" عَن الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ حَنْطَبٍ أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَ امْرَأتَهُ الْبَتَّةَ، ثُمَّ أَتَى عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ: مَا حَمَلكَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ؟ قُلْتُ: قَدْ فَعَلتُ، فَقَرَأَ {وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ فَعَلُوا مَا يُوعَظُونَ بِهِ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ وَأَشَدَّ تَثْبِيتًا} مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ؟ قُلْتُ: قَدْ فَعَلْتُ، قَالَ: أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ امْرَأَتَكَ فَإِنَّ الْوَاحِدَةِ (لاَ) تَبْتُّ".

"It is narrated from al-Muttalib ibn Hantab that he divorced his wife with a final (ba'tah) divorce, then he went to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab and mentioned that to him. He said: 'What led you to that?' I said: 'I have done it.' Then he recited: {And if they had done what they were advised, it would have been better for them and stronger in firmness}. 'What led you to that?' I said: 'I have done it.' He said: 'Keep your wife, for a single (divorce) does not make it final.'"
