[Machine] "He divorced his wife, Al-Batta, and then went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him about it. The Prophet ﷺ asked him, 'What did you intend?' He replied, 'One divorce.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Did you intend by the name of Allah?' He replied, 'Yes, by the name of Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Then that is what you have intended.'"  

الدارمي:٢٣١٨ – حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ عَنْ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ قَالَ بَلَغَنِي حَدِيثٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ وَهُوَ فِي قَرْيَةٍ لَهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ؟ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي

أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ الْبَتَّةَ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «مَا أَرَدْتَ؟» فَقَالَ وَاحِدَةً قَالَ «آللَّهِ؟» قَالَ آللَّهِ قَالَ هُوَ مَا نَوَيْتَ

What did you intend? He said: A single utterance of divorce. He said: Do you swear by Allah? He replied: I swear by Allah. He said: It stands as you intended. Abu Dawud said: This tradition is sounder than that of Ibn Juraij that Rukanah divorced his wife by three pronouncements, for they are the members of his family and they are more aware for him. The tradition of Ibn Juraij has been narrated by some children of Abu Rafi' from 'Ikrimah on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas.
