من قال: ليس هو بطلاق، فلا يطأها الذي يشتريها حتى يطلقThose Scholars Who Say This Is Not Divorce, but the Buyer Cannot Consummate Until Divorce Is Issued
Hadith 19279
١٩٢٧٩ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: نا علي بن (هاشم) (١) عن ابن أبي ليلى عن الشعبي قال: أهدى رجل من همدان لعلي جارية، فلما أتته سألها (علي) (٢): أفارغة أم مشغولة؟ فقالت: مشغولة يا أمير المؤمنين، قال: فاعتزلها وأرسل إلى زوجها فاشترى بضعها منه بعشرين وأربعمائة (٣).
Hazrat Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that a man from Hamdan gifted one of his slave girls to Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). When she came to him, Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) asked her, "Are you free (from marital bond) or are you engaged (i.e., married)?" She replied, "O Commander of the Faithful! I am engaged, meaning I have a husband." Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) withdrew from her and sent a message to her husband, called him, and purchased her right for four hundred and twenty.
