Sunan an-Nasa'i 3392

Translation

"What did you think about a man who divorces his wife when she is menstruating?" He said to him: "Abdullah bin 'Umar divorced his wife when she was menstruating during the time of the Messenger of Allah. 'Umar asked the Messenger of Allah (about that) and said: 'Abdullah bin 'Umar has divorced his wife while she was menstruating.' The Messenger of Allah said: 'Let him take her back.' So he made me take her back. He said: 'When she becomes pure, let him divorce her or keep her.' Ibn 'Umar said: 'The Prophet said: 'O Prophet! When you divorce women, divorce them before their 'Iddah (prescribed period) elapses.'"

What scholars said about it

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).
