Hadith 32

Sahih Muslim

Book 18: The Book of Divorce

Chapter 4

Giving one's wife the choice does not count as a divorce, unless it is intended as such

باب بَيَانِ أَنَّ تَخْيِيرَ امْرَأَتِهِ لاَ يَكُونُ طَلاَقًا إِلاَّ بِالنِّيَّةِ ‏‏

Sahih Muslim 1476b
وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عِيسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمٌ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ ‏.‏ نَحْوَهُ ‏.‏
The above hadith has likewise been narrated through another chain.
