Hadith 945

Narrated al-Miswar bin Makhramah (RA): Some nights after her husband's death, Subai'ah al-Aslamiyah (RA) gave birth to a child. Then she went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and asked permission to marry. He gave her permission and she married. [Reported by al-Bukhari]. Its basic meaning is found in the two Sahih books of al-Bukhari and Muslim. A wording has: "She gave birth to a child after forty nights of her husband's death." A wording by Muslim has: az-Zuhri said, "I think there is no harm if she marries when she is still bleeding (due to child-birth), but her husband should not go near her till she is purified."
