من قال: عدة أم الولد حيضة
Those who said the waiting period of an umm walad is one menstrual cycle
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 19836 — Those who said the waiting period
١٩٨٣٦ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: نا الثقفي عن يحيى بن سعيد قال: سمعت القاسم وذكر له أن عبد الملك بن مروان فرق بين (رجال) (١) ونسائهم كن أمهات أولاد نكحن بعد حيضة أو حيضتين حتى (يعتددن) (٢) أربعة أشهر وعشرًا فقال: سبحان اللَّه! يقول اللَّه في كتابه: ﴿وَالَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَيَذَرُونَ أَزْوَاجًا﴾ [البقرة: ٢٣٤]، (أتراهن من الأزواج) (٣).
Yahya bin Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Someone mentioned before al-Qasim (may Allah have mercy on him) that Abd al-Malik bin Marwan (may Allah have mercy on him) had separated some men from their wives who had been umm walads of their masters, but who had been married off after one or two menstrual periods. Abd al-Malik bin Marwan's (may Allah have mercy on him) order was that they observe a waiting period of four months and ten days. Hearing this, al-Qasim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Subhan Allah! Allah Almighty says in the Qur'an: {And those of you who die and leave behind wives} [Al-Baqarah: 234]. So were these masters their husbands?
