Muwatta' Malik 29-87

Translation

Yahya related to me from Malik that Abdullah ibn Dinar said, "I heard Abdullah ibn Umar recite from the Qur'an, 'Prophet! When you divorce women, divorce them at the beginning of their idda.'" Malik said, "He meant by that, to make one pronouncement of divorce at the beginning of each period of purity."

In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.

• Qurṭubī

  و قوله وقرأ النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فطلقوهن لقبل عدتهن هذا تصريح برفع هذه القراءة إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم غير أنها شاذة عن المصحف ومنقولة آحادا فلا تكون قرآنا لكنها خبر مرفوع إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم صحيح

  machine translationHis statement, "And the Prophet ﷺ recited: 'So divorce them at the beginning of their ʿiddah'", is an explicit attribution of this reading to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. However, it is irregular (shādhdh) with respect to the written copy of the Quran (muṣḥaf) and was transmitted through single chains (āḥād), so it is not Quran; rather, it is a sound (ṣaḥīḥ) report attributed to the Prophet ﷺ (marfūʿ).
