Hadith 2008
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ جُمَيْعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سِمَاكٌ ، عَنْ عِكرِمَةَ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَسْلَمَتْ فَتَزَوَّجَهَا رَجُلٌ ، قَالَ : فَجَاءَ زَوْجُهَا الْأَوَّلُ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي قَدْ كُنْتُ أَسْلَمْتُ مَعَهَا وَعَلِمَتْ بِإِسْلَامِي ، قَالَ : " فَانْتَزَعَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ زَوْجِهَا الْآخَرِ وَرَدَّهَا إِلَى زَوْجِهَا الْأَوَّلِ " .
´It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that:` a woman came to the Prophet and became Muslim, and a man married her. Then her first husband came and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I became Muslim with her, and she knew that I was Muslim." So the Messenger of Allah took her away from her second husband and returned her to her first husband.

Benefits and Issues:
➊
The narration is weak in its chain of transmission; however, the ruling is that if either of the spouses accepts Islam, separation occurs between them.
But if, during the waiting period (‘iddah), the husband also becomes Muslim, then the woman will remain in the marriage bond of that same husband.
Afterwards, if she does not wish to wait for her former husband, she is justified in marrying a Muslim man.
However, if she chooses to wait until he becomes Muslim, even if the period becomes lengthy, there is no harm in this.
As will be mentioned in the following chapter and hadith.

Takhrij:
«أخرجه أبوداود، الطلاق، باب إذا أسلم أحد الزوجين، حديث:2239، وابن ماجه، النكاح، حديث:2008، وأحمد:1 /364، وابن حبان (الإحسان):6 /182، حديث:4147، والحاكم:2 /200 وصححه، ووافقه الذهبي.* سماك عن عكرمة، سلسلة ضعيفة.»©Explanation:
The aforementioned narration is weak in its chain of transmission; however, the ruling remains that if, due to religious difference, separation and dissolution occur between husband and wife—such that the woman accepts Islam, and then during her waiting period (‘iddah), the man also accepts Islam, and the woman is aware of the man’s acceptance of Islam—then in such a case, she is absolutely not permitted to marry elsewhere. If she does so, the marriage will be declared invalid.
