Chapter: Which husbands may perform li'an and which may not
Bayhaqi 15293 — Which husbands may perform li'an and which may not
قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: " لَمَّا ذَكَرَ اللهُ اللِّعَانَ عَلَى الْأَزْوَاجِ مُطْلَقًا كَانَ اللِّعَانُ عَلَى كُلِّ زَوْجٍ جَازَ طَلَاقُهُ وَلَزِمَهُ الْفَرْضُ، وَكَذَلِكَ عَلَى كُلِّ زَوْجَةٍ لَزِمَهَا الْفَرْضُ ".
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Since Allah Almighty mentioned li'an for husbands without qualification, li'an applies to every husband whose divorce is valid and upon whom the obligations are binding, and likewise to every wife upon whom the obligations are binding."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ، نا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، نا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، نا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: جَاءَ هِلَالُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ اللِّعَانِ بِطُولِهَا وَفِي آخِرِهَا قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلَّى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَوْلَا الْأَيْمَانُ لَكَانَ لِي وَلَهَا شَأْنٌ "، قَالَ الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ: فَسُمِّيَ اللِّعَانُ يَمِينًا.
Ikrimah narrates from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Hilal bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) came, and he mentioned the long story of li'an; at its end it says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Had the oaths not already taken place, I would have dealt with this woman." Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Li'an is also called an oath.
