HADITH OF THE DAY
PRESCRIBED PERIOD (FOR DIVORCE)
Narrated by Salim
That Abdullah bin Umar told him that he had divorced his wife while she was in her menses so Umar informed Allah's Messenger (Peace & Blessings of Allah upon Him) of that.
Allah's Messenger became very angry at that and said, "Ibn Umar must return her to his house and keep her as his wife till she becomes clean and then menstruates and becomes clean again, whereupon, if he wishes to divorce her, he may do so while she is still clean and before having any sexual relations with her, for that is the legally prescribed period for divorce as Allah has ordered."
[Vol-6 Hadith-431 Sahih Al-Bukhari]
