Divorce in Islam

SUMMARY: This hadith explains the process of divorce as prescribed by Allah, which is to be done twice and with kindness.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that he divorced his wife when she was menstruating'.Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, mentioned that to the Prophet and he said: "Tell him to take her back until she menstruates again, then when she becomes pure, if he wants he may divorce her and if he wants he may keep her. This is the divorce that Allah has enjoined. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, says: 'The divorce is twice, after that, either you retain her on reasonable terms or release her with kindness'."
حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، وَيَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، وَعُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالُوا إِنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ عُمَرُ رضى الله عنه لِلنَّبِيِّ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَهَا وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَهَا فَإِنَّهُ الطَّلاَقُ الَّذِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ تَعَالَى ‏{‏ فَطَلِّقُوهُنَّ لِعِدَّتِهِنَّ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the process of divorce as prescribed by Allah. According to this hadith, if a man wishes to divorce his wife, he must do it twice and with kindness. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that if a man divorces his wife while she is menstruating, he should take her back until she becomes pure again and then decide whether or not he wants to keep her or let her go. This is the type of divorce that has been enjoined upon us by Allah Almighty who says in the Quran “The divorce is twice, after that either you retain her on reasonable terms or release her with kindness”(2:229).

We should also remember to treat each other kindly even during difficult times such as these.
