سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2206
Nafi bun Ujair bin Abd Yazid bin Ruknah reported Ruknah bin Abd Yazid divorced his wife Suhaimah absolutely. The Prophet ﷺ was informed about this matter. He said to him (the Prophet) I swear by Allaah that I meant it to be only a single utterance of divorce. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said “I swear by Allaah that I meant it to be only a single divorce. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ restored her to him, Then he divorced her the second time in the time of Umar and the third time of Uthman. Abu Dawud said “This tradition contains the words of Ibrahim in its beginning and the words of Ibn Al Sarh in the end.
