Divorce without a valid reason-what does Islam say?

Assalamu alaikum, I've been thinking about this lately-what's the ruling when a husband divorces his wife without any proper reason? Like, is there a specific punishment? I remember hearing that such a person won't even smell the fragrance of Jannah. Is that true? It's been bothering me.

True, and don't forget kids suffer most. Islam protects the family unit. Unjust divorce breaks that. The man will answer before Allah.

Brother, it's grave. Scholars say it's allowed only in dire situations. Otherwise it's a major sin. May Allah guide men to patience and taqwa.

Valid reasons like major disobedience, but just boredom? That's messed up. Our scholars say such divorce is sinful and the man is cursed if he does it unjustly.
