أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: إِذَا آلَى الرَّجُلُ مِنَ امْرَأَتِهِ لَمْ يَقَعْ عَلَيْهَا طَلاقٌ، وَإِنْ مَضَتْ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ حَتَّى يُوقِفَ، فَإِمَّا أَنْ يُطَلِّقَ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَفِيءَ.
مسند امام شافی · Hadith 1230
Tell us Malik from Nafi from Ibn 'Umar said: If a man to his wife did not divorce it is located, and four months ago even stop, either to release or to Eve.
