Volume 7, Book 63, Number 190:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
A man divorced his wife and she married another man who proved to be impotent and divorced
her. She could not get her satisfaction from him, and after a while he divorced her. Then she came to
the Prophet and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! My first husband divorced me and then I married another
man who entered upon me to consummate his marriage but he proved to be impotent and did not
approach me except once during which he benefited nothing from me. Can I remarry my first hus –
band in this case?” Allah’s Apostle said, “It is unlawful to marry your first husband till the other hus –
band consummates his marriage with you.”
