حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ الْمَعْنَى ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ ، قَالَ ابْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ابْنِ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ : عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ صَخْرٍ ، قَالَ ابْنُ الْعَلَاءِ الْبَيَاضِيُّ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ امْرَأً أُصِيبُ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ مَا لَا يُصِيبُ غَيْرِي ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ خِفْتُ أَنْ أُصِيبَ مِنَ امْرَأَتِي شَيْئًا يُتَابَعُ بِي حَتَّى أُصْبِحَ ، فَظَاهَرْتُ مِنْهَا حَتَّى يَنْسَلِخَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ ، فَبَيْنَمَا هِيَ تَخْدُمُنِي ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ إِذْ تَكَشَّفَ لِي مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ ، فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ أَنْ نَزَوْتُ عَلَيْهَا ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ خَرَجْتُ إِلَى قَوْمِي فَأَخْبَرْتُهُمُ الْخَبَرَ ، وَقُلْتُ : امْشُوا مَعِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالُوا : لَا وَاللَّهِ ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ : " أَنْتَ بِذَاكَ يَا سَلَمَةُ " ، قُلْتُ : أَنَا بِذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَرَّتَيْنِ ، وَأَنَا صَابِرٌ لِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ ، فَاحْكُمْ فِيَّ مَا أَرَاكَ اللَّهُ ، قَالَ : " حَرِّرْ رَقَبَةً " ، قُلْتُ : وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا أَمْلِكُ رَقَبَةً غَيْرَهَا وَضَرَبْتُ صَفْحَةَ رَقَبَتِي ، قَالَ : " فَصُمْ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ " ، قَالَ : وَهَلْ أَصَبْتُ الَّذِي أَصَبْتُ إِلَّا مِنَ الصِّيَامِ ، قَالَ : " فَأَطْعِمْ وَسْقًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ بَيْنَ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا " ، قُلْتُ : وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ ، لَقَدْ بِتْنَا وَحْشَيْنِ مَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ ، قَالَ : " فَانْطَلِقْ إِلَى صَاحِبِ صَدَقَةِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ فَلْيَدْفَعْهَا إِلَيْكَ ، فَأَطْعِمْ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا وَسْقًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ ، وَكُلْ أَنْتَ وَعِيَالُكَ بَقِيَّتَهَا " ، فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى قَوْمِي ، فَقُلْتُ : وَجَدْتُ عِنْدَكُمُ الضِّيقَ وَسُوءَ الرَّأْيِ وَوَجَدْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ السَّعَةَ وَحُسْنَ الرَّأْيِ ، وَقَدْ أَمَرَنِي ، أَوْ أَمَرَ لِي ، بِصَدَقَتِكُمْ ، زَادَ ابْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، قَالَ ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ : بَيَاضَةُ بَطْنٌ مِنْ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ .
Narrated Salamah ibn Sakhr al-Bayadi: I was a man who was more given than others to sexual intercourse with women. When the month of Ramadan came, I feared lest I should have intercourse with my wife, and this evil should remain with me till the morning. So I made my wife like my mother's back to me till the end of Ramadan. But one night when she was waiting upon me, something of her was revealed. Suddenly I jumped upon her. When the morning came I went to my people and informed them about this matter. I said: Go along with me to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. They said: No, by Allah. So I went to the Prophet (peace be upon him and informed him of the matter. He said: Have you really committed it, Salamah? I said: I committed it twice, Messenger of Allah. I am content with the Commandment of Allah, the Exalted; so take a decision about me according to what Allah has shown you. He said: Free a slave. I said: By Him Who sent you with truth, I do not possess a neck other than this: and I struck the surface of my neck. He said: Then fast two consecutive months. I said: Whatever I suffered is due to fasting. He said: Feed sixty poor people with a wasq of dates. I said: By Him Who sent you with truth, we passed the night hungry; there was no food in our house. He said: Then go to the collector of sadaqah of Banu Zurayq; he must give it to you. Then feed sixty poor people with a wasq of dates; and you and your family eat the remaining dates. Then I came back to my people, and said (to them): I found with you poverty and bad opinion; and I found with the Prophet ﷺ prosperity and good opinion. He has commanded me to give alms to you. Ibn al-Ala added: Ibn Idris said: Bayadah is a sub-clan of Banu Zurayq.
