قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) أَمُرُّ بِالْعَشَّارِ وَ مَعِي مَالٌ فَيَسْتَحْلِفُنِي فَإِنْ حَلَفْتُ لَهُ تَرَكَنِي وَ إِنْ لَمْ أَحْلِفْ لَهُ فَتَّشَنِي وَ ظَلَمَنِي فَقَالَ احْلِفْ لَهُ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْتَحْلِفُنِي بِالطَّلَاقِ فَقَالَ احْلِفْ لَهُ فَقُلْتُ فَإِنَّ الْمَالَ لَا يَكُونُ لِي قَالَ فَعَنْ مَالِ أَخِيكَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) رَدَّ طَلَاقَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَ قَدْ طَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ ثَلَاثاً وَ هِيَ حَائِضٌ فَلَمْ يَرَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ شَيْئاً .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Muawiya Bin Wahab, from Ismail Al Ju’fy who said, ‘I said to Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>, ‘I pass by the tax collector and with me is wealth, so he makes me swear an oath. So if I were to swear for him, he leave me (alone), and if I do not swear for him, so he ransacks me and oppresses me’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Swear for him’. I said, ‘Suppose he makes me swear with the divorce?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Swear for him’. I said, ‘So if the wealth does not happen to be mine?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So (do it) for (the sake of) the wealth of your brother. Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> rebuffed a divorce of Ibn Umar and he had divorced his wife three (divorces) and she was menstruating. Thus Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> viewed that (divorce) as nothing’.
