Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Zaid bin Wahb (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that there was a man in Madinah who used to joke and jest excessively. He gave his wife a thousand divorces. His case was presented before Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said, "I was only joking." Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) struck him on the head with a whip and separated the two of them.
