1117. 'Amr bin Shu'āib narrated from his father, from his grandfather that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whichever man married a woman and entered into her, then it is not lawful for him to marry her daughter. If he did not enter into her then he may marry her daughter. And whichever man married a woman and he entered into her, or he did not enter into her, then it is not lawful for him to marry her mother." (Da'if)
Abū 'Eisā said: This Hadīth is not correct considering of its chain. It has only been reported by Ibn
Lahī'ah and Al-Muthannā bin Aṣ-Ṣabbāh from 'Amr bin Shu'aib, and Al-Muthanā bin Aṣ-Ṣabbāh and Ibn Lahī'ah are both weak in Hadīth.
This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge, they said that when a man marries a woman and then he divorces her before having entered into her, then marrying her daughter is lawful for him. And when a man marries a daughter and he divorces her before having entered into her, then it is not lawful for him to marry her mother due to Allāh, Most High's Saying: Your wives' mothers.[1] And this is the view of Ash-Shāfi'i, Aḥmad and Iṣhāq.

Commentary
Allāh has set up a condition of relationship on the daughter of the wife and said; "No prohibition if you have not gone in." There is no harm in marrying their daughters after divorcing them. But the mothers of the wives are forbidden without any condition of going in or not going in with them. It is not allowed to marry the mother of the wife in any condition.
