40. Chapter
٤٠۔ كِتَابُ الصَّدَاقِ
[Machine] In the man who marries a woman, he should be alone with her and not touch her, then he should divorce her, and she will only have half of the dowry, because Allah says {and if you divorce them before you have touched them and you have already specified for them an obligation, then give them half of what you specified} [Al-Baqarah 237].
فِي الرَّجُلِ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ يَخْلُو بِهَا فَلَا يَمَسَّهَا ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقُهَا لَيْسَ لَهَا إِلَّا نِصْفُ الصَّدَاقِ لِأَنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى يَقُولُ {وَإِنْ طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَمَسُّوهُنَّ وَقَدْ فَرَضْتُمْ لَهُنَّ فَرِيضَةً فَنِصْفُ مَا فَرَضْتُمْ} [البقرة 237]
[Machine] He used to say about a man who his wife was brought to him, then he divorced her, claiming that he did not touch her, while he must pay half the dowry.
أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي رَجُلٍ أُدْخِلَتْ عَلَيْهِ امْرَأَتُهُ ثُمَّ طَلَّقَهَا فَزَعَمَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَمَسَّهَا قَالَ عَلَيْهِ نِصْفُ الصَّدَاقِ
[Machine] In His saying, exalted be He: "And if you divorce them before you have touched them and you have already specified for them an obligation, then [give] half of what you specified" [Surah Al-Baqarah 2:237]. This refers to the man who marries a woman and has named a dowry for her, then divorces her before consummating the marriage. In this case, she is entitled to half of the dowry, and no more than that.
فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {وَإِنْ طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَمَسُّوهُنَّ وَقَدْ فَرَضْتُمْ لَهُنَّ فَرِيضَةً فَنِصْفُ مَا فَرَضْتُمْ} [البقرة 237] فَهُوَ الرَّجُلُ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ وَقَدْ سَمَّى لَهَا صَدَاقًا ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقُهَا مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا وَالْمَسُّ الْجِمَاعُ فَلَهَا نِصْفُ الصَّدَاقِ وَلَيْسَ لَهَا أَكْثَرُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ
[Machine] In His statement (When you marry believing women and then divorce them before touching them, they are not subject to waiting periods for you to count for them) [Al-Ahzab 49], this man marries a woman and then divorces her before touching her. So, when he divorces her once, she is completely free from him and there is no waiting period for her. She can marry whoever she wants, and then it is mentioned (Give them their due dowries as a duty) (meaning if he has given her a dowry, then she has nothing but half of it, and if he has not given her a dowry, then he is to provide for her according to his means, both reasonably and generously).
فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {إِذَا نَكَحْتُمُ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَمَسُّوهُنَّ فَمَا لَكُمْ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِنْ عِدَّةٍ تَعْتَدُّونَهَا} [الأحزاب 49] فَهَذَا الرَّجُلُ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقُهَا مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا فَإِذَا طَلَّقَهَا وَاحِدَةً بَانَتْ مِنْهُ وَلَا عِدَّةَ عَلَيْهَا تَزَوَّجُ مَنْ شَاءَتْ ثُمَّ قَالَ {مَتِّعُوهُنَّ وَسَرِّحُوهُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلًا} يَقُولُ إِنْ كَانَ سَمَّى لَهَا صَدَاقًا فَلَيْسَ لَهَا إِلَّا النِّصْفُ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ سَمَّى لَهَا صَدَاقًا مَتَّعَهَا عَلَى قَدْرِ يُسْرِهِ وَعُسْرِهِ وَهُوَ السَّرَاحُ الْجَمِيلُ
[Machine] "He approached her and she argued with him until Shurayh intervened. Shurayh, the right-hand man of 'Amr (I swear by Allah, there is no god but Him), patiently resolved the matter by ruling for her to receive half the dowry. Ath-Thawri narrated it from Isma'il, and Mu'ghirah narrated it from Ash-Sha'bi, who narrated it from Shurayh. It is reported that a man married a woman, closed the door, lowered the curtain, and then divorced her without touching her. Shurayh ruled that she should receive half the dowry. This was narrated to us by Abu Bakr al-Ardistan, who was informed by Abu Nasr al-Iraqi, who was informed by Sufyan al-Jawhari, who narrated it from 'Ali ibn al-Hasan, who narrated it from 'Abdullah ibn al-Walid, who narrated it from Sufyan."
أَنَّهُ قَدْ قَرُبَهَا فَخَاصَمَتْهُ إِلَى شُرَيْحٍ فَصَبَرَ شُرَيْحٌ يَمِينَ عَمْرٍو بِاللهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ مَا قَرُبِهَا وَقَضَى عَلَيْهِ بِنِصْفِ الصَّدَاقِ وَرَوَاهُ الثَّوْرِيُّ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَمُغِيرَةَ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ شُرَيْحٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً فَأَغْلَقَ الْبَابَ وَأَرْخَى السِّتْرَ ثُمَّ طَلَّقَهَا وَلَمْ يَمَسَّهَا فَقَضَى لَهَا شُرَيْحٌ بِنِصْفِ الصَّدَاقِ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْأَرْدَسْتَانِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو نَصْرٍ الْعِرَاقِيُّ أنبأ سُفْيَانُ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ثنا سُفْيَانُ فَذَكَرَهُ
[Machine] About Hasan ibn Salih, it was mentioned that there was a split between Sha'bi and Ibn Mas'ud regarding him.
عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ فَذَكَرَهُ وَفِيهِ انْقِطَاعٌ بَيْنَ الشَّعْبِيِّ وَبَيْنَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ
