee)
This hadith highlights the importance of the seriousness of marriage in Islam and discourages seeking divorce without valid reasons. The reference you provided from At-Tirmidhi 1187 (authenticated by Shaykh al-Albani) conveys a warning that if a woman seeks a khul', a type of divorce initiated by the wife, without legitimate cause or reason (ghayr sabab), she may be deprived of the scent of Paradise, which is a metaphor for losing the blessings of the hereafter.
In Islam, while divorce is permissible, it is discouraged unless necessary due to harm, abuse, or irreconcilable differences. Both men and women have rights to divorce, but they are cautioned to handle it responsibly, avoiding injustice or frivolous causes. The concept here is to ensure that divorce is not treated lightly and that the sanctity of marriage is upheld unless there are serious issues.
