Translation
Narrated Sahl bin Sa'd (RA) concerning the story of the two (husband and wife) who invoked curses regarding one another
When they finished invoking curses regarding one another the man said, "I shall have lied against her, O Allah's Messenger, if I keep her (as a wife)." He, then, pronounced her divorce three times, even before Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) commanded him to do so.[Agreed upon].
