Those Scholars Who Say Divorce Is for Men and Iddah Is for Women
Hadith 19252
١٩٢٥٢ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: نا إسماعيل بن علية عن أيوب عن سليمان بن يسار (أن نفيعا) (١) (فتى أم سلمة) (٢) طلق امرأته وهي حرة تطليقتين (فحرصوا) (٣) على أن يردوها عليه، وأبى عثمان وزيد (٤).
Hazrat Sulaiman bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that the slave Nafi’ of Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) gave two divorces to his free wife. People wanted this woman to return to his marriage. Hazrat Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) and Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) refused this. Hazrat Sulaiman (may Allah have mercy on him) says: “Does anyone have anything else to say besides this?” When I came to Madinah, I wrote a letter to Hazrat Abu Qilabah (may Allah have mercy on him). He wrote me back a hadith which satisfied my heart, that Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) and Qabisah bin Dhu’aib (may Allah be pleased with him) say: If the husband of a slave woman becomes free, then the divorce will be according to the free woman and the waiting period will be that of a slave woman; and if the husband of a free woman is a slave, then the divorce will be according to the slave and the waiting period will be that of a free woman.
