[Machine] "Allah ﷻ has clearly explained divorce, so whoever divorces as Allah ﷻ has commanded, it has been made clear to him. And whoever took upon himself the clothing of someone else, we made it his clothing, and Allah is not burdening you with what you say upon yourselves." He said, "And we see the statement of Ibn Sirin as an expression that I do not remember well, as he said, 'If he had the women of the people of the earth, then he said, 'All of them have gone away.'"

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that a man came to Abdullah ibn Masud and said, "I have divorced my wife by saying I divorce you eight times." Ibn Masud said to him, "What have people told you?" He replied, "I have been told that I have to part absolutely from her." Ibn Masud said, "They have spoken the truth. A person who divorces as Allah has commanded, Allah makes it clear for him, and a person who obscures himself in error, we make stay by his error. So do not confuse yourselves and pull us into your confusion. It is as they have said."

إِنِّي طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي ثَمَانِيَ تَطْلِيقَاتٍ فَقَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَمَاذَا قِيلَ لَكَ قَالَ قِيلَ لِي إِنَّهَا قَدْ بَانَتْ مِنِّي فَقَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ صَدَقُوا مَنْ طَلَّقَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ فَقَدْ بَيَّنَ اللَّهُ لَهُ وَمَنْ لَبَسَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ لَبْسًا جَعَلْنَا لَبْسَهُ مُلْصَقًا بِهِ لاَ تَلْبِسُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ وَنَتَحَمَّلَهُ عَنْكُمْ هُوَ كَمَا يَقُولُونَ

[Machine] "Abdullah, whoever divorces as Allah has commanded, Allah has clearly explained divorce. And whoever takes upon himself [the responsibility], we will clothe him with it. And Allah does not burden a soul beyond its capacity. And we will hold him accountable for it, just as you say."

[Machine] "He is just as you said," then a man came to him and said, "I divorced my wife the number of stars." He said, "Did you say it once?" He said, "Yes," He said, "So you want to clarify from yourself?" He said, "Yes." Abdullah mentioned at that time the women of the people of the earth with something that I do not remember. Then Abdullah said, "Allah has made clear to you how divorce is. So whoever divorces as Allah has commanded, then he has been made clear to him. And whoever wears a garment, we have made it a garment for him, and O Allah! Do not load upon yourselves burdens which you cannot bear. It is as you say."

[Machine] Mohammed mentioned a word from the women of the people of the earth that I did not remember. He said, "Allah has clearly explained the matter of divorce. Whoever divorces according to the command of Allah, then indeed it is clear for him. And whoever clothes himself with injustice, we will make him bear his burden. Indeed, you will not bear the burden of others. And we will carry you on your own. It is as you say." Abu Taher, the scholar, informed us that I am Abu Hamed ibn Bilal, narrating from Yahya ibn Rabia al-Makki, who narrated from Sufyan, from Ayoub, from Ibn Sireen, from Alqamah, who said, "We were with Abdullah and he mentioned its meaning, but the wording is different."
