حَدَّثَنِي حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ
أَبِي الزِّنَادِ ، عَنْ
سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، أَنَّ نُفَيْعًا مُكَاتَبًا كَانَ لِأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَوْ عَبْدًا لَهَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَهُ امْرَأَةٌ حُرَّةٌ، فَطَلَّقَهَا اثْنَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُرَاجِعَهَا، فَأَمَرَهُ أَزْوَاجُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ
عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ ، فَيَسْأَلَهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَلَقِيَهُ عِنْدَ الدَّرَجِ آخِذًا بِيَدِ
زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ ، فَسَأَلَهُمَا، فَابْتَدَرَاهُ جَمِيعًا، فَقَالَا :
" حَرُمَتْ عَلَيْكَ، حَرُمَتْ عَلَيْكَ "
It is narrated from Sulayman bin Yasar that Nafi’, who was either a mukatab or a slave of Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her), had a free woman in his marriage. He gave her two divorces and then wanted to take her back. The wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him) instructed him to go and ask Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) about the matter. He went to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) at Darj (a place in Madinah), and he was holding the hand of Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him). When he asked about the matter, both of them said: That woman has become unlawful for you.
