حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ النَّحْوِيِّ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : "وَالْمُطَلَّقَاتُ يَتَرَبَّصْنَ بِأَنْفُسِهِنَّ ثَلاثَةَ قُرُوءٍ وَلا يَحِلُّ لَهُنَّ أَنْ يَكْتُمْنَ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ فِي أَرْحَامِهِنَّ سورة البقرة آية 228 الْآيَةَ ، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ كَانَ إِذَا طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ ، فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِرَجْعَتِهَا ، وَإِنْ طَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا فَنُسِخَ ذَلِكَ ، وَقَالَ : الطَّلاقُ مَرَّتَانِ سورة البقرة آية 229 " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: Divorced women shall wait concerning themselves for three monthly periods. Nor is it lawful for them to hide what Allah hath created in their wombs. This means that if a man divorced his wife he had the right to take her back in marriage though he had divorced her by three pronouncements. This was then repealed (by a Quranic verse). Divorce is only permissible twice.
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Before the revelation of instructions regarding divorce, people would continue to give divorce and take their wives back, and there was no limit or specified number for divorces.
The Noble Qur’an restricted them to only three: two are revocable, and after the third, taking her back is not permissible.
