Muwatta Imam Malik (Riwayat Yahya)
كتاب الطلاقBook: On the Explanation of Divorce
بَابُ ظِهَارِ الْحُرِّZihar (declaring wife as unlawful) by a free man
Hadith 1157B1
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِي كَفَّارَةِ الْمُتَظَاهِرِ : «فَتَحْرِيرُ رَقَبَةٍ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَتَمَاسَّا» (سورة المجادلة آية 3) . «فَمَنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَصِيَامُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَتَمَاسَّا فَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَإِطْعَامُ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا» (سورة المجادلة آية 4) .
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: In the expiation for zihar, Allah the Exalted has said: "Those among you who do zihar to their wives must free a slave before having intercourse. If a slave is not available, then they must fast for two consecutive months before having intercourse. If they are unable to do that, then they must feed sixty needy people."
