Chapter: A man who divorces his four wives with an irrevocable divorce may marry four others in their place
Bayhaqi 13850 — A man who divorces his four wives with an irrevocable
قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: لِأَنَّهُ لَا زَوْجَ لَهُ وَلَا عِدَّةَ عَلَيْهِ وَاحْتَجَّ عَلَى انْقِطَاعِ الزَّوْجِيَّةِ بِانْقِطَاعِ أَحْكَامِهَا مِنَ الْإِيلَاءِ وَالظِّهَارِ وَاللِّعَانِ وَالْمِيرَاثِ وَغَيْرِ ذَلِكَ قَالَ: وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَسَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، وَعُرْوَةَ وَأَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ دَارِ السُّنَّةِ وَحَرَّمَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Because he now has no wife, and no waiting period (iddah) is binding on him."
And he argued that the marital bond has ended from the fact that its rulings, namely ila', zihar, li'an, inheritance and so on, come to an end.
He said: "This is the view of al-Qasim bin Muhammad, Salim bin Abdullah, Urwah (may Allah have mercy on them) and most of the people of knowledge of the Abode of the Sunnah (Madinah), and Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has forbidden."

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْمِهْرَجَانِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمُزَكِّي، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْبُوشَنْجِيُّ، ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ، وَالْقَاسِمَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ كَانَا يَقُولَانِ " فِي الرَّجُلِ تَكُونُ عِنْدَهُ أَرْبَعُ نِسْوَةٍ فَيُطَلِّقُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْبَتَّةَ، أَنَّهُ يَتَزَوَّجُ إِذَا شَاءَ، وَلَا يَنْتَظِرُ حَتَّى تَمْضِيَ عِدَّتُهَا ".
Urwah bin al-Zubayr and al-Qasim bin Muhammad (may Allah have mercy on them both) both said, concerning a man who has four wives and divorces one of them irrevocably, that he may marry whenever he wishes and need not wait for her waiting period to pass.
