Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar:
that he
had divorced his wife while she was menstruating during
the lifetime of Allah's Apostle . 'Umar bin Al-Khattab
asked Allah's Apostle about that. Allah's Apostle said,
"Order him (your son) to take her back and keep her till
she is clean and then to wait till she gets her next
period and becomes clean again, whereupon, if he wishes
to keep her, he can do so, and if he wishes to divorce
her he can divorce her before having sexual intercourse
with her; and that is the prescribed period which Allah
has fixed for the women meant to be divorced."

Narrated Anas bin Sirin:
Ibn 'Umar
said: "I divorced my wife while she was menstruating. 'Umar
mentioned that to the Prophet . The Prophet said, (to my
father), "Let your son take her back." I asked (Ibn 'Umar),
"Is such a divorce counted (i.e. as one legal divorce)?"
Ibn 'Umar said, "Of course." Narrated Yunus bin Jubair:
Ibn 'Umar said, "The Prophet said to 'Umar, 'Order him (Ibn
'Umar) to take her back.' " I asked, "Is such a divorce
counted (as one legal divorce)?" Ibn 'Umar said, "What
do you think if someone becomes helpless and foolish?"
Volume 7, Book 63, Number 180:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
(Divorcing my wife during her menses) was counted as one
legal divorce.
Volume 7, Book 63, Number 181:
Narrated Al-Awza:
I asked
Az-Zuhri, "Which of the wives of the Prophet sought
refuge with Allah from him?" He said "I was told by 'Ursa
that 'Aisha said, 'When the daughter of Al-Jaun was
brought to Allah's Apostle (as his bride) and he went
near her, she said, "I seek refuge with Allah from you."
He said, "You have sought refuge with The Great; return
to your family."
Volume 7, Book 63, Number 182:
Narrated Abu Usaid:
We went
out with the Prophet to a garden called Ash-Shaut till
we reached two walls between which we sat down. The
Prophet said, "Sit here," and went in (the garden). The
Jauniyya (a lady from Bani Jaun) had been brought and
lodged in a house in a date-palm garden in the home of
Umaima bint An-Nu'man bin Sharahil, and her wet nurse
was with her. When the Prophet entered upon her, he said
to her, "Give me yourself (in marriage) as a gift." She
said, "Can a princess give herself in marriage to an
ordinary man?" The Prophet raised his hand to pat her so
that she might become tranquil. She said, "I seek refuge
with Allah from you." He said, "You have sought refuge
with One Who gives refuge. Then the Prophet came out to
us and said, "O Abu Usaid! Give her two white linen
dresses to wear and let her go back to her family."
Narrated Sahl and Abu Usaid: The Prophet married Umaima
bint Sharahil, and when she was brought to him, he
stretched his hand towards her. It seemed that she
disliked that, whereupon the Prophet ordered Abu Usaid
to prepare her and to provide her with two white linen
dresses. (See Hadith No. 541).
