Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 1708 — A thrice-divorced woman does not return

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، نَبَا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا ، مِثْلَ الْحَدِيثِ قَبْلَهُ ... " لَا تَحِلُّ لَهُ حَتَّى تَذُوقَ الْعُسَيْلَةَ ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said (concerning a woman who has received three divorces): "That woman will not be lawful for him (her first husband) until she tastes the honey (of her second husband) (that is, until she establishes marital relations with him)."
According to the commentators of hadith, what is meant by this metaphor is the pleasure of intercourse and conjugal relations, which is a necessary legal condition, after a second marriage, for a woman divorced three times to return to her first husband.
