Hadith 5988

Muwatta Malik

موطأ مالك

11
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا مَلَّكَ الرَّجُلُ امْرَأَتَهُ أَمْرَهَا فَالْقَضَاءُ مَا قَضَتْ بِهِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يُنْكِرَ عَلَيْهَا وَيَقُولَ لَمْ أُرِدْ إِلاَّ وَاحِدَةً فَيَحْلِفُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَيَكُونُ أَمْلَكَ بِهَا مَا كَانَتْ فِي عِدَّتِهَا .


Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umarsaid, "When a man gives a woman command over herself, then the resultis as she decides unless he denies it and says that he only meant togive her one divorce and he swears to it - then he has access to herwhile she is in her idda."
