Hadith 540

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ، عَنْ حَفْصَةَ بِنْتِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ بِنَحْوِهِ . قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَجَابِرٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : وَحَدِيثُ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ . وَقَدْ ذَهَبَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ إِلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ، وَرَخَّصَ لِلنِّسَاءِ فِي الْخُرُوجِ إِلَى الْعِيدَيْنِ وَكَرِهَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ . وَرُوِي عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : أَكْرَهُ الْيَوْمَ الْخُرُوجَ لِلنِّسَاءِ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ ، فَإِنْ أَبَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ إِلَّا أَنْ تَخْرُجَ فَلْيَأْذَنْ لَهَا زَوْجُهَا أَنْ تَخْرُجَ فِي أَطْمَارِهَا الْخُلْقَانِ وَلَا تَتَزَيَّنْ ، فَإِنْ أَبَتْ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ كَذَلِكَ فَلِلزَّوْجِ أَنْ يَمْنَعَهَا عَنِ الْخُرُوجِ . وَيُرْوَى عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، قَالَتْ : لَوْ رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أَحْدَثَ النِّسَاءُ لَمَنَعَهُنَّ الْمَسْجِدَ كَمَا مُنِعَتْ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ . وَيُرْوَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ أَنَّهُ كَرِهَ الْيَوْمَ الْخُرُوجَ لِلنِّسَاءِ إِلَى الْعِيدِ .

Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
1:
From the wording of the narrations reported on this subject, there is a strong emphasis on women going to the Eid prayer ground. In one narration, the word ((أَمَرَنَا)) “He commanded us” is used, and in another, ((أُمِرْنَا)) “We were commanded” is used. Furthermore, since everyone agrees on women going out for Hajj and other worldly gatherings, then all these interpretations (ta’wilat) regarding going out for the Eid prayer ground are baseless. Yes, the conditions (shurut) should be strictly adhered to, not that the ruling is changed arbitrarily. Ibn Hajar, commenting on the statement of Aisha radi Allahu anha, says: Neither did the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam see (i.e., witness it), nor did he prohibit it. That is, even Aisha could not speak of forbidding it—how could she? The matter was a religious ruling, the right of which belongs only to Allah and His Messenger.
