Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar said, "When a man makes a vow to abstain from intercourse with his wife and four months have passed he must declare his intent and either he is divorced or he revokes his vow. Divorce does not occur until four months have passed and he continues to abstain."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ آلَى مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا مَضَتِ الأَرْبَعَةُ الأَشْهُرِ وُقِفَ حَتَّى يُطَلِّقَ أَوْ يَفِيءَ وَلاَ يَقَعُ عَلَيْهِ طَلاَقٌ إِذَا مَضَتِ الأَرْبَعَةُ الأَشْهُرِ حَتَّى يُوقَفَ  

[Machine] "He used to say that if a man has sexual intercourse with his wife, then after the passing of four months he must either divorce her or satisfy her, and if he does not, then divorce will not occur until the passing of four months and he should not touch her anymore."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ آلَى مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ فَإِذَا مَضَتِ الْأَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وُقِفَ حَتَّى يُطَلِّقَ أَوْ يُفِيءَ وَلَا يَقَعُ عَلَيْهَا الطَّلَاقُ إِذَا مَضَتِ الْأَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ حَتَّى يُوقَفَ  

"عَنْ عَلِىٍّ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ: إِذَا آلَى الرَّجُلُ مِنْ امْرَأَتِهِ لَمْ يَقَعْ عَلَيْهَا طَلَاقٌ، وَإنْ مَضَتْ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ حَتَّى يُوقَفَ، فإمَّا أَنْ يُطلِّق، وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَفِئَ".
