Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Abd ar- Rahman ibn Awf divorced his wife, and gave her compensation in the form of a slave-girl.
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us that justice must prevail in all matters of life; even when dealing with difficult situations such as divorce or other forms of separation between two people who were once close. We must strive to ensure fairness in all our dealings so that no one feels wronged or taken advantage of by another person’s actions or decisions.
