قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ : حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى : وَلا يَعْصِينَكَ فِي مَعْرُوفٍ - قَالَ : هُوَ النَّوْحُ .
هَذَا مُرْسَلٌ ، حَسَنُ الْإِسْنَادِ .

قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ : حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ، ثَنَا مِنْدَلٌ ، عَنِ الْكَلْبِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا - ، قَالَ : أَسْلَمَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - ، وَتَأَخَّرَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ فِي الْمُشْرِكِينَ ، فَأَنْزَلَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : وَلا تُمْسِكُوا بِعِصَمِ الْكَوَافِرِ - يَقُولُ : إِنْ أَسْلَمَ رَجُلٌ وَأَبَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ ، فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ إِنْ شَاءَ أَرْبَعًا سِوَاهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) accepted Islam while his wife stayed behind among the polytheists. On this occasion Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this command: "And do not hold on to marriage ties with disbelieving women" [Surah al-Mumtahanah: 10], the meaning of which is: "If a man accepts Islam and his wife refuses (to accept Islam), then that husband may, if he wishes, marry four women besides her."
The chain of this report contains Muhammad bin al-Sa'ib al-Kalbi, who is a liar and matruk al-hadith (abandoned in hadith); therefore this report is weak in its chain.

وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، ثَنَا قَيْسُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ ، عَنِ الْأَغَرِّ بْنِ الصَّبَّاحِ ، عَنْ خَلِيفَةَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي نَصْرٍ الْأَسَدِيِّ ، قَالَ : سُئِلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا - : كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمْتَحِنُ النِّسَاءَ ؟ قَالَ : كَانَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَتَتْهُ الْمَرْأَةُ لِتُسْلِمَ حَلَّفَهَا بِاللهِ مَا خَرَجْتِ بُغْضَ زَوْجِكِ ، وَبِاللهِ مَا خَرَجْتِ الْتِمَاسَ دُنْيَا ، وَبِاللهِ مَا خَرَجْتِ رَغْبَةً فِي أَرْضٍ إِلَى أَرْضٍ ، وَبِاللهِ مَا خَرَجْتِ إِلَّا حُبًّا لِلهِ تَعَالَى وَرَسُولِهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .
It is narrated from Abu Nasr al-Asadi that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) was asked: How did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) test the women (who came as emigrants)? He replied: Whenever a woman came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) to accept Islam, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would make her swear by Allah with these words: "By Allah, you have not come out (of your home) out of any hatred or enmity towards your husband; and by Allah, you have not come out seeking some worldly benefit; and by Allah, you have not come out out of desire to leave one land (region) for another; and by Allah, you have come out only out of love for Allah Almighty and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)."

Amir bin Abdullah bin al-Zubayr narrates from his father, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both), that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) had divorced his wife Qutaylah in the Days of Ignorance; she was the mother of Sayyidah Asma' bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her). Then she came to them during the interim period (the truce of Hudaybiyah) that was agreed between the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and the disbelievers of Quraysh. She brought earrings and some other things as gifts for Sayyidah Asma' (may Allah be pleased with her), but she refrained from accepting them until she came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned it to him. Then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: "Allah does not forbid you from those who did not fight you over religion" [Surah al-Mumtahanah: 8]. These are the words of Abu Dawud.
And in the other narration: Qutaylah bint Abd al-Uzza bin Asad, who belonged to Banu Malik bin Hisl, came to her daughter Sayyidah Asma' bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her) with some gifts, which included lizards (lizard meat), clarified butter and dried cheese. But she did not accept her gifts, nor did she let her enter her house. Then Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this matter on her behalf, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah does not forbid you (from being kind to) those who did not fight you over religion", as Allah Almighty says: "Allah does not forbid you from those who did not fight you over religion" [Surah al-Mumtahanah: 8]. So after that she let her mother into her house and accepted her gifts as well.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Hatib bin Abi Balta'ah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote a letter to the people of Makkah, and Allah Almighty informed His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of the matter. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Ali and Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) in pursuit of the letter. The two of them caught up with the woman who was riding a camel (carrying the letter); then they took the letter out of the braids of her hair and brought it to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for Hatib (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked: "O Hatib, did you write this letter?" He said: Yes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What led you to this act?" He said: O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, I am sincere and well-wishing towards Allah Almighty and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him); but in Makkah I had no clan or protector, while my family lived among those very people, so I was afraid (for their lives and property). So I wrote a letter which could not harm Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in any way, and (my aim was that) perhaps it would prove beneficial for my family (in protecting them from the harm of the people of Makkah). Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) (on hearing this) drew his sword and said: O Messenger of Allah, give me power over Hatib so that I may strike off his head, for he has committed disbelief (an act like it). Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Ibn al-Khattab, what do you know? Perhaps Allah Almighty looked upon the people of Badr and said: Do whatever you wish, for I have certainly forgiven you."
Its chain is sahih (authentic). Al-Humaydi mentioned, on the authority of al-Barqani, that Imam Muslim recorded it. Al-Humaydi says that Khalaf and Abu Mas'ud did not mention it. I (the author) say that Imam Muslim recorded several other hadith besides this one with this same chain.
