Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
divorced his wife while she was menstruating in the time of the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, Umar ibn
al-Khattab asked the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, about it. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "Go and tell him to take her back and keep her
until she is purified and then has a period and then is purified. Then
if he wishes, he an keep her, and if he wishes he should divorce her
before he has intercourse with her. That is the idda which Allah has
commanded for women who are divorced."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Urwa ibn az-
Zubayr from A'isha, umm al-muminin, that she took Hafsa ibn Abd ar-
Rahman ibn Abi Bakr as-Siddiq into her house when she had entered the
third period of her idda. Ibn Shihab said, "That was mentioned to Amra
bint Abd ar-Rahman, and she said that Urwa had spoken the truth and
people had argued with A'isha about it. They said that Allah, the
Blessed, the Exalted, said in His Book, 'Three quru.' A'isha said,
'You spoke the truth. Do you know what quru are? Quru are times of
becoming pure after menstruation .' "
