"عَنِ الشَّعْبِىِّ قَالَ: أُتِى عُمَرُ بنُ الخطَّابِ بِامْرأَةٍ تَزَوَّجَتْ فِى عِدَّتِهَا فَأَخَذَ مَهْرَهَا فَجَعَلَهُ في بَيْت الْمَالِ، وَفَرَّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا، وَقَالَ: لَا يَجْتَمِعَانِ وَعَاقَبَهُمَا، فَقَالَا : لَيْسَ هَكَذَا وَلكِنَّ هَذِهِ الْجَهَالَةَ مِنَ النَّاسِ، وَلَكِنْ يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَهُمَا تَسْتَكْمِلُ بَقِيَّةَ الْعِدَّةِ مِنَ الأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ تَسْتقْبِلُ عِدَّةً أُخْرَى، وَجَعَل لَها عَلِىٌّ الْمَهْرَ بِمَا اسْتَحلَّ مِنْ فَرْجِهَا فَحَمِدَ الله عُمَرُ وأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ رُدُّوا الْجَهَالَاتِ إِلَى السُنَّةِ".

[Machine] Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "No, it is not like that. This ignorance is from the people. However, a distinction is made between them. Then the rest of the matter is continued from the beginning. Then another issue is addressed, and Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) set the dowry for it from what he made permissible from her private parts. Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, 'Praise be to Allah' and praised him. Then he said, 'O people, return ignorant practices to the sunnah.'"  

البيهقي:١٥٥٤٥أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ أنا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ الْأَعْرَابِيِّ نا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ نا أَسْبَاطُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ نا أَشْعَثُ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ قَالَ أُتِيَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ بِامْرَأَةٍ تَزَوَّجَتْ فِي عِدَّتِهَا فَأَخَذَ مَهْرَهَا فَجَعَلَهُ فِي بَيْتِ الْمَالِ وَفَرَّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا وَقَالَ لَا يَجْتَمِعَانِ وَعَاقَبَهُمَا قَالَ فَقَالَ

عَلِيٌّ ؓ لَيْسَ هَكَذَا وَلَكِنْ هَذِهِ الْجَهَالَةَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَلَكِنْ يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَهُمَا ثُمَّ تَسْتَكْمِلُ بَقِيَّةَ الْعِدَّةِ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ تَسْتَقْبِلُ عِدَّةً أُخْرَى وَجَعَلَ لَهَا عَلِيٌّ ؓ الْمَهْرَ بِمَا اسْتَحَلَّ مِنْ فَرْجِهَا قَالَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ عُمَرُ ؓ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ رُدُّوا الْجَهَالِاتِ إِلَى السُّنَّةِ
