عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمٰنِ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلٰى سُبَيْعَةَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةِ فَسَأَلْتُهَا عَنْ أَمْرِهَا فَقَالَتْ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ سَعْدِ بْنِ خَوْلَةَ فَتُوُفِّيَ عَنِّي فَلَمْ أَمْكُثْ إِلَّا شَهْرَيْنِ حَتّٰى وَضَعْتُ قَالَتْ فَخَطَبَنِي أَبُو السَّنَابِلِ بْنُ بَعْكَكٍ أَخُو بَنِي عَبْدِ الدَّارِ فَتَهَيَّأْتُ لِلنِّكَاحِ قَالَتْ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ حَمَوَايَّ وَقَدْ اخْتَضَبْتُ وَتَهَيَّأْتُ فَقَالَ: مَاذَا تُرِيدِينَ؟ يَا سُبَيْعَةُ! قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَتَزَوَّجَ، قَالَ: وَاللّٰہِ! مَا لَكِ مِنْ زَوْجٍ حَتّٰى تَعْتَدِّيْنَ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا، قَالَتْ: فَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللّٰہِ صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم فَذَكَرْتُ ذٰلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم: ((قَدْ حَلَلْتِ فَتَزَوَّجِي۔))
It is narrated from Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman, he says: I went to Sayyidah Subai’ah bint Abi Barzah Aslamiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) and asked her about her matter. She said: I was married to Sa’d bin Khawlah, he passed away, and only two months after his death I gave birth to a child. Meanwhile, Abu Sanabil bin Ba’kkak from Banu Abdud-Dar sent me a marriage proposal. I was ready to marry, when my brother-in-law came to me. I had applied henna and was fully prepared. He said: O Subai’ah, what do you intend to do? I said: I want to get married. He said: By Allah! You cannot marry yet, until you have completed the waiting period of four months and ten days. Subai’ah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I went to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned this to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You have become lawful (halal), and you may marry.
