‏الطلاق (The Book of Divorce)
CHAPTER: IT IS FORBIDDEN TO DIVORCE THE WOMAN DURING HER MENSES  

No. 3473

Ibn 'Umar (Allaah be pleased with them) reported that he divorced his wife while she was menstruating during the lifetime of Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam). 'Umar b. Khattib (Allaah be pleased with him) asked Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) about it, whereupon Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Command him ('Abdullah b. 'Umar) to take her back (and keep her) and pronounce divorce when she is purified and she again enters the period of menstruation and she is again purified (after passing the period of menses), and then if he so desires he may keep her and if he desires divorce her (finally) before touching her (without having an intercourse with her), for that is the period of waiting ('ldda) which God, the Exalted and Glorious, has commanded for the divorce of women.

No. 3474

Abdullah (b. 'Umar) reported that he divorced a wife of his with the pronouncement of one divorce during the period of menstruation. Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) commanded him to take her back and keep her until she was purified, and then she entered the period of menses in his (house) for the second time. And he should wait until she was purified of her menses. And then if he would decide to divorce her, he should do so when she was purified before having a sexual intercourse with her; for that was the 'Idda which Allaah had commanded for the divorce of women. Ibn Rumh in his narration made this addition: When 'Abdullah was asked about it, he said to one of them: If you have divorced your wife with one pronouncement or two (then you can take her back), for Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) commanded me to do it; but if you have divorced her with three pronouncements, then she is forbidden for you until she married another husband, and you disobeyed Allaah in regard to the divorce of your wife what He had commanded you. (Muslim said: The word" one divorce" used by Laith is good.)

No. 3475

Ibn Umar (Allaah be pleased with them) reported: I divorced my wife during the lifetime of Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) when she was in the state of menses.

Then (let her) enter the period of second menses, and when she is purified, then divorce her (finally) before having a sexual intercourse with her, or retain her (finally). That is the 'Idda (the prescribed period) which Allaah commanded (to be kept in view) while divorcing the women. 'Ubaidullah reported: I said to Nafi': What became of that divorce (pronounced within 'Idda)? He said: It was as one which she counted.
