[Machine] They made it one during the time of the Prophet ﷺ, Abu Bakr, and the early years of Umar's caliphate. Ibn Abbas said, "Indeed, when a man divorced his wife three times before having sexual intercourse with her, they used to consider it one divorce during the time of the Prophet ﷺ, Abu Bakr, and the early years of Umar's caliphate. But when people started increasing in this practice, he said, 'Allow them to be divorced three times.' The sheikh said, 'It is similar to the case where a man intends to divorce his wife three times in succession. Jabir ibn Yazid narrated from Sha'bi, who narrated from Ibn Abbas about a man who divorced his wife three times before having sexual intercourse with her. He said, 'There was a knot in his hand that he would send it to her all at once. But if it was divorced three times in succession, then it is nothing.' Sufyan Ath-Thawri said, 'In succession means that you are divorced, you are divorced, and you are divorced. Because the first one is clear, but the second and third have no effect.' And it has been narrated from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, that it does not indicate anything."
