حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ الْمَعْنَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ ابْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ابْنِ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ:‏‏‏‏ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ صَخْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ ابْنُ الْعَلَاءِ الْبَيَاضِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كُنْتُ امْرَأً أُصِيبُ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ مَا لَا يُصِيبُ غَيْرِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ خِفْتُ أَنْ أُصِيبَ مِنَ امْرَأَتِي شَيْئًا يُتَابَعُ بِي حَتَّى أُصْبِحَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَظَاهَرْتُ مِنْهَا حَتَّى يَنْسَلِخَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَبَيْنَمَا هِيَ تَخْدُمُنِي ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ إِذْ تَكَشَّفَ لِي مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ أَنْ نَزَوْتُ عَلَيْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ خَرَجْتُ إِلَى قَوْمِي فَأَخْبَرْتُهُمُ الْخَبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ امْشُوا مَعِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَا وَاللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْتَ بِذَاكَ يَا سَلَمَةُ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَا بِذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏مَرَّتَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَنَا صَابِرٌ لِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاحْكُمْ فِيَّ مَا أَرَاكَ اللَّهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَرِّرْ رَقَبَةً ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا أَمْلِكُ رَقَبَةً غَيْرَهَا وَضَرَبْتُ صَفْحَةَ رَقَبَتِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَصُمْ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَهَلْ أَصَبْتُ الَّذِي أَصَبْتُ إِلَّا مِنَ الصِّيَامِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَأَطْعِمْ وَسْقًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ بَيْنَ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَقَدْ بِتْنَا وَحْشَيْنِ مَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَانْطَلِقْ إِلَى صَاحِبِ صَدَقَةِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ فَلْيَدْفَعْهَا إِلَيْكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَطْعِمْ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا وَسْقًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكُلْ أَنْتَ وَعِيَالُكَ بَقِيَّتَهَا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى قَوْمِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ وَجَدْتُ عِنْدَكُمُ الضِّيقَ وَسُوءَ الرَّأْيِ وَوَجَدْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ السَّعَةَ وَحُسْنَ الرَّأْيِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَدْ أَمَرَنِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَوْ أَمَرَ لِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏بِصَدَقَتِكُمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَادَ ابْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ:‏‏‏‏ بَيَاضَةُ بَطْنٌ مِنْ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ.

I was a man who was more given than others to sexual intercourse with women. When the month of Ramadan came, I feared lest I should have intercourse with my wife, and this evil should remain with me till the morning. So I made my wife like my mother's back to me till the end of Ramadan. But one night when she was waiting upon me, something of her was revealed. Suddenly I jumped upon her. When the morning came I went to my people and informed them about this matter. I said: Go along with me to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. They said: No, by Allah. So I went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him of the matter. He said: Have you really committed it, Salamah? I said: I committed it twice, Messenger of Allah. I am content with the Commandment of Allah, the Exalted; so take a decision about me according to what Allah has shown you. He said: Free a slave. I said: By Him Who sent you with truth, I do not possess a neck other than this: and I struck the surface of my neck. He said: Then fast two consecutive months. I said: Whatever I suffered is due to fasting. He said: Feed sixty poor people with a wasq of dates. I said: By Him Who sent you with truth, we passed the night hungry; there was no food in our house. He said: Then go to the collector of sadaqah of Banu Zurayq; he must give it to you. Then feed sixty poor people with a wasq of dates; and you and your family eat the remaining dates. Then I came back to my people, and said (to them): I found with you poverty and bad opinion; and I found with the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم prosperity and good opinion. He has commanded me to give alms to you. Ibn al-Ala added: Ibn Idris said: Bayadah is a sub-clan of Banu Zurayq.
