اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ ، وَعَمْرِو بْنِ عُتْبَةَ ، أنهما كتبا إلى سبيعة بنت الحارث يسألانها عَنْ أَمْرِهَا ، فَكَتَبَتْ إِلَيْهِمَا إِنَّهَا وَضَعَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِخَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ ، فَتَهَيَّأَتْ تَطْلُبُ الْخَيْرَ ، فَمَرَّ بِهَا أَبُو السَّنَابِلِ بْنُ بَعْكَكٍ ، فَقَالَ : قَدْ أَسْرَعْتِ اعْتَدِّي آخِرَ الْأَجَلَيْنِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا ، فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي ، قَالَ : وَفِيمَ ذَاكَ ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنْ وَجَدْتِ زَوْجًا صَالِحًا ، فَتَزَوَّجِي " .
´It was narrated that Masruq and 'Amr bin 'Utbah wrote to Subai'ah bint Harith, asking about her case.:` She wrote to them saying that she gave birth twenty-five days after her husband died. Then she prepared herself, seeking to remarry. Abu Sanabil bin Ba'kak passed by her and said: "You are in a hurry; observe waiting period for the longer period, four months and ten days." "So I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ) pray for forgiveness for me.' He said: 'Why is that.” I told him (what had happened). He said: 'If you find a righteous husband then marry him."'

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
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.

Nasai — Hadith 3550
´It was narrated from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah that 'Abdullah bin 'Utbah wrote to 'Umar bin 'Abdullah bin Al-Arqam Az-Zuhri, telling him:` "Go to Subai'ah bint Al-Harith Al-Aslamiyyah, and ask her about the ruling of the Messenger of Allah concerning her pregnancy." He said: "So 'Umar bin 'Abdullah went to her and asked her. She told him that she was married to Sa'd bin Khawlah, who was one of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah who had been present at Badr. He died during the Farewell Pilgrimage, and she gave birth before four months and ten days had passed since her husband's death. When her Nifas ended, Abu As-Sanabil -a man from Banu 'Abd Ad-Dar- went to her and saw that she had adorned herself. He said: 'Perhaps you want to get married before four months and ten days has passed?' She said: 'When I heard that from Abu As-Sanabil, I went to the Messenger of Allah and told him my story. The Messenger of Allah said: 'It is permissible for you to marry when you gave birth.''"
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.

Nasai — Hadith 3548
´'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah narrated that his father wrote to 'Umar bin 'Abdullah bin Arqam Az-Zuhri, telling him to go to Subai'ah bint Al-Harith Al-Aslamiyyah and ask her about her Hadith and what the Messenger of Allah had said to her when she consulted him. 'Umar bin 'Abdullah wrote back to 'Abdullah bin 'Utbah telling him that Subai'ah told him, that she was married to Sahl bin Khawlah -who was from Banu 'Amir bin Lu-ayy and was one of those who had been present at Badr- and her husband died during the Farewell Pilgrimage while she was pregnant. She gave birth soon after he died, and when her Nifas ended she adorned herself to receive proposals of marriage. Abu As-Sanabil bin Ba'kak -a man from Banu 'Abd Ad-Dar- went to her and said to her:` 'Why do I see you adorned? Perhaps you want to get married, but by Allah you will not get married until four months and ten days have passed.' Subai'ah said: 'When he said that to me, I put on my clothes in the evening and went to the Messenger of Allah and asked him about that. He ruled that it had become permissible for me to marry when I gave birth, and he told me to get married if I wanted to.'"
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
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).
