Ma’qil bin Yasar said

I had a sister, and she used to receive marriage proposals. A cousin of mine came to me, so I married her to him. Then he divorced her with a divorce that gave him the right of return. He left her alone until her waiting period expired. When she received marriage proposals again, he came to propose to her. I said, "No, by Allah, I will never marry her to you." He said, "And concerning me, this verse was revealed: “And when you divorce women and they have fulfilled their term, do not prevent them from marrying their husbands...”" He said, "So I made expiation for my oath, and I married her to him."
