Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Hafs bin al-Mughirah divorced his wife Fatimah. She came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her husband: "Give her provision (mut'ah)." He said: I have nothing with which to give her provision. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Provision must be given." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Give her provision, even if it is only half a sa' of dates." It is a well-known story that her marriage had been consummated.
