Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ طَلَّقْتُ امْرَأَتِي عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ مُرْهُ فَلْيُرَاجِعْهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ ثُمَّ تَحِيضَ أُخْرَى فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ يُطَلِّقُهَا إِنْ شَاءَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُجَامِعَهَا أَوْ يُمْسِكَهَا فَإِنَّهَا الْعِدَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تُطَلَّقَ لَهَا النِّسَاءُ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ubayd told us: Ubaydullah told us, from Nafi', from Ibn Umar, who said: I divorced my wife during the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, while she was menstruating. Umar mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and he said: Order him to take her back until she becomes pure, then menstruates again; when she becomes pure he may divorce her if he wishes, before he has intercourse with her, or keep her, for that is the waiting period which Allah has commanded that women be divorced during.
