بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْأَقْرَاءِ وَعِدَّةِ الطَّلَاقِ وَطَلَاقِ الْحَائِضِChapter on What is Reported Regarding Menstruation, Waiting Period, and Divorce During Menstruation
Hadith 1191
عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللّٰهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ، وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَسُولَ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : ” مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا، ثُمَّ يُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ، ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ، ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ، ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدُ، وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللّٰهُ أَنْ يُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ.“
It is narrated from Nafi‘ that Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) divorced his wife during her menstrual period in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). He (peace be upon him) said: "Command him to take her back, then let her remain with him until she becomes pure from her menstruation, then menstruates again, then becomes pure. Then he has the choice: either to keep her or to divorce her. If he divorces her, he should not have intercourse with her during that period of purity. This is the waiting period in which Allah has commanded divorce to be given."
