٣٠٧٣١ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا أبو معاوية عن الأعمش عن أبي سفيان عن أشياخه أن امرأة غاب عنها زوجها ثم جاء وهي حامل فرفعها إلى عمر، فأمر برجمها فقال معاذ: إن يكن لك عليها سبيل فلا سبيل لك على ما في بطنها، فقال عمر: احبسوها حتى تضع، فوضعت غلامًا له ثنيتان، فلما رآه أبوه قال: ابني (ابني) (١) فبلغ ذلك عمر فقال: عجزت النساء أن يلدن مثل معاذ، لولا معاذ هلك عمر (٢).
Hazrat Abu Sufyan narrates from his elders that a woman's husband had disappeared, then he returned to find his wife pregnant. So he brought the woman before Hazrat Umar, who ordered her to be stoned. Upon this, Hazrat Mu'adh said: Even though you have justification against this woman, you have no justification against the child in her womb. So Hazrat Umar said: Imprison this woman until she gives birth. The woman gave birth to a child who had two teeth. When the father saw him, he said: My son, my son. This news reached Hazrat Umar, who said: Women have become incapable of giving birth to people like Mu'adh. If it were not for Mu'adh, Umar would have perished.
