Bayhaqi 2861 — Evidence that his wives ﷺ are among his household

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ، وَأَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ السُّلَمِيُّ مِنْ أَصْلِهِ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي قَالُوا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُكْرَمٍ، ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ شَرِيكِ بْنِ أَبِي نَمِرٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ: فِي بَيْتِي أُنْزِلَتْ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا} [الأحزاب: ٣٣] قَالَتْ: فَأَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى فَاطِمَةَ، وَعَلِيٍّ، وَالْحَسَنِ، وَالْحُسَيْنِ، فَقَالَ: " هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي " وَفِي حَدِيثِ الْقَاضِي وَالسُّلَمِيِّ: " هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي " قَالَتْ: فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَمَا أَنَا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ؟ قَالَ: " بَلَى إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى " قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ سَنَدُهُ ثِقَاتٌ رُوَاتُهُ. قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: " وَقَدْ رُوِيَ فِي شَوَاهِدِهِ، ثُمَّ فِي مُعَارَضَتِهِ أَحَادِيثُ لَا يَثْبُتُ مِثْلُهَا، وَفِي كِتَابِ اللهِ الْبَيَانُ لِمَا قَصَدْنَاهُ فِي إِطْلَاقِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْآلَ، وَمُرَادُهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَزْوَاجُهُ أَوْ هُنَّ دَاخِلَاتٌ فِيهِ.
Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) says that this verse was revealed in my house, namely: "Allah only wishes to remove impurity from you, O people of the household, and to purify you thoroughly" [Surah al-Ahzab: 33].
Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called Fatimah, Ali, Hasan and Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them) and said: "These are my household."
(b) In the hadith of al-Qadi and al-Sulami it is: "These are my family." The Mother of the Believers Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I said: "O Messenger of Allah, am I not among the household?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Of course, you are included too, if Allah wills."
(c) Imam al-Bayhaqi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that this hadith has supporting reports and also contrary ones, the like of which are not established. In the Book of Allah there is the clarification of what we intended; and from the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) unqualified mention of the 'Al' (family) while meaning his wives by it, it is known that they too are included in the 'Al'.
Abu Abdullah (al-Hakim) said: This hadith is sahih (authentic); its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
