Hadith 2114
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ فِرَاسٍ ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، فِي رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً فَمَاتَ عَنْهَا وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا وَلَمْ يَفْرِضْ لَهَا الصَّدَاقَ ، فَقَالَ : لَهَا الصَّدَاقُ كَامِلًا وَعَلَيْهَا الْعِدَّةُ وَلَهَا الْمِيرَاثُ ، فَقَالَ مَعْقِلُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " قَضَى بِهِ فِي بِرْوَعَ بِنْتِ وَاشِقٍ " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Masud: Masruq said on the authority of Abdullah ibn Masud: Abdullah (ibn Masud ) was asked about a man who had married a woman without cohabiting with her or fixing any dower for her till he died. Ibn Masud said: She should receive the full dower (as given to women of her class), observe the waiting period ('Iddah), and have her share of inheritance. Thereupon Maqil ibn Sinan said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ giving the same decision regarding Birwa daughter of Washiq (as the decision you have given).
Hadith 2116
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ خِلَاسٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ أُتِيَ فِي رَجُلٍ بِهَذَا الْخَبَرِ ، قَالَ : " فَاخْتَلَفُوا إِلَيْهِ شَهْرًا ، أَوْ قَالَ : مَرَّاتٍ ، قَالَ : فَإِنِّي أَقُولُ فِيهَا : إِنَّ لَهَا صَدَاقًا كَصَدَاقِ نِسَائِهَا لَا وَكْسَ وَلَا شَطَطَ ، وَإِنَّ لَهَا الْمِيرَاثَ وَعَلَيْهَا الْعِدَّةُ ، فَإِنْ يَكُ صَوَابًا فَمِنَ اللَّهِ ، وَإِنْ يَكُنْ خَطَأً فَمِنِّي وَمِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ ، وَاللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ بَرِيئَانِ ، فَقَامَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَشْجَعَ فِيهِمْ الْجَرَّاحُ وَ أَبُو سِنَانٍ ، فَقَالُوا : يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، نَحْنُ نَشْهَدُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَضَاهَا فِينَا فِي بِرْوَعَ بِنْتِ وَاشِقٍ ، وَإِنَّ زَوْجَهَا هِلَالُ بْنُ مُرَّةَ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ كَمَا قَضَيْتَ ، قَالَ : فَفَرِحَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَرَحًا شَدِيدًا حِينَ وَافَقَ قَضَاؤُهُ قَضَاءَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Masud: Abdullah ibn Utbah ibn Masud said: Abdullah ibn Masud was informed of this story of a man. The people continued to visit him for a month or visited him many times (the narrator was not sure). He said: In this matter I hold the opinion that she should receive the type of dower given to women of her class with no diminution or excess, observe the waiting period ('iddah) and have her share of inheritance. If it is erroneous, that is from me and from Satan. Allah and His Messenger are free from its responsibility. Some people from Ashja got up; among them were al-Jarrah and Abu Sinan. They said: Ibn Masud, we bear witness that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave a decision for us regarding Birwa, daughter of Washiq, to the same effect as the decision you have given. Her husband was Hilal ibn Murrah al-Ashjai. Thereupon Abdullah ibn Masud was very pleased when his decision agreed with the decision of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
