´It was narrated that Abu Al-Hasan, the freed slave of Banu Nawfal, said:` "Ibn 'Abbas was asked about a slave who divorced his wife twice, then they were set free; could he marry her? He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'From whom (did you hear that)?' He said: 'The Messenger of Allah issued a Fatwa to that effect.'" (One of the narrators) 'Abdur-Razzaq said: "Ibn Al-Mubarak said to Ma'mar: 'Which Al-Hasan is this? He has taken on a heavy burden.'"

Brief Explanation
1؎: If a slave gives two divorces, the woman becomes separated (bainah). After becoming separated (bainah), until the woman marries someone else and is separated from him either through divorce or death, she cannot remarry her first husband. But here, after both become free, permission is being given for marriage without halalah. Now, if this narration—Allah forbid—is incorrect, then the burden of all such marriages will fall upon this narrator Hasan, and it is as if he will be crushed under a great rock.
