Hadith record

1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from certain persons of our people who have said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘You must remain on your guard in the case of married women who are divorced against the Sunnah.’ I asked him (the Imam) that a man has divorced his wife and I am interested. He (the Imam) said, ‘Meet him after he divorces her and waiting period is complete with him then ask him, ‘Have you divorced so and so?’ If he said, ‘Yes, I have divorced her’, this is one divorce during a menses free period. From the time he has divorced her until waiting period is complete then you can marry and divorce has made them complete strangers to each other.’”
