A man who gives his wife as a gift to her family

Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If a man gives his wife as a gift to her own family, then if her family accept her, it is one divorce and he has the right to take her back; and if they do not accept her, nothing is binding.

Al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from one of the Companions: If a man gives his wife as a gift to her own family, then if they accept her, it is one irrevocable (ba'in) divorce; and if they do not accept her, it is one divorce and the man has the right to take her back.

Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If a man gives his wife as a gift to her own family and they accept her, it counts as three divorces; that woman is then not lawful for that husband until she marries another man. If they refuse to accept her, it is one divorce and the man has the right to take her back. This was also the view of al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him).
