Sunan Ibn Majah 2051 (Book 10, Hadith 36) #31403
Divorce in Islam

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a man who divorced his wife irrevocably and then asked the Prophet (PBUH) for advice. The Prophet (PBUH) sent her back to him, indicating that one divorce was enough.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin 'Ali bin Yazid bin Rukanah, from his father, from his grandfather, that: he divorced his wife irrevocably, then he came to the Messenger of Allah and asked him. He said: "What did you mean by that?" He said: "One (divorce)". He said: "By Allah did you only mean one (divorce) thereby?" He said: "By Allah, I meant one". Then he sent her back to him. (Da'if)Muhammad bin Majah said: I heard Abul-Hasan ' Ali bin Muhammad Tanafisi saying: "How noble is this Hadith". Ibn Majah said: 'Abu 'Ubaid left it (ie, did not accept its narration) and Ahmad was fearful of it (ie, of narrating it)".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ الْبَتَّةَ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا أَرَدْتَ بِهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَاحِدَةً ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ آللَّهِ مَا أَرَدْتَ بِهَا إِلاَّ وَاحِدَةً قَالَ آللَّهِ مَا أَرَدْتُ بِهَا إِلاَّ وَاحِدَةً ‏.‏ قَالَ فَرَدَّهَا عَلَيْهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَاجَهْ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ عَلِيَّ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ الطَّنَافِسِيَّ يَقُولُ مَا أَشْرَفَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ مَاجَهْ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ تَرَكَهُ نَاحِيَةً وَأَحْمَدُ جَبُنَ عَنْهُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Seek advice from religious authorities before taking drastic measures such as divorce; Respect marriage; Make wise decisions; Take responsibility for one's actions; Give another chance if possible instead of divorcing immediately .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the importance of marriage in Islam and how it should be taken seriously. It also highlights the importance of seeking advice from the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) when faced with difficult decisions such as divorce. In this case, the man had divorced his wife irrevocably but upon consulting with the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), he was advised to take back his wife as one divorce was enough for them to part ways. This shows that even though divorce is allowed in Islam, it should not be taken lightly and all efforts must be made to save a marriage before resorting to it.
