Hadith 5319

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ ، عَنْ اللَّيْثِ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ ، أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَهُ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّهُ كَتَبَ إِلَى ابْنِ الْأَرْقَمِ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ سُبَيْعَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةَ ، " كَيْفَ أَفْتَاهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ فَقَالَتْ : أَفْتَانِي إِذَا وَضَعْتُ أَنْ أَنْكِحَ " .
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Abdullah: that his father had written to Ibn Al-Arqam a letter asking him to ask Subai'a Al-Aslamiya how the Prophet had given her the verdict. She said, "The Prophet, gave me his verdict that after I gave birth, I could marry."

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Hazrat Sa'd bin Khawlah was a Muhajir (emigrant), but during the Farewell Pilgrimage (Hajjat al-Wada'), he passed away in Makkah al-Mukarramah itself. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) also expressed sorrow over this. Radi Allahu anhu wa ardaahu.

Urdu marginal note:
“When you have delivered the child,” meaning that the waiting period (iddah) is completed with childbirth (delivery of the child). However, since generally marriage is not contracted during the state of postnatal bleeding (nifas), therefore in some narrations it is stated, “when you become pure…etc.” Otherwise, nifas is not included in the waiting period (iddah).

Benefits and Issues:
➊ The meaning of preparing for marriage is that she took off the plain clothing of the waiting period (‘iddah) and put on good clothing and adorned herself.

➋ The request for a supplication of forgiveness meant that she thought she had made a mistake by breaking the restrictions of the waiting period (‘iddah) before its due time. The meaning of the statement of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) is that the waiting period (‘iddah) has ended, therefore you have not made any mistake, so do not be distressed.
