Hadith 34964
Yahya related to me from Malik from Jafar ibn Muhammad from his
father that Ali ibn Abi Talib said, "When a man takes a vow to abstain
from intercourse, divorce does not occur immediately. If four months
pass, he must declare his intent and either he is divorced or he
revokes his vow . "
Malik said, "That is what is done among
us."
Muwatta Malik Book 29, Hadith 18

Yahya related to me from Malik from
Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn al-Musayyab said, "If a man gives his
wife authority over herself, and she does not separate from him and
remains with him, there is no divorce."
Malik said that a
woman whose husband gave her power over herself and they separated
while she was unwilling, had no power to revoke the divorce. She only
had power over herself as long as they remained together. Muwatta Malik Book 29, Hadith 17

four months have passed and he continues to abstain." Muwatta Malik Book 29, Hadith 19
