حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَامٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، وَإِنِ امْرَأَةٌ خَافَتْ مِنْ بَعْلِهَا نُشُوزًا أَوْ إِعْرَاضًا ، قَالَتْ : " هِيَ الْمَرْأَةُ تَكُونُ عِنْدَ الرَّجُلِ لَا يَسْتَكْثِرُ مِنْهَا فَيُرِيدُ طَلَاقَهَا وَيَتَزَوَّجُ غَيْرَهَا ، تَقُولُ لَهُ : أَمْسِكْنِي وَلَا تُطَلِّقْنِي ، ثُمَّ تَزَوَّجْ غَيْرِي فَأَنْتَ فِي حِلٍّ مِنَ النَّفَقَةِ عَلَيَّ وَالْقِسْمَةِ لِي ، فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى : فَلا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِمَا أَنْ يُصْلِحَا بَيْنَهُمَا صُلْحًا وَالصُّلْحُ خَيْرٌ سورة النساء آية 128 " .
Narrated Aisha: regarding the Verse: 'If a wife fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part ...') (4.128) It concerns the woman whose husband does not want to keep her with him any longer, but wants to divorce her and marry some other lady, so she says to him: 'Keep me and do not divorce me, and then marry another woman, and you may neither spend on me, nor sleep with me.' This is indicated by the Statement of Allah: 'There is no blame on them if they arrange an amicable settlement between them both, and (such) settlement is better." (4.128)

Hadith Commentary:
(1)
The explanation of this hadith is also found in another narration. Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhuma) states that when Sawda (radi Allahu anha) feared that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) might divorce her, she said to him: "Do not divorce me; I give my turn (for spending the night) to Aisha (radi Allahu anha)." Thus, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) acted accordingly. At that time, the aforementioned verse was revealed, indicating that whatever condition the husband and wife agree upon for reconciliation is permissible. (Jami' al-Tirmidhi, Tafsir al-Qur'an, Hadith: 3040)
(2)
In this noble verse, reconciliation refers to reducing or completely waiving the dower (mahr), relinquishing one's turn, foregoing maintenance (nafaqah), or gifting the husband something that inclines him towards her. In any case, reconciliation is better than divorce, because it ends mutual discord. There is consensus of the Ummah on this type of reconciliation. (Umdat al-Qari: 180/14)
