أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، أَنَّ رَجُلا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلا رَأَى مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلا يَقْتُلُهُ فَتَقْتُلُونَهُ ، أَمْ كَيْفَ يَفْعَلُ بِهِ ؟ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلا مَا ذِكْرُ فِي الْقُرْآنِ مِنَ الْمُتَلاعِنِينَ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " قَدْ قُضِيَ فِيكَ ، وَفِي امْرَأَتِكَ " . قَالَ : فَتَلاعَنَا وَأَنَا شَاهِدٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ . فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِِنْ أَمْسِكُهَا فَقَدْ كَذَبْتُ عَلَيْهَا فَفَارَقَهَا ، فَكَانَتْ سُنَّةٌ بَعْدُ أَنْ يُفَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الْمُتَلاعِنِينَ ، فَكَانَتْ حَامِلا فَأَنْكَرَ حَمْلَهَا ، وَكَانَ ابْنُهَا يُدْعَى إِِلَيْهَا ، ثُمَّ جَرَتِ السُّنَّةُ فِي الْمِيرَاثِ أَنْ يَرِثَهَا وَتَرِثُ مِنْهُ مَا فَرَضَ اللَّهُ لَهَا .
Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), what is your opinion about a person who finds another man with his wife and kills him? Will you people (in retaliation) kill him? What should such a person do? (The narrator says) Then Allah Almighty mentioned in the Qur’an that which pertains to those who perform li’an (mutual cursing). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to that man: The decision has been made between you and your wife. The narrator says: So both of them performed li’an. I was present with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) at that time. That man said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! If even now I keep this woman with me, it would mean that I have falsely accused her. So that man separated from the woman. (The narrator says) After that, this method became established that separation is made between those who perform li’an. The woman was pregnant, and the man had denied the pregnancy of the woman, so the child of that woman was attributed to his mother. After that, this method continued in inheritance as well, that the child would become the heir of the woman, and the woman would become the heir of the child, according to the share that Allah Almighty had prescribed for her.
