167. hadíth

وَ رَوَى سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ اَلْمِنْقَرِيُّ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ طَلَّقَ اِمْرَأَتَهُ وَ بَيْنَهُمَا وَلَدٌ أَيُّهُمَا أَحَقُّ بِهِ قَالَ "اَلْمَرْأَةُ مَا لَمْ تَتَزَوَّجْ".

Sulaiman ibn Dawud al-Minqari narrated from Hafs ibn Ghiyath or another person, who said: I asked Abu Abdillah (a.s) about a man who divorced his wife, and they had a child between them. Which of them has more right to the child? Imam (a.s) said: "The mother, as long as she does not remarry."
