Fatima bint Qais reported that her husband divorced her during the life time of Allah's Prophet (ﷺ) and gave her a meagre maintenance allowance. When she saw that, she said: By Allah, I will inform Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , and if maintenance allowance is due to me then I will accept that which will suffice me, and if it is not due to me, I will not accept anything from him. She said: I made a mention of that to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and he said: There is neither maintenance allowance for you nor lodging.

Fatima bint Qais reported that her husband al-Makhzumi divorced her and refused to pay her maintenance allowance. So she came to Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) and informed him, whereupon he said: There is no maintenance allowance for you, and you better go to the house of Ibn Umm Maktum and live with him for he is a blind man and you can put off your clothes in his house (i. e. you shall not face much difficulty in observing purdah there).

Abu Salama reported that Fatima bint Qais, the sister of al-Dahhak bin Qais informed him that Abu Hafs bin Mughira al-Makhzumi divorced her three times and then he proceeded on to the Yemen. The members of his family said to her: There is no maintenance allowance due to you from us. Khalid bin Walid along with a group of persons visited Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in the house of Maimuna and they said: Abu Hafs has divorced his wife with three pronouncements; is there any maintenance allowance due to her? Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: No maintenance allowance is due to her, but she is required to spend the 'Idda; and he sent her the message that she should not be hasty in making a decision about herself and commanded her to move to the house of Umm Sharik, and then sent her the message that as the first immigrants (frequently) visit the house of Umm Sharik, she should better go to the house of Ibn Umm Maktum, the blind, (and further said: In case you put off your head-dress, he (Ibn Umm Makhtum) will not see you. So she went to his house, and when the 'Idda was over, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) married her to Usama bin Zaid bin Haritha.

Yahya bin Ayyub, Qutaybah bin Sa‘id, and Ibn Hajar narrated to us the hadith, they said: Isma‘il, that is, Ibn Ja‘far narrated to us from Muhammad bin ‘Amr, he narrated to us from Abu Salamah, he narrated from Fatimah bint Qays (may Allah be pleased with her). Likewise, Abu Bakr bin Abi Shaybah narrated to us, (he said:) Muhammad bin Bishr narrated to us, (he said:) Muhammad bin ‘Amr narrated to us with the rest of the previous chain: (Abu Salamah said:) I wrote this hadith after hearing it from the mouth of Fatimah bint Qays (may Allah be pleased with her), she said: I was with a man from Banu Makhzum. He gave me three divorces, so I sent a message to his family, demanding maintenance from them... Then all of them narrated from Abu Salamah the hadith similar to that of Yahya bin Abi Kathir, except that in the hadith of Muhammad bin ‘Amr it is: "Do not leave us behind (in your marriage matter) without consulting us."

Hassan ibn Ali al-Hulwani and Abd ibn Humaid, both from Ya'qub ibn Ibrahim ibn Sa'd, narrated to us; my father narrated to us, from Salih, from Ibn Shihab, that Abu Salamah ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf informed him: that Fatimah bint Qays informed him: that she was married to Abu Amr ibn Hafs ibn al-Mughira, and he divorced her with the last of three divorces. She claimed that she went to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, seeking his verdict regarding her leaving her house, "so he ordered her to move to Ibn Umm Maktum, the blind man." Marwan refused to believe her regarding the divorced woman leaving her house, and Urwah said: Aisha rejected that from Fatimah bint Qays.

'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah bin 'Utba reported that 'Amr bin Hafs bin al-Mughirahh set out along with ' Ali Ibn Abi Talib (RA) to the Yemen and sent to his wife the one pronouncement of divorce which was still left from the (irrevocable) divorce; and he commanded al-Harith bin Hisham and 'Ayyash bin Abu Rabi'a to give her maintenance allowance. They said to her: By Allah, there is no maintenance allowance for you, except in case you are pregnant. She came to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) (may peace he upon him) and mentioned their opinion to him, whereupon he said: There is no maintenance allowance for you. Then she sought permission to move (to another place), and he (the Holy Prophet) permitted her. She said: Allah's Messenger, where (should I go)? He said: To the house of Ibn Umm Maktum and, as he is blind, she could put off her garmeqts in his presence and he would not see her. And when her 'Idda was over. Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) married her to Usama bin Zaid. Marwan (the governor of Madinah) sent Qabisa bin Dhuwaib in order to ask her about this hadith, and she narrated it to him, whereupon Marwan said: We have not heard this hadith but from a woman. We would adopt a safe (path) where we found the people. Fatima said that when these words of, Marwan were conveyed to her. There is between me and you the word of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic: Do "not turn them out" of their houses. She asserted: This is in regard to the revocable divorce what new (turn can the event take) after three pronouncements (separation between irrevocable). Why do you say there is no maintenance allowance for her if she is not pregnant? Then on what ground do you restrain her?

Sha'bi reported: I visited Fatima bint Qais and asked her about the verdict of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) about (board and lodging during the 'Idda) and she said that her husband divorced her with an irrevocable divorce. She (further said): I contended with him before Allah's Messerger (ﷺ) about lodging and maintenance allowance, and she said: He did not provide me with any lodging or maintenance allowance, and he commanded me to spend the 'Idda in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum.

A hadith like this has been trarismitted on the authority of Hushaim through another chain of narrators.

Sha'bi reported: We visited Fitima hint Qais and she served us fresh dates and a drink of barley flour, and I asked where should a woman who has been divorced by three pronouncements, spend the period of her 'Idda. She said: My husband divorced me with three pronouncements, and Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) permitted me to spend my 'Idda period in my family (with my parents).

Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) reported from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) that there is no lodging and maintenance allowance for a woman who has been given irrevocable divorce.

Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) reported: My husband divorced me with three pronouncements. I decided to move (from his house to another place). So I came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , and he said: Move to the house of your cousin 'Amr bin Umm Maktum and spend your period of 'Idda there.

Abu Ishaq reported: I was with al-Aswad bin Yazid sitting in the great mosque, and there was with us al-Sha'bi, and he narrated the narration of Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not make any provision for lodging and maintenance allowance for her. Al-Aswad caught hold of some pebbles in his fist and he threw them towards him saying: Woe be to thee, you narrate like it, whereas Umar said: We cannot abandon the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of our Apostle (ﷺ) for the words of a woman. We do not know whether she remembers that or she forgets. For her, there is a provision of lodging and maintenance allowance. Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, said: "Turn them not from their houses nor should they themselves go forth unless they commit an open indecency" (lxv. 1).

Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) reported that her husband divorced her with three pronouncements and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) made no provision for her lodging and maintenance allowance. She (further said): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me: When your period of 'Idda is over, inform me. So I informed him. (By that time) Mu'awiyah, Abu Jahm and Usama bin Zaid had given her the proposal of marriage. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: So far as Mu'awiyah is concerned, he is a poor man without any property. So far as Abu Jahm is concerned, he is a great beater of women, but Usama bin Zaid... She pointed with her hand that she did not approve of the idea of marrying Usama. But Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon himn) said: Obedience to Allah and obedience to His Messenger is better for thee. She said: So I married him, and I became an object of envy.

Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) reported: My husband Abu 'Amr bin Hafs bin al-Mughirahh sent 'Ayyish bin Abu Rabi'a to me with a divorce, and he also sent through him five sa's of dates and five sa's of barley. I said: Is there no maintenance allowance for me but only this, and I cannot even spend my 'Idda period in your house? He said: No. She said: I dressed myself and came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) . He said: How many pronouncements of divorce have been made for you? I said: Three. He said what he ('Ayyish bin Abu Rabi'a) had stated was true. There is no maintenance allowance for you. Spend 'Idda period in the house of your cousin, Ibn Umm Maktum. He is blind and you can put off your garment in his presence. And when you have spent your Idda period, you inform me. She said: Mu'awiyah and Abu'l-Jahm (RA) were among those who had given me the proposal of marriage. Thereupon Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) said: Mu'awiyah is destitute and in poor condition and Abu'l-Jahm is very harsh with women (or he beats women, or like that), you should take Usama bin Zaid (as your husband).

Abu Bakr (RA) bin Abu'l-Jahm reported: I and Abu Salama b 'Abdul Rahman came to fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) and asked her (about divorce, etc.). She said: I was the wife of Abu 'Amr bin Hafs bin al-Mughirah, and he set out to join the battle of Najran. The rest of the hadith is the same, but he made this addition: "She said: I married him and Allah hornoured me on account of Ibn Zaid and Allah favoured me because of him."

Abu Bakr (RA) reported: I and Abu Salama came to Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) during the time of Ibn Zubair (RA) and she narrated to us that her husband gave her an irrevocable divorce. (The rest of the hadith is the same.)

Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) reported: My husband divorced me with three pronouncements and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) made no provision for lodging and maintenance allowance.

Fatima bint Qais (Allah be pleased with her) reported that she said: Allah's Messenger, my husband has divorced me with three pronouncements and I am afraid that I may be put to hardship, and so he commanded her and so she moved (to another house).

Ibn Buraida narrated to us, he said: ‘Aamir bin Shurahbil Sha’bi, who belonged to the tribe of Sha’b Hamdan, narrated to me, he asked the sister of Dhahhak bin Qais (may Allah be pleased with him), Lady Fatima bint Qais (may Allah be pleased with her), who was among the earliest emigrants, to narrate to him a hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) which she had heard directly from him. She said: “Alright, if you wish, I will narrate it.” He said: “Yes, narrate it.” Lady Fatima (may Allah be pleased with her) said: “I was married to Ibn Mughirah, and he was among the best young men of Quraysh at that time. Then he was martyred in the first battle with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). When I became a widow, ‘Abdur Rahman bin ‘Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) came with some of the companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and proposed marriage to me. And the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a proposal for his freed slave Usamah bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him). And I had heard this hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): ‘Whoever loves me should also love Usamah (may Allah be pleased with him).’ When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke to me about this, I said: ‘The matter is in your hands, O Messenger of Allah, marry me to whomever you wish.’ He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Go to the house of Umm Sharik.’ Umm Sharik was a wealthy woman among the Ansar and used to spend a lot in the way of Allah, and guests would stay with her. I said: ‘Very well, I will go to Umm Sharik.’ Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Do not go to Umm Sharik, for many guests come to her, and I dislike that your veil may fall or your shins become uncovered and people see from your body what you would dislike. Go to your cousin ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr ibn Umm Maktum, who was from Banu Fihr, a branch of Quraysh, and Lady Fatima (may Allah be pleased with her) was also from that tribe.’ Then Lady Fatima said: ‘So I went to his house. When my waiting period (‘iddah) was over, I heard the voice of a caller, and it was the caller of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), calling: ‘Gather for prayer.’ I also went out towards the mosque and prayed with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I was in the row in which the women were behind the people. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, he sat on the pulpit and was smiling. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Let everyone remain in his place of prayer.’ Then he said: ‘Do you know why I have gathered you?’ The companions said: ‘Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best.’ He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘By Allah, I have not gathered you to encourage or to frighten you, but rather because Tamim Dari, who was a Christian, came, pledged allegiance, became Muslim, and narrated to me a hadith which agrees with what I used to tell you about the Dajjal. He narrated that he (i.e., Tamim) boarded a ship with thirty men from the tribes of Lakhm and Judham. The sea waves played with them for a month. Then they landed on the shore of an island towards the setting sun. They boarded a small boat and entered the island. There they met a beast with a thick tail, very hairy, so much so that its front and back could not be distinguished due to the abundance of hair. The people said to it: ‘Woe to you, what are you?’ It said: ‘I am a spy.’ The people said: ‘What is a spy?’ It said: ‘Go to that man in the monastery, for he is very eager to know your news.’ Tamim (may Allah be pleased with him) said: ‘When it mentioned the man, we were afraid of it, lest it be a devil. Tamim said: ‘Then we hurriedly entered the monastery. There we saw a man of great stature, the likes of whom we had never seen, and he was bound very tightly. His hands were tied to his neck, and his legs were shackled from the knees to the ankles with iron. We said: ‘Woe to you, what are you?’ He said: ‘You have come to know about me, now tell me about yourselves, who are you?’ The people said: ‘We are Arabs, we boarded a ship, but when we set sail, we found the sea in turmoil, and the waves played with us for a month. Then we landed on this island, boarded a small boat, and entered the island. We met a beast with a thick tail and very hairy, so much so that we could not distinguish its front from its back due to the abundance of hair. We said to it: ‘Woe to you, what are you?’ It said: ‘I am a spy.’ We said: ‘What is a spy?’ It said: ‘Go to that man in the monastery, for he is very eager to know your news.’ So we hurried to you, fearing it might be a demon.’ Then that man said: ‘Tell me about the date palms of Baisan.’ We said: ‘What do you want to know about them?’ He said: ‘I am asking about their fruiting, do they bear fruit?’ We said: ‘Yes, they bear fruit.’ He said: ‘Be informed, soon they will not bear fruit.’ He said: ‘Tell me about the lake of Tabariyyah (Tiberias).’ We said: ‘What do you want to know about it?’ He said: ‘Is there water in it?’ The people said: ‘There is plenty of water in it.’ He said: ‘Indeed, its water will soon dry up.’ Then he said: ‘Tell me about the spring of Zughar.’ The people said: ‘What do you want to know about it?’ He said: ‘Is there water in that spring, and do the people irrigate their crops with it?’ We said: ‘Yes, there is plenty of water in it, and the people irrigate their crops with it.’ He said: ‘Tell me about the Prophet of the unlettered (Ummiyeen), what has he done?’ The people said: ‘He has come out from Makkah and settled in Madinah.’ He said: ‘Did the Arabs fight him?’ We said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘How did he deal with them?’ We said: ‘He prevailed over those Arabs around him, and they obeyed him.’ He said: ‘Has it really happened?’ We said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘Be informed, it is better for them to obey him. And now I tell you about myself: I am the Messiah (Dajjal), and the time is near when I will be permitted to come out. When I am allowed, I will travel and will not leave any town except that I will enter it within forty nights, except Makkah and Taybah (Madinah), for they are forbidden to me. Whenever I try to enter either of them, an angel with a drawn sword will confront me and prevent me from entering, and there will be angels guarding every path of them.’ Lady Fatima (may Allah be pleased with her) said: ‘Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) struck the pulpit with his staff and said: ‘This is Taybah, this is Taybah, this is Taybah,’ meaning Madinah. Beware! Have I not told you about this before?’ The companions said: ‘Yes.’ The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘I liked the story of Tamim (may Allah be pleased with him) because it agrees with what I have told you about the Dajjal, Madinah, and Makkah. Beware! He is in the sea of Sham or Yemen? No, rather he is in the east, he is in the east, he is in the east (to the east is the Indian Ocean, perhaps Dajjal is on an island in the Indian Ocean), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) pointed towards the east.’ Lady Fatima bint Qais (may Allah be pleased with her) said: ‘I have remembered this hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).’

Al-Sha'bi reported: We visited Fatima bin Qais and she served us fresh dates which are called rutab and she also served us barley. I asked her about that woman in whose case three divorces had been pronounced as to how much time she should count as the waiting period. She said: My husband pronounced three divorces in my case and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) permitted me to spend any waiting period in my family. (It was during this period) that announcement was made for the people to observe prayer in the bigger Mosque. I went there along with people and I was in the front row meant for women and it was adjacent to the last row of men and I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) deliver sermon sitting on the pulpit. He said: The cousin of Tamim (Dari) sailed in the ocean. The rest of the hadith is the same but with this addition: "(I see) as if I am looking to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) pointing his rod towards the land (and saying): It is Taiba, i. e. Madinah."

Tamim Dari came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and informed Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) that he sailed in an ocean and his ship lost direction and thus landed at an island. They moved about in that land in search of water. There they saw a person who had been pulling his hair. The rest of the hadith is the same. And he (Dajjal) said: If I were to be permitted to set out I would have covered all the lands except Taiba. Then Allah's Messerger (ﷺ) brought (Tamim Dari) before the public and he narrated to them and said: That is Taiba and that is the Dajjal.

Fatima bin Qais reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) sat on the pulpit and said: O people, Tamim Dari has reported to me that some persons of his tribe sailed in the ocean in a boat and it capsised and then some of them travelled on one of the planks of the boat and they went to an island in the ocean. The rest of the hadith is the same.
