Umdat al-Ahkam (al-Maqdisi) 323عمدة الأحكام 323

عن عبد الله بن عمر رضي الله عنهما، «أنه طلق امرأته وهي حائض، فذكر ذلك عمر لرسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم -، فتغيظ منه رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم -، ثم قال: ليراجعها، ثم ليمسكها حتى تطهر، ثم تحيض فتطهر، فإن بدا له أن يطلقها فليطلقها قبل أن يمسها، فتلك العدة، كما أمر الله عز وجل». وفي لفظ: «حتى تحيض حيضة مستقبلة، سوى حيضتها التي طلقها فيها». وفي لفظ «فحسبت من طلاقها، وراجعها عبد الله كما أمره رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم -».

Narrated Salim: That `Abdullah bin `Umar told him that he had divorced his wife while she was in her menses so `Umar informed Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) of that. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) became very angry at that and said, "(Ibn `Umar must return her to his house and keep her as his wife till she becomes clean and then menstruates and becomes clean again, whereupon, if he wishes to divorce her, he may do so while she is still clean and before having any sexual relations with her, for that is the legally prescribed period for divorce as Allah has ordered."
