Sahih al-Bukhari 5152 (Book 67, Hadith 87) #4933
Seeking Divorce of Sister is Not Permissible

SUMMARY: It is not permissible for a woman to ask for the divorce of her sister in order to have everything for herself, as she will only receive what has been predetermined for her.

Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "It is not lawful for a woman (at the time of wedding) to ask for the divorce of her sister (ie the other wife of her would-be husband) in order to have everything for herself, for she will take only what has been written for her".
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّاءَ ـ هُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ ـ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَحِلُّ لاِمْرَأَةٍ تَسْأَلُ طَلاَقَ أُخْتِهَا لِتَسْتَفْرِغَ صَحْفَتَهَا، فَإِنَّمَا لَهَا مَا قُدِّرَ لَهَا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that it is not permissible for a woman to ask her would-be husband to divorce his other wife in order to have everything for herself. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught that each person will only receive what has been predetermined or written down by Allah. This means that no one can take away from another person's share, even if they try their best. Everyone should be content with what they are given and trust in Allah's plan and wisdom.
