مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ : إِذَا خَيَّرَ الرَّجُلُ امْرَأَتَهُ، فَاخْتَارَتْهُ، فَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِطَلَاقٍ . ¤ قَالَ مَالِكٌ : وَذَلِكَ أَحْسَنُ مَا سَمِعْتُ . ¤
It is narrated from Ibn Shihab (may Allah have mercy on him) that he used to say: When a man gives his wife the right of choice, and then the woman chooses him (her husband), then this choice will not be counted as a divorce.
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) said: This is the best statement that I have heard regarding this issue.
