Hadith 1300
أَخْبَرَنَا الشَّافِعِيُّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ: أَنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ بِنْتَ الْحَارِثِ وَضَعَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ فَمَرَّ بِهَا أَبُو السَّنَابِلِ بْنُ بَعْكَكٍ، فَقَالَ: قَدْ تَصَنَّعْتِ لِلْأَزْوَاجِ، إِنَّهَا أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرٌ، فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ سُبَيْعَةُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: "كَذَبَ أَبُو السَّنَابِلِ، أَوْ لَيْسَ كَمَا قَالَ أَبُو السَّنَابِلِ، قَدْ حَلَلْتِ فَتَزَوَّجِي" .
It is narrated from Abdullah bin Utbah that Sabi’ah bint Harith (may Allah be pleased with her) gave birth to a child a few days after the death of her husband. Abu Sanabil bin Ba’kak (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by her and said, “You have adorned yourself for marriage, while your waiting period (‘iddah) is four months and ten days.” Sabi’ah mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), so he (ﷺ) said: “Abu Sanabil has spoken incorrectly, or as Abu Sanabil said, the matter is not so. You have completed your ‘iddah, you may marry.”
Hadith 1301
أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ: سُئِلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: آخِرَ الْأَجَلَيْنِ، وَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: إِذَا وَلَدَتْ فَقَدْ حَلَّتْ. فَدَخَلَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ عَلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَتْ: وَلَدَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةُ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِنِصْفِ شَهْرٍ. فَخَطَبَهَا رَجُلَانِ: أَحَدُهُمَا شَابٌّ، وَالْآخَرُ كَهْلٌ، فَخُطِبَتْ إِلَى الشَّابِّ، فَقَالَ الْكَهْلُ: لَمْ تَحْلِلْ، وَكَانَ أَهْلُهَا غُيَّبًا، وَرَجَا إِذَا جَاءَ أَهْلُهَا أَنْ يُؤْثِرُوهُ بِهَا، فَجَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: "قَدْ حَلَلْتِ، فَانْكِحِي مَنْ شِئْتِ" .
Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman narrated that Ibn Abbas and Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with them) were asked about a pregnant woman whose husband passes away. Ibn Abbas said, "She must observe the longer of the two waiting periods." And Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "When she gives birth, her waiting period is over." Then Abu Salamah went to Umm al-Mu'mineen Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) and asked her about this issue. She said that Subai'ah al-Aslamiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) gave birth half a month after her husband's death. Two men sent her marriage proposals—one was young and the other was middle-aged. She sent a proposal to the young man. The middle-aged man said, "Your waiting period is not over yet," and her family was away. That man hoped that when her family returned, they would give him preference over the young man. When she came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), he said: "Your waiting period is over; you may marry whomever you wish."
Hadith 1302
أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ: أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ [ ص: 124 ] وَأَبَا سَلَمَةَ اخْتَلَفَا فِي الْمَرْأَةِ تَنْفَسُ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: آخِرَ الْأَجَلَيْنِ، وَقَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ: إِذَا نَفِسَتْ فَقَدْ حَلَّتْ. قَالَ: فَجَاءَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ، فَقَالَ: أَنَا مَعَ ابْنِ أَخِي، يَعْنِي: أَبَا سَلَمَةَ، فَبَعَثُوا كُرَيْبًا مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَجَاءَهُمْ فَأَخْبَرَهُمْ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: وَلَدَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةُ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ، فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَهَا: "قَدْ حَلَلْتِ فَانْكِحِي" .
It is narrated from Sulaiman bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) that Ibn Abbas and Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with them) differed regarding a woman whose husband died and she gave birth to a child a few days later. Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "She must observe the longer of the two waiting periods." But Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "When she experiences postnatal bleeding, her waiting period is over." Sulaiman said that Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) also arrived and said, "I am with my nephew, i.e., Abu Salamah (meaning my ruling is the same)." Finally, they sent Ibn Abbas’s freed slave, Kuraib, to Umm Salamah, and he asked her about this issue. Then he returned to them and reported that she said: Subai’ah (may Allah be pleased with her) gave birth to a child a few days after her husband’s death, and she mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), so he said to her: "Your waiting period is over, so you may marry."
Hadith 1303
أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ: أَنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةَ نَفِسَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ، فَجَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْهُ فِي أَنْ تَنْكِحَ فَأَذِنَ لَهَا.
It is narrated from Miswar bin Makhramah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sabi’ah Al-Aslamiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) gave birth to a child a few days after the death of her husband. Then she came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and sought permission to marry, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) granted her permission.
Hadith 1304
أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ: أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْمَرْأَةِ يُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا [ ص: 125 ] زَوْجُهَا وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: إِذَا وَضَعَتْ حَمْلَهَا فَقَدْ حَلَّتْ. فَأَخْبَرَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ: أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: لَوْ وَلَدَتْ وَزَوْجُهَا عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ لَمْ يُدْفَنْ لَحَلَّتْ. أَخْرَجَ الْأَوَّلَ مِنْ كِتَابِ الرِّسَالَةِ، وَإِلَى آخِرِ الْخَامِسِ مِنْ كِتَابِ الْعِدَدِ.
It is narrated from Nafi‘ that Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) was asked about a woman whose husband has died and she is pregnant. Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) said: When she gives birth, her ‘iddah will end. An Ansari man informed him that ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If a woman gives birth while her husband is still on the bed, not yet buried, even then her ‘iddah has ended.
