ما قالوا إذا طلق سرا راجع سراThose Scholars Who Say That If Divorce Is Given Secretly, Reconciliation Should Also Be Secret
Hadith 20362
٢٠٣٦٢ - [حدثنا أبو بكر قال: نا عباد بن العوام عن جويبر عن الضحاك عن عبد اللَّه قال: إذا طلق سرًا راجع سرًا، (فتلك) (١) رجعة، فإن (واقع) (٢) فلا بأس، (و) (٣) إن طلق (علانية) (٤) وراجع فليشهد على رجعته] (٥) (٦).
Hazrat Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says that when divorce is given in secret, then reconciliation should also be done in secret; this is reconciliation. If after that he has intercourse, there is no harm. If divorce is given openly and reconciliation is done, then he should take witnesses on his reconciliation.
