[Machine] And from some of the companions of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , he mentioned the interpretation of his statement "divorce twice." He said, "It refers to the waiting period in which a man has the option to reconcile during it. So if he divorces once or twice, either he holds onto her and reconciles in a good manner, or he remains silent until her waiting period expires, in which case she has more right over herself."  

وَعَنْ نَاسٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ التَّفْسِيرَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ الطَّلَاقُ مَرَّتَانِ قَالَ وَهُوَ الْمِيقَاتُ الَّذِي يَكُونُ عَلَيْهَا فِيهِ الرَّجْعَةُ فَإِذَا طَلَّقَ وَاحِدَةً أَوْ ثِنْتَيْنِ فَإِمَّا أَنْ يُمْسِكَ وَيُرَاجِعَ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَإِمَّا يَسْكُتَ عَنْهَا حَتَّى تَنْقَضِيَ عِدَّتُهَا فَتَكُونَ أَحَقَّ بِنَفْسِهَا
