A narrator named Abu Sufyan reports: Some of our elders have narrated this: A man came to Sayyiduna Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "O Commander of the Faithful! I returned to my wife after two years, and she was pregnant." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) consulted the people about stoning the woman, so Sayyiduna Mu'adh ibn Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Commander of the Faithful! You can punish the woman, but you cannot punish the child in her womb, so leave her until she gives birth." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) left her, and she gave birth to a boy whose front teeth protruded outward, as a result of which the man realized the resemblance of the child to himself. He said, "By the Lord of the Ka'bah! This is my son." So Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Women have become incapable of giving birth to a child like Mu'adh. If it were not for Mu'adh, Umar would have perished."

She has given birth to three children in twelve years, each of whom remained in their mother's womb for four years."

Hashim bin Yahya narrates: Once Malik bin Dinar was sitting, when a man came to him and said, "O Abu Yahya! Pray for this woman who has been pregnant for four years and is in severe pain." Malik bin Dinar became angry, closed the Mushaf, and said, "These people think we are prophets." Then he recited some verses, then prayed and said, "O Allah! If there is air in the woman's womb, then remove it now, and if there is a girl in her womb, then change her into a boy, for You can erase whom You will and keep whom You will; the Mother of the Book is with You." Then Malik bin Dinar raised his hands, and the people also raised their hands. Meanwhile, a messenger came to that man and said, "Go to your wife." The man left, and before Malik bin Dinar had lowered his hands, the man entered through the door of the mosque carrying a child in his arms, who had curly hair, was about four years old, had all his teeth, but his umbilical cord had not been cut.
