2049 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ جُوَيْبِرٍ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ، عَنِ النَّزَّالِ بْنِ سَبْرَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «لَا طَلَاقَ قَبْلَ النِّكَاحِ»

Commentary

If a person says: 'If I marry so-and-so woman and then I will divorce her.' This is vain talk, which is ineffective, because he spoke of divorcing her when she was not even his wife, as long as he does not divorce her after the bond of marriage.
