[3673] 15 - (1472) It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbâs said: "During the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, Abû Bakr and the first two years of 'Umar's Khilâfah, a threefold[2] divorce was counted as one. Then ‘Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb said: ‘People have become hasty in a matter in which they should take their time. I am thinking of holding them to it.’ So he made it binding upon them.”
