Sunan Abi Dawud 2176 (Book 13, Hadith 2) #22467
Destiny and Divorce

SUMMARY: A woman should not ask for her sister's divorce in order to marry the same man. Everyone will get what is destined for them.

Abu Hurairah reported the Apostle of Allaah as saying "A woman should not ask for the divorce of her sister to make her bowl vacant for her and to marry him. She will have what is decreed for her".
حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لاَ تَسْأَلِ الْمَرْأَةُ طَلاَقَ أُخْتِهَا لِتَسْتَفْرِغَ صَحْفَتَهَا وَلْتَنْكِحْ فَإِنَّمَا لَهَا مَا قُدِّرَ لَهَا

This hadith is about destiny and divorce, which was narrated by Abu Hurairah. It teaches us that a woman should not ask for her sister's divorce in order to marry the same man, as everyone will get what is destined for them. The Arabic terms used in this hadith are talaaq (تلاق، طلاق) which means 'divorce' and qadar (قدر، قدر) which means 'destiny'. This hadith encourages us to accept our destiny with patience and trust that Allah has planned something better for us than we can imagine. It also teaches us that it is wrong to try to manipulate someone else's life or marriage just so we can benefit from it ourselves. We must respect other people's decisions and be content with our own lives instead of trying to interfere with others'.
