"عَنِ ابْنِ عُمرَ أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرأَتَهُ وَهِىَ حَائِضٌ، فَاسْتَفْتَى عُمَرُ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ فَقَالَ: مُرْ عَبْدَ الله فَلْيُرَاجِعهَا ثُم ليُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ، ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ فَتَطْهُرَ، فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فَليُطَلِّقَهَا طَاهِرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمسَّهَا، فَتِلْكَ الْعِدّةُ الَّتِى أَمَرَ الله أَنْ يُطلّقَ لَهَا النَّسَاء".

Collected by Bukhārī, Muslim, Abū Dāwūd, Nasāʾī, Ibn Mājah, Dārimī, Aḥmad, Mālik, Ibn Ḥibbān, Nasāʾī's Kubrá, BayhaqīThat ʿAbdullah bin ʿUmar told him that he had divorced his wife while she was in her menses so ʿUmar informed Messenger of Allah ﷺ of that. Messenger of Allah ﷺ became very angry at that and said, "(Ibn ʿUmar must return her to his house and keep her as his wife till she becomes clean and then menstruates and becomes clean again, whereupon, if he wishes to divorce her, he may do so while she is still clean and before having any sexual relations with her, for that is the legally prescribed period for divorce as Allah has ordered."
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَتَغَيَّظَ فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ يُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ فَتَطْهُرَ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا طَاهِرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ
that he had divorced his wife while she was menstruating during the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ . ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ about that. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Order him (your son) to take her back and keep her till she is clean and then to wait till she gets her next period and becomes clean again, whereupon, if he wishes to keep her, he can do so, and if he wishes to divorce her he can divorce her before having sexual intercourse with her; and that is the prescribed period which Allah has fixed for the women meant to be divorced."
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لِيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
I asked Ibn ʿUmar,"(What is said regarding) a man divorces his wife during her period?" He said, "Do you know Ibn ʿUmar? Ibn ʿUmar divorced his wife while she was menstruating. ʿUmar then went to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned that to him. The Prophet ﷺ ordered him to take her back and when she became clean, he could divorce her if he wanted." I asked (Ibn ʿUmar), "Was that divorce counted as one legal divorce?" He said, "If one becomes helpless and foolish (will he be excused? Of course not). "
قُلْتُ لاِبْنِ عُمَرَ رَجُلٌ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فَقَالَ تَعْرِفُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ إِنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فَأَتَى عُمَرُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا قُلْتُ فَهَلْ عَدَّ ذَلِكَ طَلاَقًا قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ عَجَزَ وَاسْتَحْمَقَ
That he had divorced his wife during her menses. ʿUmar mentioned that to the Prophet. Allah's Apostle became angry and said, "He must take her back (his wife) and keep her with him till she becomes clean from her menses and then to wait till she gets her next period and becomes clean again from it and only then, if he wants to divorce her, he may do so."
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ عُمَرُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَتَغَيَّظَ فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لْيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ فَتَطْهُرَ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا
Command him ('Abdullah b. 'Umar) to take her back (and keep her) and pronounce divorce when she is purified and she again enters the period of menstruation and she is again purified (after passing the period of menses), and then if he so desires he may keep her and if he desires divorce her (finally) before touching her (without having an intercourse with her), for that is the period of waiting ('ldda) which God, the Exalted and Glorious, has commanded for the divorce of women.
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لْيَتْرُكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ ﷻ أَنْ يُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
I divorced my wife during the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ when she was in the state of menses. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) made a mention of it to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, whereupon he said: Command him to take her back and leave her (in that state) until she is purified. Then (let her) enter the period of second menses, and when she is purified, then divorce her (finally) before having a sexual intercourse with her, or retain her (finally). That is the 'Idda (the prescribed period) which Allah commanded (to be kept in view) while divorcing the women. 'Ubaidullah reported: I said to Nafi': What became of that divorce (pronounced within 'Idda)? He said: It was as one which she counted.
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لْيَدَعْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا أَوْ يُمْسِكْهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ قُلْتُ لِنَافِعٍ مَا صَنَعَتِ التَّطْلِيقَةُ قَالَ وَاحِدَةٌ اعْتَدَّ بِهَا
I divorced my wife while she was in the state of menses. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) made mention of it to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and he was enraged and he said: Command him to take her back until she enters the second ensuing menses other than the one in which he divorced her and in case he deems proper to divorce her, he should pronounce divorce (finally) before touching her (in the period) when she is purified of her menses, and that is the prescribed period in regard to divorce as Allah has commanded. 'Abdullah made a pronouncement of one divorce and it was counted in case of divorce. 'Abdullah took her back as Messenger of Allah ﷺ had commanded him.
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَتَغَيَّظَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى مُسْتَقْبَلَةً سِوَى حَيْضَتِهَا الَّتِي طَلَّقَهَا فِيهَا فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا طَاهِرًا مِنْ حَيْضَتِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا فَذَلِكَ الطَّلاَقُ لِلْعِدَّةِ كَمَا أَمَرَ اللَّهُ وَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ طَلَّقَهَا تَطْلِيقَةً وَاحِدَةً فَحُسِبَتْ مِنْ طَلاَقِهَا وَرَاجَعَهَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ
Command him to take her back until she is pure and then she enters the second menses and then becomes pure. Then either divorce her (finally) or retain her.
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهْىَ حَائِضٌ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ يُطَلِّقَ بَعْدُ أَوْ يُمْسِكَ
‘Abd Allah bin Umar said that he divorced his wife while she was menstruating during the time of the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ. So ‘Umar bin Al Khattab asked the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ about this matter. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ said “Order him, he must take her back and keep her back till she is purified, then has another menstrual period and is purified. Thereafter if he desires he may divorce her before having intercourse with her, for that is the period of waiting which Allaah the Glorified has commanded for the divorce of women.”
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لْيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
Ibn ‘Umar said that he divorced his wife while she was menstruating. ‘Umar mentioned the matter to the Prophet ﷺ. He (the Prophet) said “Order him, he must take her back and divorce her when she is purified (from menstrual discharge) or she is pregnant.”
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لْيُطَلِّقْهَا إِذَا طَهُرَتْ أَوْ وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ
‘Abd Allah (bin Umar) said that he divorced his wife while she was menstruating. ‘Umar mentioned the matter to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ became angry and said “Command him, he must take her back and keep her back till she is purified, then has another menstrual period and is purified. Then if he desires he may divorce her during the period of purity before he has intercourse with her. This is the divorce for waiting period as commanded by Allaah, the Exalted.
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ ﷺ فَتَغَيَّظَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لْيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ فَتَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَهَا طَاهِرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَذَلِكَ الطَّلاَقُ لِلْعِدَّةِ كَمَا أَمَرَ اللَّهُ ﷻ
"Abdullah has divorced his wife while she was menstruating." He said: "Tell 'Abdullah to take her back, then leave her until she becomes pure from this menstrual period, then menstruates again, then when she becomes pure again, if he wishes he may separate from her before having intercourse with her, or if he wishes he may keep her. This is the time when Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has stated that women may be divorced."
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَاسْتَفْتَى عُمَرُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَقَالَ مُرْ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ يَدَعْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ مِنْ حَيْضَتِهَا هَذِهِ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَإِنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُفَارِقْهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا وَإِنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُمْسِكْهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ ﷻ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
"Tell him to take her back and keep her until she becomes pure, then menstruates again and becomes pure again. Then if he wishes he may keep her, or if he wishes, he may divorce her before he touches (has intercourse with) her. This is the time when Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has stated that women may be divorced."
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لْيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ ﷻ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
"I divorced my wife during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah while she was menstruating. 'Umar mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah, and the Messenger of Allah got angry about that and said: 'Let him take her back, then keep her until she has menstruated again and become pure again. Then if he wants to divorce her when she is pure and before he touches her (has intercourse with her), then that is divorce at the prescribed time as Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has revealed.'" 'Abdullah bin 'Umar said: "So I took her back, but I still counted the divorce that I had issued to her."
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي فِي حَيَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَتَغَيَّظَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لِيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ يُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً وَتَطْهُرَ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا طَاهِرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا فَذَاكَ الطَّلاَقُ لِلْعِدَّةِ كَمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَرَاجَعْتُهَا وَحَسِبْتُ لَهَا التَّطْلِيقَةَ الَّتِي طَلَّقْتُهَا
"Tell 'Abdullah to take her back, then, when she has performed Ghusl, let him leave her alone, until she menstruates (again). Then, when she performs Ghusl following that second period, he should not touch her until he divorces her. And if he wants to keep her, then let him keep her. That is the time when Allah has stated that women may be divorced."
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ تَطْلِيقَةً فَانْطَلَقَ عُمَرُ فَأَخْبَرَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مُرْ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا فَإِذَا اغْتَسَلَتْ فَلْيَتْرُكْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ فَإِذَا اغْتَسَلَتْ مِنْ حَيْضَتِهَا الأُخْرَى فَلاَ يَمَسَّهَا حَتَّى يُطَلِّقَهَا فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يُمْسِكَهَا فَلْيُمْسِكْهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ ﷻ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
"Tell him to take her back until she menstruates again, then when she becomes pure, if he wants he may divorce her and if he wants he may keep her. This is the divorce that Allah has enjoined. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, says: 'The divorce is twice, after that, either you retain her on reasonable terms or release her with kindness.'"

[AI] He divorced his wife while she was menstruating, and he mentioned that to Umar. Umar then went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Let him keep her until she menstruates again, other than this menstruation, then she should purify herself. If it appears to him that he should divorce her, then he should divorce her as Allah commanded. And if it appears to him that he should keep her, then he should keep her."

[AI] So 'Umar mentioned that to 'Umar, and 'Umar went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Let him keep her until she menstruates, other than this menstruation, then she purifies herself. If it appears to him that he should divorce her, then let him divorce her as Allah the Mighty and Majestic has commanded him. And if it appears to him that he should keep her, then let him keep her."
فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَانْطَلَقَ عُمَرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ غَيْرَ هَذِهِ الْحَيْضَةِ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللهُ ﷻ وَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُمْسِكَهَا فَلْيُمْسِكْهَا
"I divorced my wife when she was menstruating. 'Umar mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah and he said: 'Tell him to take her back until she becomes pure (i.e., her period ends), then she has her period (again), then she becomes pure (again), then if he wishes he may divorce her before having sexual relations with her, and if he wishes he may keep her. This is the waiting period that Allah has enjoined.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2019)
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ يُطَلِّقُهَا إِنْ شَاءَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا أَوْ يُمْسِكَهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللهُ أَنْتُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
I divorced my wife while she was in the state of menses. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) made mention of it to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and he was enraged and he said: Command him to take her back until she enters the second ensuing menses other than the one in which he divorced her and in case he deems proper to divorce her, he should pronounce divorce (finally) before touching her (in the period) when she is purified of her menses, and that is the prescribed period in regard to divorce as Allah has commanded. 'Abdullah made a pronouncement of one divorce and it was counted in case of divorce. 'Abdullah took her back as Messenger of Allah ﷺ had commanded him. (Using translation from Muslim 1471f)
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ عُمَرُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَتَغَيَّظَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً مُسْتَقْبَلَةً سِوَى حَيْضَتِهَا الَّتِي طَلَّقَهَا فِيهَا فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا طَاهِرًا مِنْ حَيْضِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا فَذَلِكَ الطَّلَاقُ لِلْعِدَّةِ كَمَا أَمَرَ اللهُ تَعَالَى وَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ طَلَّقَهَا تَطْلِيقَةً فَحُسِبَتْ مِنْ طَلَاقِهَا وَرَاجَعَهَا عَبْدُ اللهِ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar divorced his wife while she was menstruating in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ Umar ibn al-Khattab asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Go and tell him to take her back and keep her until she is purified and then has a period and then is purified. Then if he wishes, he an keep her, and if he wishes he should divorce her before he has intercourse with her. That is the idda which Allah has commanded for women who are divorced."
أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ يُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ
ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ لِمَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا فِي طُهْرِهَا لَا فِي حَيْضِهَا
"Abdullah has divorced his wife while she was menstruating." He said: "Tell 'Abdullah to take her back, then leave her until she becomes pure from this menstrual period, then menstruates again, then when she becomes pure again, if he wishes he may separate from her before having intercourse with her, or if he wishes he may keep her. This is the time when Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has stated that women may be divorced." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3389)
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ تَطْلِيقَةً وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَاسْتَفْتَى عُمَرُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَقَالَ «مُرْ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لِيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ مِنْ حَيْضَتِهَا هَذِهِ فَإِذَا حَاضَتْ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى فَطَهُرَتْ فَإِنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا وَإِنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُمْسِكْهَا»

أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَاسْتَفْتَى عُمَرُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَقَالَ «مُرْ عَبْدَ اللهِ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ يَدَعْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ مِنْ حَيْضَتِهَا هَذِهِ ثُمَّ تَحِيضُ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَإِنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُفَارِقْهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا وَإِنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُمْسِكْهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللهُ أَنْ يُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ»
that he had divorced his wife while she was menstruating during the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ . ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ about that. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Order him (your son) to take her back and keep her till she is clean and then to wait till she gets her next period and becomes clean again, whereupon, if he wishes to keep her, he can do so, and if he wishes to divorce her he can divorce her before having sexual intercourse with her; and that is the prescribed period which Allah has fixed for the women meant to be divorced." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5251)
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لِيُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ بِهَا اللهُ أَنْ يُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ»
"I divorced my wife during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah while she was menstruating. 'Umar mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah, and the Messenger of Allah got angry about that and said: 'Let him take her back, then keep her until she has menstruated again and become pure again. Then if he wants to divorce her when she is pure and before he touches her (has intercourse with her), then that is divorce at the prescribed time as Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has revealed.'" 'Abdullah bin 'Umar said: "So I took her back, but I still counted the divorce that I had issued to her." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3391)
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي فِي حَيَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ عُمَرُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَتَغَيَّظَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ «لِيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ يُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً وَتَطْهُرَ فَإِنْ بَدَا لَهُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا طَاهِرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا فَذَلِكَ الطَّلَاقُ لِلْعِدَّةِ كَمَا أَمَرَ اللهُ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَرَاجَعْتُهَا وَحَسِبْتُ لَهَا التَّطْلِيقَةَ الَّتِي طَلَّقْتُهَا
"Tell 'Abdullah to take her back, then, when she has performed Ghusl, let him leave her alone, until she menstruates (again). Then, when she performs Ghusl following that second period, he should not touch her until he divorces her. And if he wants to keep her, then let him keep her. That is the time when Allah has stated that women may be divorced." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3396)
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ تَطْلِيقَةً فَانْطَلَقَ عُمَرُ فَأَخْبَرَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مُرْ عَبْدَ اللهِ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا فَإِذَا اغْتَسَلَتْ فَلْيَتْرُكْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ فَإِذَا اغْتَسَلَتْ مِنْ حَيْضَتِهَا الْأُخْرَى فَلَا يَمَسَّهَا حَتَّى يُطَلِّقَهَا فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يُمْسِكَهَا فَلْيُمْسِكْهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللهُ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ»
[AI] To return to her until she menstruates another cycle. Then, if she becomes pure, he can divorce her if he wishes, or he can keep her if he wishes. For it is the divorce that God has commanded. Allah Almighty says, "Then, when they have reached their term, retain them in kindness or release them in kindness." [Quran 65:1]
أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَهَا وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَهَا فَإِنَّهُ الطَّلَاقٌ الَّذِي أَمَرَ اللهُ بِهِ قَالَ تَعَالَى {فَطَلِّقُوهُنَّ لِعِدَّتِهِنَّ} [الطلاق 1]
Command him ('Abdullah b. 'Umar) to take her back (and keep her) and pronounce divorce when she is purified and she again enters the period of menstruation and she is again purified (after passing the period of menses), and then if he so desires he may keep her and if he desires divorce her (finally) before touching her (without having an intercourse with her), for that is the period of waiting ('ldda) which God, the Exalted and Glorious, has commanded for the divorce of women. (Using translation from Muslim 1471a)
أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ لِيَتْرُكْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَ بَعْدُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ طَلَّقَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّ فَتِلْكَ الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللهُ ﷻ أَنْ يُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ الشَّافِعِيِّ ثُمَّ لِيُمْسِكْهَا بَدَلَ قَوْلِهِ ثُمَّ لِيَتْرُكْ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ بَعْدُ
I divorced my wife during the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ when she was in the state of menses. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) made a mention of it to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, whereupon he said: Command him to take her back and leave her (in that state) until she is purified. Then (let her) enter the period of second menses, and when she is purified, then divorce her (finally) before having a sexual intercourse with her, or retain her (finally). That is the 'Idda (the prescribed period) which Allah commanded (to be kept in view) while divorcing the women. 'Ubaidullah reported: I said to Nafi': What became of that divorce (pronounced within 'Idda)? He said: It was as one which she counted. (Using translation from Muslim 1471c)
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ ؓ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ فَلْيُطَلِّقْهَا إِنْ شَاءَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا أَوْ يُمْسِكْهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللهُ تَعَالَى أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ فَقُلْتُ لِنَافِعٍ مَا صَنَعَتِ التَّطْلِيقَةُ؟ قَالَ وَاحِدَةً اعْتَدَّتْ بِهَا
‘Abd Allah (bin Umar) said that he divorced his wife while she was menstruating. ‘Umar mentioned the matter to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ became angry and said “Command him, he must take her back and keep her back till she is purified, then has another menstrual period and is purified. Then if he desires he may divorce her during the period of purity before he has intercourse with her. This is the divorce for waiting period as commanded by Allaah, the Exalted. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2182)

[AI] I divorced my wife during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while she was in her menstrual period. 'Umar mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he became angry with me because of that. He said to me, "Take her back and keep her until she becomes pure from her menses and then becomes pure from any bleeding, then if you wish, divorce her before having any sexual relation with her, that will be the divorce done to her at her waiting period." As Allah commanded. Abdullah said: "So I took her back, and I considered that as one divorce that I had divorced her with." And Abu 'Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us, and Abu al-Walid informed me, from Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Zuhair, from Ishaq bin Mansur, from Yazid bin 'Abdul-Rabbi, from Muhammad bin Harb, whose chain of narration matches Abu Dawud's.
طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي فِي حَيَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَتَغَيَّظَ عَلَيَّ فِي ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ لِيُرَاجِعْهَا ثُمَّ يُمْسِكْهَا حَتَّى تَحِيضَ حَيْضَةً وَتَطْهُرَ فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا طَاهِرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمَسَّهَا فَذَلِكَ الطَّلَاقُ لِلْعِدَّةِ كَمَا أَمَرَ اللهُ تَعَالَى قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ فَرَاجَعْتُهَا وَحَسِبْتُ لَهَا التَّطْلِيقَةَ الَّتِي طَلَّقْتُهَا 14911 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ أنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ زُهَيْرٍ نا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ نا يَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ بِإِسْنَادِهِ نَحْوَهُ

‘Abd Allah bin Umar said that he divorced his wife while she was menstruating during the time of the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ. So ‘Umar bin Al Khattab asked the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ about this matter. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ said “Order him, he must take her back and keep her back till she is purified, then has another menstrual period and is purified. Thereafter if he desires he may divorce her before having intercourse with her, for that is the period of waiting which Allaah the Glorified has commanded for the divorce of women.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2179)
