[Machine] The man gave his wife a choice, so she chose her husband. If she chose herself, it would be a clear divorce and he would be the one who initiates the divorce. Zaid bin Thabit said: If she chooses herself, it counts as three divorces. Abdullah bin Mas'ood said: If a man gives his wife a choice and she chooses her husband, it does not mean anything. But if she chooses herself, it is a divorce and he still has the right to take her back. The statement of Abdullah bin Mas'ood is in agreement with the statement of Umar regarding "al-Khiyar". We say that his agreement is based on the authentic Sunnah narrated from Aisha and narrated from the Prophet ﷺ regarding "al-Takhyeer", and his agreement indicates the meaning of the well-known Sunnah narrated from Rukana, who narrated from the Prophet ﷺ regarding "al-Batta", that it is revocable if he wants it. As for Ali, there is a difference in the narration from him on this matter, but the most famous narration is what we have mentioned, and likewise.  

خَيَّرَ الرَّجُلُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَاخْتَارَتْ زَوْجَهَا فَهِيَ تَطْلِيقَةٌ وَهُوَ أَمْلَكُ بِرَجْعَتِهَا وَإِنِ اخْتَارَتْ نَفْسَهَا فَتَطْلِيقَةٌ بَائِنَةٌ وَهُوَ خَاطِبٌ مِنَ الْخُطَّابِ قَالَ وَكَانَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ ؓ يَقُولُ إِنِ اخْتَارَتْ نَفْسَهَا فَهِيَ ثَلَاثٌ قَالَ وَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ يَقُولُ إِذَا خَيَّرَ الرَّجُلُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَاخْتَارَتْ زَوْجَهَا فَلَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ وَإِنِ اخْتَارَتْ نَفْسَهَا فَهِيَ تَطْلِيقَةٌ وَهُوَ أَمْلَكُ بِرَجْعَتِهَا قَوْلُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ مُوَافِقٌ لِقَوْلِ عُمَرَ ؓ فِي الْخِيَارِ وَبِهِ نَقُولُ لِمُوَافَقَتِهِ السُّنَّةَ الثَّابِتَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي التَّخْيِيرِ وَمُوَافَقَتِهِ مَعْنَى السُّنَّةِ الْمَشْهُورَةِ عَنْ رُكَانَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الْبَتَّةِ أَنَّهَا رَجْعِيَّةٌ إِذَا أَرَادَ بِهَا وَاحِدَةً وَأَمَّا عَلِيٌّ ؓ فَقَدِ اخْتَلَفَتِ الرِّوَايَةُ عَنْهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَأَشْهَرُهَا مَا رَوَيْنَا وَكَذَلِكَ
