Chapter on What Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty, Has Made Permissible and Prohibited in Marriage
وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَعْتَقَ مَمْلُوكَةً لَهُ وَ جَعَلَ عِتْقَهَا صَدَاقَهَا ثُمَّ طَلَّقَهَا مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ بِهَا فَقَالَ "قَدْ مَضَى عِتْقُهَا وَ يَرْتَجِعُ عَلَيْهَا سَيِّدُهَا بِنِصْفِ قِيمَةِ ثَمَنِهَا تَسْعَى فِيهَا، وَ لاَ عِدَّةَ لَهُ عَلَيْهَا".
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Abdullah ibn Sinan, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a man who freed his female slave and made her emancipation her dowry, then divorced her before consummating the marriage. Imam عليه السلام said: "Her emancipation has taken effect, and her master reclaims half of her value, which she must work to pay off. She has no waiting period ('iddah) upon him."
