A man married to a slave woman who divorces her once and then she is freed

Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: If a slave woman is given two divorces and then she gains her freedom before her waiting period is completed, she observes the waiting period of a slave woman.

Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: When a slave woman is given one divorce and then gains her freedom before her waiting period is completed, she observes the waiting period of a free woman. If she is given two divorces and then gains her freedom, she observes the waiting period of a slave woman, because she has become irrevocably separated from him. The same ruling applies to the slave woman whose husband dies and who then also gains her freedom.

Al-Hasan (al-Basri) said: When a man gives one divorce to his wife who is a slave woman, and then she is set free during the waiting period, she observes the waiting period of a free woman. And when he gives her two divorces and then she is set free, he may not marry her until she marries another husband, and her waiting period will be the waiting period of a slave woman.

Al-Dahhak (may Allah have mercy on him) said: If a slave woman is given two divorces and then she is set free during her waiting period, she observes a waiting period of two menstrual periods. If she is given one divorce and is set free during her waiting period, she observes a waiting period of three menstrual periods, and her husband has more right to her.

Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Her waiting period will be the waiting period of a free woman.

Amir (al-Sha'bi) (may Allah have mercy on him) said: If a slave woman is given two divorces and then she is set free, her waiting period will be the waiting period of a slave woman; and if she is set free after being given one divorce, her waiting period will be the waiting period of a free woman.
