2080. It was narrated from 'Aishah that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The divorce of a slave woman is twice, and her (waiting) period is two menstrual cycles." Abu 'Āsim said: "I mentioned this to Muzāhir and said: 'Tell me what you told Ibn Jurāiḥ.'

2080 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ مُظَاهِرِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «طَلَاقُ الْأَمَةِ تَطْلِيقَتَانِ، وَقُرْؤُهَا حَيْضَتَانِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ: فَذَكَرْتُهُ لِمُظَاهِرٍ، فَقُلْتُ: حَدِّثْنِي كَمَا حَدَّثْتَ ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ، فَأَخْبَرَنِي عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «طَلَاقُ الْأَمَةِ تَطْلِيقَتَانِ، وَقُرْؤُهَا حَيْضَتَانِ»

In Muwatta, Imam Mālik ﷺ quoted the verdicts of Uthmān, Zaid bin Thābit and 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar ؓ that a male slave has the right to divorce two times only, and the waiting period of a female slave will be two menstruation cycles. It means divorce relies on the husband's status of him being free or a slave, while the waiting period depends on the woman's status of her being free or a slave. (Muwatta Imam Mālik: 2/118]
