حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، أَنْبَأَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، أَنْبَأَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَهُوَ مَوْلَى آلِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنِ الرُّبَيِّعِ بِنْتِ مُعَوِّذِ بْنِ عَفْرَاءَ، أَنَّهَا اخْتَلَعَتْ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَمَرَهَا النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم - أَوْ أُمِرَتْ - أَنْ تَعْتَدَّ بِحَيْضَةٍ . قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ الرُّبَيِّعِ الصَّحِيحُ أَنَّهَا أُمِرَتْ أَنْ تَعْتَدَّ بِحَيْضَةٍ .

Mahmud ibn Ghaylan informed us: al-Fadl ibn Musa narrated to us, from Sufyan, who informed us that Muhammad ibn Abd al-Rahman, the client of the family of Talhah, narrated to us from Sulayman ibn Yasar, from al-Rubayyi bint Muawwidh ibn Afra: She sought release from her marriage during the time of the Prophet, and the Prophet—or, according to another wording, she was—ordered to observe a waiting period of one menstrual cycle. It is also reported in this chapter from Ibn Abbas. Abu Isa said: The sound version of al-Rubayyi's report is that she was ordered to observe a waiting period of one menstrual cycle.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The source preserves uncertainty over whether the Prophet directly issued the instruction or she was instructed by another authority; the compiler identifies the latter wording as the sound version.
