Important guidance from the Shaykh on the issue of divorcing a menstruating woman.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : We have previously discussed the issue of divorcing a menstruating woman, explaining the hadiths on the matter and clarifying that the stronger position is that the divorce does not take effect. Anyone who wants more of this research should refer to *Zad al-Ma'ad* by Ibn al-Qayyim and *Tahdhib al-Sunan*, also by Ibn al-Qayyim, in which he excelled and provided great benefit. After a person reads this research, he will find that it is necessary to say that the divorce does not take effect. I have told you many times about the general principles of the Shari'ah. The general principles of the Shari'ah are principles that cannot be overturned by specific issues unless there is clear evidence that serves as an exception; otherwise, the default is that the principles remain as they are. The general principle that is considered half of the religion is the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
He who did any act for which there is no sanction from our behalf, that is to be rejected. من عمل عملا ليس عليه أمرنا فهو رد
Sahih Muslim 1718b
Yes, indeed. In any case, anyone who wants more on this important issue should refer to what we mentioned, because I have not seen any speech more comprehensive than the speech of Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) on this topic. Yes.
