English translation

2206. It was reported from Nāfi' bin 'Ujair bin 'Abd Yazīd bin Rukānah, that Rukānah bin Abd Yazīd divorced his wife Suhaimah irrevocably (Al-Battah), and he then informed the Prophet ﷺ about that, and said: "By Allāh, I only intended one!" The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "You swear by Allāh that you only intended one?" He replied: "I swear by Allāh that I only intended one." So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ returned her to him. He then divorced her the second time during the era of 'Umar, and then the third time during the era of ‘Uthmān. (Hasan) Abū Dāwud said: The beginning of it is the wording of Ibrāhīm (one of the narrators) while the end of it is the wording of Ibn As-Sarḥ (one of the narrators).

Arabic text

2206 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ السَّرْحِ، وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْكَلْبِيُّ أَبُو ثَوْرٍ، فِي آخَرِينَ قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الشَّافِعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي عَمِّي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ شَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ عُجَيْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ، أَنَّ رُكَانَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ يَزِيدَ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ سُهَيْمَةَ الْبَتَّةَ، فَأَخْبَرَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَلِكَ، وَقَالَ: وَاللَّهِ مَا أَرَدْتُ إِلَّا وَاحِدَةً، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَاللَّهِ مَا أَرَدْتَ إِلَّا وَاحِدَةً؟»، فَقَالَ رُكَانَةُ: وَاللَّهِ مَا أَرَدْتُ إِلَّا وَاحِدَةً، فَرَدَّهَا إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَطَلَّقَهَا الثَّانِيَةَ فِي زَمَانِ عُمَرَ، وَالثَّالِثَةَ فِي زَمَانِ عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «أَوَّلُهُ لَفْظُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَآخِرُهُ لَفْظُ ابْنِ السَّرْحِ»،
