عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمٰنِ بْنَ أَيْمَنَ يَسْأَلُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ وَأَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ يَسْمَعُ فَقَالَ: كَيْفَ فِي رَجُلٍ طَلَّقَ إِمْرَأَتَهُ حَائِضًا؟ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ طَلَّقَ إِمْرَأَتَهُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ طَلَّقَ إِمْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((لِيُرَاجِعْهَا)) (عَلَيَّ وَلَمْ يَرَهُ شَيْئًا وَقَالَ فَرَدَّهَا) إِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَلْيُطَلِّقْ أَوْ يُمْسِكْ)) قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: وَقَرَأَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِذَا طَلَّقْتُمُ النِّسَاءَ فَطَلِّقُوهُنَّ فِي قُبُلِ عِدَّتِهِنَّ} [الطلاق: 1] قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ: وَسَمِعْتُ مُجَاهِدًا يَقْرَؤُهَا كَذٰلِكَ
It is narrated from Abu Zubair, he says: Abdur Rahman bin Aiman was asking Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), while I was listening. He said: What is your opinion about the man who divorces his wife during her menstrual period? He said: I, Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), divorced my wife in the same way during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! Abdullah has divorced his wife during her menstrual period. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He should take her back, then when she becomes pure, if he wishes he may divorce her or if he wishes he may keep her. In this way, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned her to me and did not consider it anything. Then Sayyiduna Ibn Umar said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: {یَا أیُّھَا النَّبِیُّ إِذَا طَلَقَّتُمُ النِّسَائَ فَطَلِّقُوْھُنَّ فِیْ قُبُلِ عِدَّتِہِنَّ} … O Prophet! When you divorce women, divorce them at the commencement of their waiting period. Ibn Jurayj says: I heard Mujahid recite this verse in the same way.
