Narrated Ibn 'Abbas (RA): The wife of Thabit bin Qais came to the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger, I do not find fault with Thabit bin Qais (RA) in respect of character or religion, but I dislike (and fear) that I might commit an act of Kufr fil-Islam (that which is contradictory to Islamic behavior)." Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) asked her, "Will you give him back his garden?" And she replied, "Yes," so Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said to him, "Accept the garden and divorce her, with one pronouncement (of divorce)." [Reported by al-Bukhari] . Another narration by him has: "He commanded him to divorce her." Abu Dawud and at-Tirmidhi reported this Hadith and the later graded it Hasan (good): "The wife of Thabit bin Qais got a divorce from him in return for a compensation (paid by her), and the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) made her 'Iddah (period of waiting before re-marrying) one menstruation course." Ibn Majah reported the narration of 'Amr bin Shu'aib, on this father's authority, from his grandfather: "Thabit bin Qais was very unattractive and his wife said, 'Were it not for the fear of Allah, when he entered my presence I would spit in his face.'" Ahmad reported from Sahl bin Abu Hathma's Hadith that it was the first ever husband and wife separation for compensation in Islam.
