Bayhaqi 15190 — The marriage of a woman divorced three times
قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: " قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فِي الطَّلْقَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ: {فَإِنْ طَلَّقَهَا فَلَا تَحِلُّ لَهُ مِنْ بَعْدُ حَتَّى تَنْكِحَ زَوْجًا غَيْرَهُ} [البقرة: 230]، فَاحْتَمَلَتِ الْآيَةُ حَتَّى يُجَامِعَهَا زَوْجٌ غَيْرُهُ وَدَلَّتْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ السُّنَّةُ فَكَانَ أَوْلَى الْمَعَانِي بِكِتَابِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مَا دَلَّتْ عَلَيْهِ سُنَّةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ".
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, said concerning the third divorce: 'And if he divorces her (a third time), then she is not lawful to him afterwards until she marries a husband other than him.' [Surah al-Baqarah: 230]
So the verse carried the possibility that (what is meant is): until a husband other than him has intercourse with her; and the Sunnah indicated this. Therefore, the most fitting of the meanings of the Book of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, is the meaning indicated by the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)."

Urwah narrates from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the wife of Rifa'ah al-Qurazi came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "I was married to Rifa'ah al-Qurazi, and he gave me three divorces. I then married Abd al-Rahman bin al-Zubayr, and what he has is like the fringe of a garment." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled and said: "Do you intend to go back to Rifa'ah? That cannot be until you have intercourse with him and he takes pleasure in you." Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) was with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and Sayyiduna Khalid bin Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) was standing at the door waiting for permission. He called out to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him)! Are you listening? What is this woman openly saying in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?"
(b) In the narration of al-Za'farani it is reported from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the wife of Rifa'ah al-Qurazi came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); then he mentioned the hadith in the same way, up to the words: "Until he takes pleasure in you and you have intercourse with him."
