Ibn 'Abbas (RA) reported that the (pronouncement) of three divorces during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and that of Abu Bakr (RA) and two years of the caliphate of Umar (RA) (was treated) as one. But Umar bin Khattab (RA) said: Verily the people have begun to hasten in the matter in which they are required to observe respite. So if we had imposed this upon them, and he imposed it upon them.

Abu Sahba' said toIbn 'Abbas (RA) : Do you know that three (divorces) were treated as one during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) , and that of Abu Bakr, and during three (years) of the caliphate of Umar (RA) ? Ibn Abbas (RA) said: Yes.
Hadith 1472
Abu al-Sahba' said to Ibn 'Abbas (RA) : Enlighten us with your information whether the three divorces (pronounced at one and the same time) were not treated as one during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr. He said: It was in fact so, but when during the caliphate of 'Umar (RA) people began to pronounce divorce frequently, he allowed them to do so (to treat pronouncements of three divorces in a single breath as one).
