(Book 29, Hadith 37) #36254
The Blessing of Marriage

SUMMARY: Divorcing a wife three times before consummating the marriage is not recommended and can lead to loss of blessings.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Muhammad ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Thawban that Muhammad ibn Iyas ibn al-Bukayr said, "A man divorced his wife three times before he had consummated the marriage, and then it seemed good to him to marry her. Therefore, he wanted an opinion, and I went with him to ask Abdullah ibn Abbas and Abu Hurayra on his behalf about it, and they said, 'We do not think that you should marry her until she has married another husband'. He protested that his divorcing her had been only once. Ibn Abbas said, 'You threw away what you had of blessing'. "
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِيَاسِ بْنِ الْبُكَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ طَلَّقَ رَجُلٌ امْرَأَتَهُ ثَلاَثًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ بِهَا ثُمَّ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يَنْكِحَهَا فَجَاءَ يَسْتَفْتِي فَذَهَبْتُ مَعَهُ أَسْأَلُ لَهُ فَسَأَلَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالاَ لاَ نَرَى أَنْ تَنْكِحَهَا حَتَّى تَنْكِحَ زَوْجًا غَيْرَكَ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَإِنَّمَا طَلاَقِي إِيَّاهَا وَاحِدَةٌ ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ إِنَّكَ أَرْسَلْتَ مِنْ يَدِكَ مَا كَانَ لَكَ مِنْ فَضْلٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Take divorce seriously
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the importance of marriage and how it can be a blessing from Allah. It also warns against divorcing one's wife multiple times before consummating the marriage as this could lead to loss of blessings. Abdullah ibn Abbas and Abu Hurayra both advised that if a man has divorced his wife three times before consummation, he should not marry her again until she has married another husband first. This shows that divorce should be taken seriously and used only when absolutely necessary in order to preserve the blessing of marriage.
