اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ وَاللَّفْظُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ ، قَالَ : أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، قَالَ : سُئِلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا ، وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ ، قَالَ : ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : آخِرُ الْأَجَلَيْنِ ، وَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : إِذَا وَلَدَتْ فَقَدْ حَلَّتْ ، فَدَخَلَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ : " وَلَدَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةُ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِنِصْفِ شَهْرٍ ، فَخَطَبَهَا رَجُلَانِ : أَحَدُهُمَا شَابٌّ ، وَالْآخَرُ كَهْلٌ ، فَحَطَّتْ إِلَى الشَّابِّ ، فَقَالَ الْكَهْلُ : لَمْ تَحْلِلْ ، وَكَانَ أَهْلُهَا غُيَّبًا ، فَرَجَا إِذَا جَاءَ أَهْلُهَا أَنْ يُؤْثِرُوهُ بِهَا ، فَجَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : " قَدْ حَلَلْتِ ، فَانْكِحِي مَنْ شِئْتِ " .
´It was narrated that Abu Salamah said:` "Ibn 'Abbas and Abu Hurairah were asked about the woman whose husband dies when she is pregnant. Ibn 'Abbas said: '(She should wait) for the longer of the two periods.' Abu Hurairah said: 'When she gives birth it becomes permissible for her to marry.' Abu Salamah went to Umm Salamah and asked her about that, and she said: 'Subai'ah Al-Aslamiyyah gave birth half a month after her husband died, and two men proposed to her. One was young and one was old, and she was inclined toward the young one. So the old one said: It is not permissible for you to marry. Her family was not there, and he hoped that if he went to her family they would marry her to him. She went to the Messenger of Allah and he said: It is permissible for you to marry, so marry whomever you want.'"

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
One should not act with partiality in any fatwa or judgment on the basis of personal inclination. If there is a risk of bias, the judge (qadi) should not preside over the case; rather, another judge who can decide impartially should hear the case.

Nasai — Hadith 3541
´Abu Salamah bin 'Abdur-Rahman said:` "It was said to Ibn 'Abbas concerning a woman who gives birth one day after her husband died: 'Can she get married?' He said: 'No, not until the longer of the two periods has ended.' He said: 'Allah says: And for those who are pregnant (whether they are divorced or their husbands are dead), their 'Iddah (prescribed period) is until they lay down their burden.' He said: 'That only applies in the case of divorce.' Abu Hurairah said: 'I agree with my brother's son' --meaning, Abu Salamah. He sent his slave Kuraib and told him: 'Go to Umm Salamah and ask her: Was this the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah?' He came back and said: 'Yes, Subai'ah Al-Aslamiyyah gave birth twenty days after her husband died, and the Messenger of Allah told her to get married, and Abu As-Sanabil was one of those who proposed marriage to her.'"
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Urdu marginal note:
Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu was of the opinion that the waiting period (iddah) of mourning is obligatory in every case, as well as the completion of childbirth (for a pregnant widow). However, since the statement of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was different from this, Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu retracted his opinion. Radi Allahu anhu wa ardaahu.
