Those who permitted taking from a woman obtaining khul more than he gave her

Kathir (may Allah have mercy on him) said that a woman who was disobedient to her husband was brought to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). He had her confined for three days in a house full of dung, then called her and asked her: "How did you find it?" She said: "Since I was married to this man until now, I have found rest only in these days in which I was confined here." He said to her husband: "Let her go by khul', even if it is for just one of her earrings."

Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Divorce her by khul', even in return for everything she has short of the cloth that ties her hair.

Nafi' (may Allah have mercy on him) said that a freed slave-woman (mawlah) of Safiyyah bint Abi Ubayd took khul' from her husband in return for all her belongings, even some of her clothes. When this reached Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), he did not forbid it.

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that a woman may take khul' from her husband even if she has to give up the cloth that ties her hair.

The same is also reported from Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him).

Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) said that in return for khul' the husband may take everything from the woman, even the cloth that ties her hair.

Al-Dahhak (may Allah have mercy on him) said that if a man takes more than the dower (mahr) as compensation for khul', it is permissible.
