Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 18911 — Divorce by one with delirium and one

Yunus (may Allah have mercy on him) said: A man from Syria, in whom I saw no harm, narrated to me: We were on a military expedition when a companion of ours was struck by an illness that made him talk incoherently, and he divorced his wife three times. When he recovered, the people said to him: You said such and such. He said: I have no knowledge of having said anything of the sort, little or much, and I do not recognize it. Then a man from among us rode to Umar bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) for some need of his. When he had settled his need, he asked him about that, and he left the matter to the man's own conscience (accepting his word, so that the divorce had no effect).
