Shahi reported that Sayyidah Fatimah bint Qays (RA) said that her husband divorced her with three pronouncements in the times of the Prophet Allah’s Messenger said, “No shelter and no provision for you.” Mughirah said that he mentioned this hadith to Ibrahim who reported that Sayyidina Umar (RA) said, “We cannot give up the Book ul Allah and the sunnah of our Prophet (SAW) for the word of a woman of whom we do not know whether she remembers or has forgotten.” Hence, Sayyidina Umar used to place upon the husband responsibility for shelter and provision during the iddah of the divorced woman.
Sha’hi narrated I visited Fatimah bint Qays and asked her about the judgement of Allah’s Messenger (SAW) in her case. She said, “My husband divorced me the divorce al-battah. So I wrangled with him for shelter and provision, but the Prophet did not get me these thing.”
In the hadith of Dawud, she is also quoted as saying, “He commanded me to pass my iddah at the house of Ibn Umm Maktum.”
