- Title
DIVORCE, EADĪTH-SCHOLAR STYLE: FROM AL-DĀ RIMĪ TO AL-TIRMIDHĪ.
- Authors
LUCAS, SCOTT C.
- Abstract
The article compares the Book on Divorce (kitab al-talaq) in the major third/ninth-century collections of Sunni hadiths. The author selected six books for this study, and states that all of these books contain chapters in their Books on Divorce that lack a clear connection to the process of terminating marriage. It notes that divorce-related topics were placed by several hadith scholars outside of the Book on Divorce. The author concluded that hadith scholars were open about expressing their personal legal opinions and they have developed methodologies for determining the laws of divorce.
