أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَکَمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ اللَّيْثِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَی عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ جَائَتْ امْرَأَةُ رِفَاعَةَ الْقُرَظِيِّ إِلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي نَکَحْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ الزَّبِيرِ وَاللَّهِ مَا مَعَهُ إِلَّا مِثْلُ هَذِهِ الْهُدْبَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَعَلَّکِ تُرِيدِينَ أَنْ تَرْجِعِي إِلَی رِفَاعَةَ لَا حَتَّی يَذُوقَ عُسَيْلَتَکِ وَتَذُوقِي عُسَيْلَتَهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3440
It was narrated from Ibn Tawus, from his father, that Abu As-Sahba’ came to Ibn ‘Abbas and said: “Ibn ‘Abbas! Did you not know that the threefold divorce during the time of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and Abu Bakr, and during the early part of ‘Umar’s Caliphate, used to be counted as one divorce?” He said: “Yes.” (Sahih)
