Summary
Malik, commenting on the Qur'anic verse about men who make zihar against their wives and then go back on what they said, says he heard that its meaning is this: a man makes zihar against his wife, then resolves to keep her and have intercourse with her. If he resolves on that, expiation is due. If he divorces her and does not resolve after the zihar to keep her and have intercourse with her, no expiation is due. If he marries her again, he must not touch her until he pays the expiation for zihar. 1
