كتاب الطلاقBook: On the Explanation of Divorce
بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي طَلَاقِ الْعَبْدِChapter on What is Reported Regarding Divorce of a Slave
Hadith 1188
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ، كَانَ يَقُولُ : " إِذَا طَلَّقَ الْعَبْدُ امْرَأَتَهُ تَطْلِيقَتَيْنِ، فَقَدْ حَرُمَتْ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَنْكِحَ زَوْجًا غَيْرَهُ، حُرَّةً كَانَتْ أَوْ أَمَةً، وَعِدَّةُ الْحُرَّةِ ثَلَاثُ حِيَضٍ، وَعِدَّةُ الْأَمَةِ حَيْضَتَانِ "
It is narrated from Nafi‘ that Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) used to say: When a slave gives his wife two divorces, she becomes unlawful for him until she marries another husband, whether his wife is a slave woman or free. The waiting period (‘iddah) of a free woman is three menstrual cycles, and the waiting period of a slave woman is two menstrual cycles.
