سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَاحِدَةً قَالَ هُوَ أَمْلَكُ بِرَجْعَتِهَا مَا لَمْ تَنْقَضِ الْعِدَّةُ قُلْتُ فَإِنْ لَمْ يُشْهِدْ عَلَى رَجْعَتِهَا قَالَ فَلْيُشْهِدْ قُلْتُ فَإِنْ غَفَلَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَلْيُشْهِدْ حِينَ يَذْكُرُ وَ إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الشُّهُودُ لِمَكَانِ الْمِيرَاثِ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Al A’ala, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, (It has been narrated) from one of the two (5th or 6th Imam<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about a man who divorces his wife, once. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He is in control with reverting back to her for as long as she has not fulfilled her waiting period’. I said, ‘So if he does not keep witnesses upon his reversion?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So let him keep witnesses’. I said, ‘So if he is oblivious (unaware) from that?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So let him keep witnesses when he remembers, and rather the witnesses have been made for the place of inheritance’.
