٢٠٧٧ - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: «أُمِرَتْ بَرِيرَةُ أَنْ تَعْتَدَّ بِثَلَاثِ حِيَضٍ»

Commentary
The choice is of a female slave to separate from her husband after she has been set free from her slavery bond, and if she separates by using this choice, she will then spend three menstruation cycles as her waiting period.
