Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Reciter: And Ali ibn Hajar al-Sa'di narrated to me, and Isma'il ibn Ibrahim narrated to us, from Ayub, from Ibn Sirin, who said: "I remained for twenty years being told by people I did not suspect that Ibn 'Umar divorced his wife three times while she was menstruating, and he was ordered to take her back. So I began to suspect them and did not know the hadith until I met Abu Ghalaib, Yunus ibn Jubayr al-Bahili, who was a man of reliability. He narrated to me that he asked Ibn 'Umar, and he told him that he had divorced his wife with one divorce while she was menstruating, and he was ordered to take her back. I said: 'Did you think he was being tested?' He said: 'His mouth, or perhaps he was weak and foolish.'".
