divorce
4757 - وَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : "لَوْ وُلِّيتُ اَلنَّاسَ لَعَلَّمْتُهُمُ اَلطَّلاَقَ وَ كَيْفَ يَنْبَغِي لَهُمْ أَنْ يُطَلِّقُوا" ثُمَّ قَالَ "لَوْ أُتِيتُ بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ خَالَفَهُ لَأَوْجَعْتُ ظَهْرَهُ وَ مَنْ طَلَّقَ لِغَيْرِ اَلسُّنَّةِ رُدَّ إِلَى كِتَابِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ إِنْ رَغِمَ أَنْفُهُ".
Hadith.4757 - Abu Jafar Imam Al-Baqir (as) said: "If I were to govern the people, I would teach them the correct way to divorce and how it should be carried out." Then Imam (as) added: "If someone were brought to me who opposed this (correct method), I would strike his back severely. Whoever divorces in a manner contrary to the Sunnah will have his divorce referred back to the Book of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic, even if he dislikes it."
