[Machine] In his saying "and do not harm them" [Al-Baqarah 2:231], harm here means when a man divorces his wife three times, then takes her back before the end of the waiting period (during which the woman cannot remarry), and then divorces her again, and repeats this two more times, causing harm to the woman in doing so.  

فِي قَوْلِهِ {وَلَا تُمْسِكُوهُنَّ ضِرَارًا} [البقرة 231] قَالَ الضِّرَارُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَ الرَّجُلُ الْمَرْأَةَ تَطْلِيقَةً ثُمَّ يُرَاجِعَهَا عِنْدَ آخِرِ يَوْمٍ يَبْقَى مِنَ الْأَقْرَاءِ ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقَهَا ثُمَّ يُرَاجِعَهَا عِنْدَ آخِرِ يَوْمٍ يَبْقَى مِنَ الْأَقْرَاءِ يُضَارُّهَا بِذَلِكَ  

[Machine] About this verse {And do not take them as a means of hurting so that you may transgress} [Al-Baqarah 231], Al-Hasan said: It refers to the man who divorces his wife and when her waiting period is about to end, he remarries her, and when her waiting period is about to end again, he remarries her again. He intends to prolong her waiting period. And we have narrated the meaning of this from Masrouq ibn Al-Ajda'.  

عَنِ الْحَسَنِ فِي هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ 20 {وَلَا تُمْسِكُوهُنَّ ضِرَارًا لِتَعْتَدُوا} [البقرة 231] قَالَ هُوَ الرَّجُلُ يُطَلِّقُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَإِذَا أَرَادَتْ أَنْ تَنْقَضِيَ عِدَّتُهَا أَشْهَدَ عَلَى رَجْعَتِهَا ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقُهَا فَإِذَا أَرَادَتْ أَنْ تَنْقَضِيَ عِدَّتُهَا أَشْهَدَ عَلَى رَجْعَتِهَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُطَوِّلَ عَلَيْهَا وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ مَسْرُوقِ بْنِ الْأَجْدَعِ مَعْنَى هَذَا
