Chapter 68: Divorce
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: Barira' s husband was a slave called Mughith, as if I am seeing him now, going behind Barira and
weeping with his tears flowing down his beard. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to 'Abbas, "O 'Abbas ! are you not
astonished at the love of Mughith for Barira and the hatred of Barira for Mughith?" The Prophet (ﷺ) then
said to Barira, "Why don' t you return to him?" She said, "O Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ)! Do you order me to do
so?" He said, "No, I only intercede for him." She said, "I am not in need of him."
