Chapter on the Divorce by a Slave
Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 3|Book 4|Chapter 20
وَ رَوَى حَمَّادُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ إِذَا كَانَتِ اَلْحُرَّةُ تَحْتَ اَلْعَبْدِ كَمْ يُطَلِّقُهَا فَقَالَ "قَالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "اَلطَّلاَقُ وَ اَلْعِدَّةُ بِالنِّسَاءِ " ".
Ḥammad ibn ʿIsa narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: I asked him, "If a free woman is married to a slave, how many divorces can he pronounce against her?" He عليه السلام replied: "Ali عليه السلام said: 'Divorce and the waiting period (ʿiddah) are determined according to the status of the women.'"
