(Book 29, Hadith 48) #36264
Divorce of Free Wife Twice Forbidden

SUMMARY: Divorcing a free wife twice is not allowed and it is considered haram.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al- Musayyab that Nufay, a mukatab of Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, divorced his free wife twice, so he asked Uthman ibn Affan for an opinion, and he said, "She is haram for you".
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ نُفَيْعًا، مُكَاتَبًا كَانَ لأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَةً حُرَّةً تَطْلِيقَتَيْنِ فَاسْتَفْتَى عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ فَقَالَ حَرُمَتْ عَلَيْكَ

This hadith discusses the issue of divorce in Islam. It states that if a man divorces his free wife twice then it is considered haram for him to remarry her again. This hadith was narrated by Yahya from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al-Musayyab who said that Nufay asked Uthman bin Affan for an opinion on this matter and he said that she was haram for him to remarry her again after divorcing her twice. The main idea behind this hadith is that Islam does not allow a man to divorce his free wife more than once as it would be unfair to the woman and would cause harm to her emotionally and financially. This hadith also teaches us about the importance of seeking advice from knowledgeable people when making important decisions in life such as marriage or divorce.
