Tawoos narrates: Abu Sahba said to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them): "Do you know that during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), in the caliphate of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), and in the first three years of Sayyiduna Umar's (may Allah be pleased with him) era, three (divorces) were counted as one?" Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) replied: "Yes."
