5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ’Isma‘il ibn Marrar from Yunus from ibn Muskan from Sulayman ibn Khalid who has said the following:

“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah , about the case of a man who divorces his wife when he is absent from her. He arranges witnesses about his divorce; then he comes home and stays with her for months without informing her of divorce and the woman claims to have become pregnant but the man says. ‘I had divorced you in the presence of witnesses. He (the Imam) said, ‘He is responsible for the child and his words are not accepted.’”
