حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَخْبَرَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ح و حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ رَافِعٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ طَاوُسٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ أَبَا الصَّهْبَائِ قَالَ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّمَا کَانَتْ الثَّلَاثُ تُجْعَلُ وَاحِدَةً عَلَی عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبِي بَکْرٍ وَثَلَاثًا مِنْ إِمَارَةِ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ نَعَمْ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 3674
Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the (pronouncement) of three divorces during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and that of Abu Bakr and two years of the caliphate of Umar (Allah be pleased with him) (was treated) as one. But Umar b. Khattab (Allah be pleased with him) said: Verily the people have begun to hasten in the matter in which they are required to observe respite. So if we had imposed this upon them, and he imposed it upon them.
