Narrated Al-Hasan:The sister of Ma'qil bin Yasar was divorced by her husband who left her till she had fulfilled her term of 'Iddat (i.e. the period which should elapse before she can Remarry) and then he wanted to remarry her but Ma'qil refused, so this Verse was revealed:-- "Do not prevent them from marrying their (former) husbands
Al-Hasan bataate hain: Ma'qil bin Yasar ki behen ko unke shohar ne talaaq de di aur unhe chhod diya yahaan tak ke unki Iddat poori ho gayi. Phir wo unse dobara nikaah karna chahta tha magar Ma'qil ne inkaar kar diya. Isper ye Aayat naazil hui: 'Unhe apne (pehle) shohar se nikaah karne se mat roko.'
