Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with both of them) states that the term "time" is sometimes also applied to morning and evening.

Hazrat Ata bin Saib narrates from one of these persons that I asked Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that I have taken an oath that I will not speak to a person for a certain period (of time)? He recited the verse of the Holy Qur'an { تُؤْتِیْٓ اُکُلَھَا کُلَّ حِیْنٍ بِاِذْنِ رَبِّھَا } and said: By the word "Hīn" is meant one year.

Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Harmalah narrates that a person asked Hazrat Saeed bin Al-Musayyib, "I have taken an oath that I will not speak to my wife for a certain period; what should I do?" He replied, "By 'al-hin' is meant the period from when the dates become visible until they ripen, and the period from when they ripen until they become apparent." Hazrat Saeed then recited from { ضَرَبَ اللّٰہُ مَثَلًا کَلِمَۃً } to { تُؤْتِیْٓ اُکُلَھَا کُلَّ حِیْنٍ بِاِذْنِ رَبِّھَا }.

Hazrat Sha’bah says that I asked Hazrat Hakam and Hazrat Hammad: A person has sworn an oath that he will not speak to another person for “zamana” (a period of time) and “waqt” (time)? They replied: By “al-hin” is meant one year.
