[Machine] I divorced my wife during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while she was in her menstrual period. 'Umar mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he became angry with me because of that. He said to me, "Take her back and keep her until she becomes pure from her menses and then becomes pure from any bleeding, then if you wish, divorce her before having any sexual relation with her, that will be the divorce done to her at her waiting period." As Allah commanded. Abdullah said: "So I took her back, and I considered that as one divorce that I had divorced her with." And Abu 'Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us, and Abu al-Walid informed me, from Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Zuhair, from Ishaq bin Mansur, from Yazid bin 'Abdul-Rabbi, from Muhammad bin Harb, whose chain of narration matches Abu Dawud's.

"I divorced my wife during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah while she was menstruating. 'Umar mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah, and the Messenger of Allah got angry about that and said: 'Let him take her back, then keep her until she has menstruated again and become pure again. Then if he wants to divorce her when she is pure and before he touches her (has intercourse with her), then that is divorce at the prescribed time as Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has revealed.'" 'Abdullah bin 'Umar said: "So I took her back, but I still counted the divorce that I had issued to her."

I divorced my wife while she was in the state of menses. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) made mention of it to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and he was enraged and he said: Command him to take her back until she enters the second ensuing menses other than the one in which he divorced her and in case he deems proper to divorce her, he should pronounce divorce (finally) before touching her (in the period) when she is purified of her menses, and that is the prescribed period in regard to divorce as Allah has commanded. 'Abdullah made a pronouncement of one divorce and it was counted in case of divorce. 'Abdullah took her back as Messenger of Allah ﷺ had commanded him. (Using translation from Muslim 1471f)
