I said: "The foolish one who lacks sound reasoning." Imam (as) replied: "Yes, it is valid."

No, she does not deserve it.’”

I heard abu Basir saying the following: “I once asked abu Ja‘far (a.s.), about the case of a woman who is not divorced according to Sunnah and said that they are a family and no one knows them. He (the Imam) said, ‘It does not have any valid effect.’”

“Abu ‘Abd Allah, Alayhi al-Salam, has said, ‘Those who were before us would say, ‘Setting free of a slave or divorce does not have any valid effect until a man has an ownership and marriage.’”

“About the case of a woman who is divorced and experiences Hayd (menses) once every three months, abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘When three months are over her waiting period is complete. For every month he counts for her one Hayd (menses).”’

"In the case of khulʿ (divorce initiated by the wife with compensation), if a woman says to her husband, 'I will not perform ghusl (ritual purification) for you after intimacy, I will not honor your oaths, and I will bring into your bed someone you dislike,' then when she says this to him, it becomes permissible for him to divorce her through khulʿ, and it is lawful for him to take from her what he has taken."

If two just witness testify to prove it, she does not need to complete any ‘Iddah (waiting period), otherwise, she must commence her ‘Iddah (waiting period) from the day she is informed.’”

“There is a man who divorces his wife and does not go back to her until three Hayd (menses) are complete, then marries her then divorces her and leaves until three Hayd (menses) are complete and does not go back to her to touch her. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘He can marry forever as long as he does not go back to her to touch”’

“There is a man who divorces his wife, then does not go back to her until three cycles of Hayd (menses) are complete, then divorces and leaves her until three cycles of Hayd (menses) are complete then marries her then divorces without going back to her and leaves until three cycles of Hayd (menses) are complete. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘He can marry her forever as long as he does not go back and touch her.’ Ibn Bukayr and his companions were of this opinion and ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Mughirah narrated it to me that he asked, ‘On what basis do you say so?’ He replied, ‘I say so on the basis of Hadith narrated by Rifa‘ah who has narrated from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), that it destroys what is passed. He (the narrator) has said, that Rifa‘ah has only said, ‘He divorced, then another man married her, then divorced; then the first man married her and this destroys the first ‘Talaq’ (divorce).”’
