3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr who has said the following
“I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about the case of a man whose wife becomes clean of Hayd (menses) and he comes to a group of people and says, ‘So and so is ‘Taliq’ (let go, divorced)’ if divorce takes place or not but he has not asked them to bear witness. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, divorce takes place.’”
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رَجُلٍ كَانَتْ لَهُ امْرَأَةٌ طَهُرَتْ مِنْ حَيْضِهَا فَجَاءَ إِلَى جَمَاعَةٍ فَقَالَ فُلَانَةُ طَالِقٌ يَقَعُ عَلَيْهَا الطَّلَاقُ وَ لَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُمُ اشْهَدُوا قَالَ نَعَمْ .
