حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ، طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ، فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا، ثُمَّ يُمْهِلَهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى، ثُمَّ يُمْهِلَهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ، ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقَهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا " فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللهُ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ، وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ إِذَا سُئِلَ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يُطَلِّقُ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ؟ يَقُولُ: إِمَّا أَنْتَ طَلَّقْتَهَا وَاحِدَةً أَوِ اثْنَتَيْنِ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا، ثُمَّ يُمْهِلَهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى، ثُمَّ يُمْهِلَهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ، ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقَهَا إِنْ لَمْ يُرِدْ إِمْسَاكَهَا " وَإِمَّا أَنْتَ طَلَّقْتَهَا ثَلَاثًا فَقَدْ عَصَيْتَ اللهَ تَعَالَى فِيمَا أَمَرَكَ بِهِ مِنْ طَلَاقِ امْرَأَتِكَ وَبَانَتْ مِنْكَ وَبِنْتَ مِنْهَا (٢)،
Translation
English translation
Nafi’ (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) gave his wife a divorce while she was in her menstrual period. Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about this issue, so the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered that he should take her back and wait until she has her next menstrual period and then becomes pure, and then before approaching his wife, he may divorce her. This is the method according to which Allah has permitted men to divorce their wives. It was the practice of Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when he was asked about a person who divorces his wife during her menstrual period, he would say: Why did you not give her one or two divorces? For the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered that he should take his wife back and wait for the next menstrual period and then for her to become pure, and then before approaching her, he may divorce her. But you have given your wife three divorces; you have disobeyed the command of Allah regarding divorcing your wife, and your wife has become separated from you and you from her.
