أَخْبَرَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ اللَّيْثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُوسَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ حُمَيْدٌ:‏‏‏‏ وَحَدَّثَتْنِي زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أُمِّهَا أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنَّ ابْنَتِي رَمِدَتْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَفَأَكْحُلُهَا ؟ وَكَانَتْ مُتَوَفًّى عَنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَلَا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ إِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَى بَصَرِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِلَّا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ تَحِدُّ عَلَى زَوْجِهَا سَنَةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ تَرْمِي عَلَى رَأْسِ السَّنَةِ بِالْبَعْرَةِ .

A woman from the Quraish came and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, my daughter's eyes are inflamed; shall I apply kohl to her?' (The daughter's) husband had died so (the Prophet) said: 'Not until four months and ten days (have passed).' Then she said: 'I fear for her sight.' He said: 'No, not until four months and ten days (have passed). During the Jahiliyyah one of you would mourn for her husband for a year, then when one year had passed she would throw a piece of dung.'

Zainab bint Abi Salamah narrated that her mother Umm Salamah رضی الله عنہا said

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أُمِّهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَأَلَتْهُ عَنِ ابْنَتِهَا مَاتَ زَوْجُهَا وَهِيَ تَشْتَكِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَحِدُّ السَّنَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ تَرْمِي الْبَعْرَةَ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا .

A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him about her daughter whose husband had died and she was ill. He said: One of you used to mourn for a year, then throw a piece of dung when a year had passed. Rather it (the mourning period) is four months and ten days.

It was narrated from Zainab bint Abi Salamah رضی الله عنہا , from her mother, that

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْدَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى بْنِ مَعْدَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَعْيَنَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ مَوْلَى الْأَنْصَارِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ جَاءَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ ابْنَتِي تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَدْ خِفْتُ عَلَى عَيْنِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَهِيَ تُرِيدُ الْكُحْلَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْتُ لِزَيْنَبَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا رَأْسُ الْحَوْلِ ؟ قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ إِذَا هَلَكَ زَوْجُهَا عَمَدَتْ إِلَى شَرِّ بَيْتٍ لَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجَلَسَتْ فِيهِ حَتَّى إِذَا مَرَّتْ بِهَا سَنَةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏خَرَجَتْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَرَمَتْ وَرَاءَهَا بِبَعْرَةٍ.

A woman from the Quraish came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: My daughter's husband has died, and I am worried about her eyes; she needs kohl. He said: One of you used to throw a piece of dung after a year had passed. Rather it (the mourning period) is four months and ten days. I (the narrator) said to Zainab: What does 'after a year had passed' mean? She said: During the Jahiliyyah, if a woman's husband died she would go to the worst room she had and stay there, then, when a year had passed, she would come out and throw a piece of dung behind her.

It was narrated from Zainab bint Abi Salamah, from Umm Salamah رضی الله عنہا that

أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْنَبَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ امْرَأَةً سَأَلَتْ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ:‏‏‏‏ أَتَكْتَحِلُ فِي عِدَّتِهَا مِنْ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا ؟ فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ أَتَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَأَلَتْهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ إِذَا تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا أَقَامَتْ سَنَةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَذَفَتْ خَلْفَهَا بِبَعْرَةٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ خَرَجَتْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا حَتَّى يَنْقَضِيَ الْأَجَلُ .

A woman asked Umm Salamah and Umm Habibah رضی اللہ عنہا whether she could put on kohl during her 'Iddah following her husband's death. She said: A woman came to the Prophet and asked him about that, and he said: 'During the Jahiliyyah, if her husband died, one of you would stay (in mourning) for a year, then she would throw a piece of dung then come out. Rather it (the mourning period) is four months and ten days, until the term prescribed is fulfilled.'

It was narrated from Zainab رضی اللہ عنہا that

أَخْبَرَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ هُوَ الدُّورِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ هِشَامٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ حَفْصَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَّهُ رَخَّصَ لِلْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا عِنْدَ طُهْرِهَا فِي الْقُسْطِ وَالْأَظْفَارِ .

He granted a concession to the woman whose husband has died, allowing her to use Qust and Azfar when purifying herself following her menses.

It was narrated from Hafsah, from Umm 'Atiyyah رضی الله عنہا , from the Prophet, that

أَخْبَرَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى السِّجْزِيُّ خَيَّاطُ السُّنَّةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ النَّحْوِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَيَذَرُونَ أَزْوَاجًا وَصِيَّةً لأَزْوَاجِهِمْ مَتَاعًا إِلَى الْحَوْلِ غَيْرَ إِخْرَاجٍ [سورة البقرة آية 240]، ‏‏‏‏‏‏نُسِخَ ذَلِكَ بِآيَةِ الْمِيرَاثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏مِمَّا فُرِضَ لَهَا مِنَ الرُّبُعِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالثُّمُنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَنَسَخَ أَجَلَ الْحَوْلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنْ جُعِلَ أَجَلُهَا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا .

With regard to Allah's saying: And those of you who die and leave behind wives should bequeath for their wives a year's maintenance and residence without turning them out. This was abrogated by the Verse on inheritance, which allocated to her one-quarter or one-eighth. And the appointed time ('Iddah) of one year was abrogated and replaced with the ('Iddah) term of four months and ten days.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas رضی الله عنہما

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَيَذَرُونَ أَزْوَاجًا وَصِيَّةً لأَزْوَاجِهِمْ مَتَاعًا إِلَى الْحَوْلِ غَيْرَ إِخْرَاجٍ[ سورة البقرة آية 240]، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ نَسَخَتْهَا:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَيَذَرُونَ أَزْوَاجًا يَتَرَبَّصْنَ بِأَنْفُسِهِنَّ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا [سورة البقرة آية 234] .

With regard to the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime: And those of you who die and leave behind wives should bequeath for their wives a year's maintenance and residence without turning them out, that he said: This was abrogated by: 'And those of you who die and leave wives behind them, they (the wives) shall wait (as regards their marriage) for four months and ten days.'

It was narrated from 'Ikrimah

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ قَيْسٍ أَخْبَرَتْهُ وَكَانَتْ عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا وَخَرَجَ إِلَى بَعْضِ الْمَغَازِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَمَرَ وَكِيلَهُ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهَا بَعْضَ النَّفَقَةِ فَتَقَالَّتْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْطَلَقَتْ إِلَى بَعْضِ نِسَاءِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهِيَ عِنْدَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏هَذِهِ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ قَيْسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏طَلَّقَهَا فُلَانٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا بِبَعْضِ النَّفَقَةِ فَرَدَّتْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَزَعَمَ أَنَّهُ شَيْءٌ تَطَوَّلَ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ صَدَقَ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ فَانْتَقِلِي إِلَى أُمِّ كُلْثُومٍ فَاعْتَدِّي عِنْدَهَا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ أُمَّ كُلْثُومٍ امْرَأَةٌ يَكْثُرُ عُوَّادُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْتَقِلِي إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّهُ أَعْمَى ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْتَقَلَتْ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاعْتَدَّتْ عِنْدَهُ حَتَّى انْقَضَتْ عِدَّتُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ خَطَبَهَا أَبُو الْجَهْمِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَسْتَأْمِرُهُ فِيهِمَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَمَّا أَبُو الْجَهْمِ فَرَجُلٌ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكِ قَسْقَاسَتَهُ لِلْعَصَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَمَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ فَرَجُلٌ أَمْلَقُ مِنَ الْمَالِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَزَوَّجَتْ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ.

Fatimah bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہا -who was married to a man of Banu Makhzum- told him that he divorced her three times. He went out on a military campaign and told his representative to give her some provision. She thought it was too little, so she went to one of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came in while she was with her. She said: O Messenger of Allah, this is Fatimah bint Qais who has been divorced by so-and-so. He sent her some provision but she rejected it. He said that it was something he did not have to do (a favor). He said: He is telling the truth. The Prophet ﷺ said: Go to Umm Kulthum and observe your 'Iddah in her house. Then he said: Umm Kulthum is a woman who has a lot of visitors. Go to 'Abdullah bin Umm Maktum for he is blind. So she went to 'Abdullah and observed her 'Iddah in his house, until her 'Iddah was over. Then Abu Al-Jahm and Mu'awiyah bin Abi Sufyan رضی اللہ عنہما proposed to her. So she came to the Messenger of Allah to consult him about them. He said: As for Abu Al-Jahm, he is a man the waving of whose stick I fear for you. And as for Mu'awiyah he is a man who does not have any money. So she married Usamah bin Zaid رضی اللہ عنہما after that.

Abdur-Rahman bin 'Asim narrated that

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حُجَيْنُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَ أَبِي عَمْرِو بْنِ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ فَطَلَّقَهَا آخِرَ ثَلَاثِ تَطْلِيقَاتٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَزَعَمَتْ فَاطِمَةُ أَنَّهَا جَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاسْتَفْتَتْهُ فِي خُرُوجِهَا مِنْ بَيْتِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَنْتَقِلَ إِلَى ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ الْأَعْمَى ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَبَى مَرْوَانُ أَنْ يُصَدِّقَ فَاطِمَةَ فِي خُرُوجِ الْمُطَلَّقَةِ مِنْ بَيْتِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ عُرْوَةُ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْكَرَتْ عَائِشَةُ ذَلِكَ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ .

Fatimah bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہما told him that she was married to Abu 'Amr bin Hafs bin Al-Mughirah, who divorced her by giving her the last of three divorces. Fatimah said that she came to the Messenger of Allah and consulted him about leaving her house. He told her to move to the house of Ibn Umm Maktum, the blind man. Marwan refused to believe Fatimah رضی اللہ عنہا about the divorced woman leaving her house. 'Urwah said: Aishah رضی اللہ عنہا denounced Fatimah رضی اللہ عنہا for that.

It was narrated from Abu Salamah bin 'Abdur-Rahman that

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَوْجِي طَلَّقَنِي ثَلَاثًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَخَافُ أَنْ يُقْتَحَمَ عَلَيَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَحَوَّلَتْ .

I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! My husband has divorced me three times and I am afraid that my house be broken into.' So he told her to move.

Hisham narrated from his father that Fatimah رضی الله عنہا said

I came to Fatimah bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہا and asked her about the ruling of the Messenger of Allah concerning her. She said that her husband divorced her irrevocably, and she referred her dispute with him, concerning accommodation and maintenance, to the Messenger of Allah. She said: 'He did not give me (the right to) accommodation and maintenance, and he told me to observe my 'Iddah in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum,'

It was narrated that Ash-Sha'bi said

أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاق الصَّاغَانِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْجَوَّابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارٌ هُوَ ابْنُ رُزَيْقٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ طَلَّقَنِي زَوْجِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرَدْتُ النُّقْلَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ انْتَقِلِي إِلَى بَيْتِ ابْنِ عَمِّكِ عَمْرِو بْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاعْتَدِّي فِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَحَصَبَهُ الْأَسْوَدُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَيْلَكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لِمَ تُفْتِي بِمِثْلِ هَذَا ؟ قَالَ عُمَرُ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ جِئْتِ بِشَاهِدَيْنِ يَشْهَدَانِ أَنَّهُمَا سَمِعَاهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِلَّا لَمْ نَتْرُكْ كِتَابَ اللَّهِ لِقَوْلِ امْرَأَةٍ لا تُخْرِجُوهُنَّ مِنْ بُيُوتِهِنَّ وَلا يَخْرُجْنَ إِلا أَنْ يَأْتِينَ بِفَاحِشَةٍ مُبَيِّنَةٍ[ سورة الطلاق آية 1 ].

My husband divorced me and I wanted to move, so I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said: 'Move to the house of your paternal cousin 'Amr bin Umm Maktum, and observe your 'Iddah there.' Al-Aswad hit him (Ash-Sha'bi) with a pebble and said: Woe be to you! Why do you issue such a Fatwa? 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: 'If you bring two witnesses who will testify that they heard that from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ (we will believe you), otherwise, we will not leave the Book of Allah for the word of a woman.' 'And turn them not out of their (husband's) homes nor shall they (themselves) leave, except in case they are guilty of some open Fahishah.'

It was narrated that Fatimah bint Qais رضی الله عنہا said

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ جَابِرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ طُلِّقَتْ خَالَتُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرَادَتْ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ إِلَى نَخْلٍ لَهَا فَلَقِيَتْ رَجُلًا فَنَهَاهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اخْرُجِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجُدِّي نَخْلَكِ لَعَلَّكِ أَنْ تَصَدَّقِي وَتَفْعَلِي مَعْرُوفًا .

His maternal aunt was divorced, and she wanted to go out to some date palms of hers, but she met a man who told her not to do that. She went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said: Go out and take the harvest of your date palms, for perhaps you will give Zakah or do some good (give voluntary charity).

It was narrated from Jabir رضی الله عنہ that

أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ دَخَلْتُ أَنَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ طَلَّقَنِي زَوْجِي فَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ لِي سُكْنَى وَلَا نَفْقَةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَوَضَعَ لِي عَشْرَةَ أَقْفِزَةٍ عِنْدَ ابْنِ عَمٍّ لَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏خَمْسَةٌ شَعِيرٌ وَخَمْسَةٌ تَمْرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْتُ لَهُ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ صَدَقَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَعْتَدَّ فِي بَيْتِ فُلَانٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَانَ زَوْجُهَا طَلَّقَهَا طَلَاقًا بَائِنًا .

Abu Salamah and I entered upon Fatimah bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہا , who said: My husband divorced me and he did not give me any accommodation or maintenance. She said: He left with me ten measures (Aqfizah) (of food) with a cousin of his: Five of barley and five of dates. I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him about that. He said: 'He has spoken the truth.' And he told me to observe my 'Iddah in the house of so-and-so. And her husband had divorced her irrevocably.

It was narrated that Abu Bakr bin Hafs said

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ:‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ طَلَّقَ ابْنَةَ سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَأُمُّهَا حَمْنَةُ بِنْتُ قَيْسٍ الْبَتَّةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَتْهَا خَالَتُهَا فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ قَيْسٍ بِالِانْتِقَالِ مِنْ بَيْتِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسَمِعَ بِذَلِكَ مَرْوَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَرْجِعَ إِلَى مَسْكَنِهَا حَتَّى تَنْقَضِيَ عِدَّتُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ تُخْبِرُهُ أَنَّ خَالَتَهَا فَاطِمَةَ أَفْتَتْهَا بِذَلِكَ وَأَخْبَرَتْهَا،‏‏‏‏ أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أَفْتَاهَا بِالِانْتِقَالِ حِينَ طَلَّقَهَا أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ حَفْصٍ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَرْسَلَ مَرْوَانُ قَبِيصَةَ بْنَ ذُؤَيْبٍ إِلَى فَاطِمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَزَعَمَتْ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَ أَبِي عَمْرٍو لَمَّا أَمَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَلَى الْيَمَنِ خَرَجَ مَعَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا بِتَطْلِيقَةٍ وَهِيَ بَقِيَّةُ طَلَاقِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَ لَهَا الْحَارِثَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَيَّاشَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ بِنَفَقَتِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَى الْحَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَيَّاشٍ تَسْأَلُهُمَا النَّفَقَةَ الَّتِي أَمَرَ لَهَا بِهَا زَوْجُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَا:‏‏‏‏ وَاللَّهِ مَا لَهَا عَلَيْنَا نَفَقَةٌ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ حَامِلًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَا لَهَا أَنْ تَسْكُنَ فِي مَسْكَنِنَا إِلَّا بِإِذْنِنَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَزَعَمَتْ فَاطِمَةُ أَنَّهَا أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ فَصَدَّقَهُمَا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ أَيْنَ أَنْتَقِلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ انْتَقِلِي عِنْدَ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَهُوَ الْأَعْمَى الَّذِي عَاتَبَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي كِتَابِهِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْتَقَلْتُ عِنْدَهُ فَكُنْتُ أَضَعُ ثِيَابِي عِنْدَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَتَّى أَنْكَحَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَعَمَتْ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ.

'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin 'Uthman divorced the daughter of Sa'eed bin Zaid -whose mother was Hamnah bint Qais - irrevocably. Her maternal aunt Fatimah bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہا told her to move from the house of 'Abdullah bin 'Amr. Marwan heard of that, so he sent word to her, telling her to go back to her home until her 'Iddah was over. She sent a word to him telling him that her maternal aunt Fatimah رضی اللہ عنہا had issued a Fatwa to that effect, and she told her that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had issued a Fatwa to her, telling her to move when Abu 'Amr bin Hafs Al-Makhzumi رضی اللہ عنہ divorced her. Marwan sent Qabisah bin Dhu'aib to Fatimah to ask her about that. She said that she had been married to Abu 'Amr when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ appointed 'Ali bin Abi Talib رضی اللہ عنہ as governor of Yemen, and he went out with him, then he sent word to her divorcing her, and that was the final divorce for her. He told her to ask Al-Harith bin Hisham and 'Ayyash for her provisions that her husband had allocated for her. They said: By Allah, she is not entitled to any provision. So, she sent to Al-Harith bin Hisham and 'Ayyash asking them for the provisions from us unless she is pregnant, and she has no right to live in our house unless we permit her. Fatimah رضی اللہ عنہا said that she went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him about that and he said that they had told the truth. She said: I said: 'Where shall I move to, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' He said: 'Move to the house of Ibn Umm Maktum' -who was the blind man, concerning whom Allah rebuked him in His Book. I moved to his house, and I used to take off my outer garments. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married her to Usamah bin Zaid رضی اللہ عنہما .

Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah bin 'Utbah narrated that

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْأَشَجِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الْمُنْذِرِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي حُبَيْشٍ حَدَّثَتْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهَا أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَشَكَتْ إِلَيْهِ الدَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ عِرْقٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْظُرِي إِذَا أَتَاكِ قُرْؤُكِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَا تُصَلِّي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا مَرَّ قُرْؤُكِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلْتَطْهُرِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ ثُمَّ صَلِّي مَا بَيْنَ الْقُرْءِ إِلَى الْقُرْءِ .

She came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and complained to him about (continual) bleeding. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to her: That is a vein. Look and when your period comes, do not pray, and when your period ends, then purify yourself and pray during the time between one period and the next.

It was narrated from 'Amr bin Az-Zubair that Fatimah bint Abi Hubaish رضی الله عنہا told him that

حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ النَّحْوِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ،‏‏‏‏ فِي قَوْلِهِ:‏‏‏‏ مَا نَنْسَخْ مِنْ آيَةٍ أَوْ نُنْسِهَا نَأْتِ بِخَيْرٍ مِنْهَا أَوْ مِثْلِهَا [سورة البقرة آية 106]،‏‏‏‏ وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَإِذَا بَدَّلْنَا آيَةً مَكَانَ آيَةٍ وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُنَزِّلُ [سورة النحل آية 101]،‏‏‏‏ وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَمْحُو اللَّهُ مَا يَشَاءُ وَيُثْبِتُ وَعِنْدَهُ أُمُّ الْكِتَابِ [سورة الرعد آية 39]،‏‏‏‏ فَأَوَّلُ مَا نُسِخَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ الْقِبْلَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَالْمُطَلَّقَاتُ يَتَرَبَّصْنَ بِأَنْفُسِهِنَّ ثَلاثَةَ قُرُوءٍ وَلا يَحِلُّ لَهُنَّ أَنْ يَكْتُمْنَ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ فِي أَرْحَامِهِنَّ [سورة البقرة آية 228] إِلَى قَوْلِهِ إِنْ أَرَادُوا إِصْلاحًا[ سورة البقرة آية 228]، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ الرَّجُلَ كَانَ إِذَا طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِرَجْعَتِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنْ طَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَنَسَخَ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ الطَّلاقُ مَرَّتَانِ فَإِمْسَاكٌ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ تَسْرِيحٌ بِإِحْسَانٍ [سورة البقرة آية 229] .

Regarding Allah's saying: Whatever a Verse do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring a better one or similar to it. and And when We change a Verse in place of another -and Allah knows best what He sends down (Al-Nahl 16:101) and Allah blots out what He wills and confirms (what He wills). And with Him is the Mother of the Book. The first thing that was abrogated in the Qur'an was the Qiblah. And He said: And divorced women shall wait (as regards their marriage) for three menstrual periods, and it is not lawful for them to conceal what Allah has created in their wombs, if they believe in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands have better right to take them back in that period, if they wish for reconciliation. -that is because when a man divorced his wife, he had more right to take her back, even if he had divorced her three times. Then (Allah) abrogated that and said: The divorce is twice, after that, either you retain her on reasonable terms or release her with kindness.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas رضی الله عنہما

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ يُونُسَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عُمَرُ فَذَكَرَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ مُرْهُ أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ يَعْنِي فَإِنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عُمَرَ:‏‏‏‏ فَاحْتَسَبْتَ مِنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا يَمْنَعُهَا أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ عَجَزَ وَاسْتَحْمَقَ.

I divorced my wife when she was menstruating. 'Umar رضی الله عنہ went to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about that. The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Tell him to take her back, then when she becomes pure, if he wants to, let him divorce her.' I said to Ibn 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہما: Did that count as one divorce? He said: Why not? What do you think if some becomes helpless and behaves foolishly.

Ibn 'Umar رضی الله عنہما said

حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْبَأَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ إِدْرِيسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاق، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ،‏‏‏‏ وَعُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ. ح وأَخْبَرَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَذَكَرَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّهُ الطَّلَاقُ الَّذِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ تَعَالَى:‏‏‏‏ فَطَلِّقُوهُنَّ لِعِدَّتِهِنَّ سورة الطلاق آية 1 .

He divorced his wife when she was menstruating. 'Umar رضی الله عنہ, mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: Tell him to take her back until she menstruates again, then when she becomes pure, if he wants he may divorce her and if he wants he may keep her. This is the divorce that Allah has enjoined. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, says: 'The divorce is twice, after that, either you retain her on reasonable terms or release her with kindness.'

It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar رضی الله عنہما that

أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ إِذَا سُئِلَ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَيَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ أَمَّا إِنْ طَلَّقَهَا وَاحِدَةً أَوِ اثْنَتَيْنِ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ يُمْسِكَهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقَهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَمَّا إِنْ طَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَدْ عَصَيْتَ اللَّهَ فِيمَا أَمَرَكَ بِهِ مِنْ طَلَاقِ امْرَأَتِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَبَانَتْ مِنْكَ امْرَأَتُكَ .

When Ibn 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہما was asked about a man who divorced his wife when she was menstruating, he would say: If it is the first or second divorce, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would tell him to take her back and keep her until she has menstruated again and purified herself, then divorce her before having intercourse with her. But if it was three simultaneous divorces, then you have disobeyed Allah with regard to the way in which divorce should be conducted and your wife has become irrevocably divorced.

It was narrated from Nafi said

أَخْبَرَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ عِيسَى مَرْوَزِيٌّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَنْظَلَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَالِمٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَاجَعَهَا .

He divorced his wife when she was menstruating, and the Messenger of Allah told him to take her back.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar رضی الله عنہما that

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ:‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنِيهِ ابْنُ طَاوُسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ يُسْأَلُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ حَائِضًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَتَعْرِفُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ نَعَمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَإِنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ حَائِضًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَى عُمَرُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ الْخَبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ يَزِيدُ عَلَى هَذَا.

He heard 'Abdullah bin 'Umar being asked about a man who divorced his wife when she was menstruating. He said: Do you know 'Abdullah bin 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہما ? He said: Yes. He said: He divorced his wife when she was menstruating, and 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ went to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about that. He ordered him to take her back until she became pure, and I did not hear him adding anything to that.

Ibn Tawus narrated from his father that

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْبَأَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ. ح وَأَنْبَأَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ نُبِّئْتُ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ زَكَرِيَّا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ عَمْرٌو:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَ طَلَّقَ حَفْصَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ رَاجَعَهَا ،‏‏‏‏ وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ.

The Prophet ﷺ-'Amr (one of the narrators) said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ- had divorced Hafsah رضی اللہ عنہا, then he took her back. And Allah knows best.
