bayhaqi:19923Abū ʿAbdullāh al-Ḥāfiẓ > Muḥammad b. Shuʿayb b. Jibrīl al-Adīb > al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī b. Shabīb al-Maʿmarī > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿĀmir b. Zurārah al-Ḥaḍramī > Ismāʿīl b. ʿAyyāsh > Ḥumayd b. Mālik al-Lakhmī > Makḥūl > Khālid b. Maʿdān > Muʿādh b. Jabal

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Mu'adh bin Jabal, when a man says to his wife, 'You are divorced if Allah wills,' then she is not divorced. And when he says to his slave, 'You are free if Allah wills,' then he is free." Humaid bin Malik narrated this hadith, but his credibility is unknown, and there is disagreement about the chain of narrators. It is said that this narration is from Mak'hool from Malik bin Yu'khmur from Mu'adh, and it is also said that it is from Mak'hool from Mu'adh, and this chain is broken.
