Question:
I hope you will clarify the authenticity of this hadithBulugh al-Maram 8:119, as I have read in one of the magazines that it is a weak hadith on the grounds that Allah does not hate what He has made lawful.
Answer:
The hadith is indeed reported, and it is in your book on marriage, and it has a place. However, there is no doubt that divorce is not permissible except in cases of need. One who has no need is in the lowest of states, which is dislike, and it may even become forbidden. Thus, the five rulings apply to divorce: obligation, prohibition, dislike, recommendation, and permissibility.
