Sahih al-Bukhari 2639 (Book 52, Hadith 3) #2525
Remarriage After Divorce

SUMMARY: A woman who was divorced by her husband and remarried another man, came to the Prophet (ﷺ) asking if she could remarry her first husband. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked her if she had a complete sexual relation with her present husband.

Narrated Aisha: The wife of Rifa'a Al-Qurazi came to the Prophet and said, "I was Rifa'a's wife, but he divorced me and it was a final irrevocable divorce. Then I married 'Abdur-Rahman bin Az-Zubair but he is impotent". The Prophet asked her 'Do you want to remarry Rifa'a? You cannot unless you had a complete sexual relation with your present husband". Abu Bakr was sitting with Allah's Messenger and Khalid bin Sa'id bin Al-'As was at the door waiting to be admitted. He said, "O Abu Bakr! Do you hear what this (woman) is revealing frankly before the Prophet ?"
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةُ رِفَاعَةَ الْقُرَظِيِّ النَّبِيَّ فَقَالَتْ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ رِفَاعَةَ فَطَلَّقَنِي فَأَبَتَّ طَلاَقِي، فَتَزَوَّجْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ الزَّبِيرِ، إِنَّمَا مَعَهُ مِثْلُ هُدْبَةِ الثَّوْبِ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ أَتُرِيدِينَ أَنْ تَرْجِعِي إِلَى رِفَاعَةَ لاَ حَتَّى تَذُوقِي عُسَيْلَتَهُ وَيَذُوقَ عُسَيْلَتَكِ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ جَالِسٌ عِنْدَهُ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ بِالْبَابِ يَنْتَظِرُ أَنْ يُؤْذَنَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ، أَلاَ تَسْمَعُ إِلَى هَذِهِ مَا تَجْهَرُ بِهِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a woman who was divorced by her first husband and then married another man. She came to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ asking if she could remarry her first husband, as it was an irrevocable divorce. The Prophet ﷺ asked if she had a complete sexual relation with the second man, which would make it impossible for them to marry again according to Islamic law. This hadith teaches us that marriage is taken seriously in Islam and should not be entered into lightly or without thought of its consequences. It also teaches us that divorce should be avoided whenever possible as it can have serious implications on both parties involved in the marriage contract. Furthermore, this hadith reminds us of the importance of fulfilling our marital obligations towards our spouses even when we are facing difficult circumstances such as impotence or other issues that may arise during marriage.
