Divorce and Khul': A Warning from the Prophet

SUMMARY: The Prophet warned against women seeking divorce or Khul' as it is similar to the behavior of female hypocrites.

It was narrated from Ayyub, from Al-Hasan, from Abu Hurairah, that the Prophet said: "Women who seek divorce and Khul' are like the female hypocrites". Al-Hasan said: "I did not hear it from anyone other than Abu Hurairah".
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا الْمَخْزُومِيُّ، - وَهُوَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ الْمُنْتَزِعَاتُ وَالْمُخْتَلِعَاتُ هُنَّ الْمُنَافِقَاتُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ الْحَسَنُ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحَسَنُ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ شَيْئًا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith warns against women seeking divorce or khul', which is a form of divorce initiated by the wife in which she returns her dowry to her husband in exchange for ending their marriage. The Prophet likened this behavior to that of female hypocrites, who are those who outwardly appear to be believers but inwardly have no faith. This hadith teaches us that we should not take our marriages lightly and should strive for reconciliation before resorting to divorce or khul'. We must also be mindful of our actions and ensure that they are consistent with our beliefs.
