حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَعْمَرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حَنْظَلَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ خُوَيْلَةَ بِنْتِ مَالِكِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ ظَاهَرَ مِنِّي زَوْجِي أَوْسُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَشْكُو إِلَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُجَادِلُنِي فِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ اتَّقِي اللَّهَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّهُ ابْنُ عَمِّكِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَمَا بَرِحْتُ حَتَّى نَزَلَ الْقُرْآنُ:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ قَوْلَ الَّتِي تُجَادِلُكَ فِي زَوْجِهَا سورة المجادلة آية 1 إِلَى الْفَرْضِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يُعْتِقُ رَقَبَةً ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ لَا يَجِدُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَيَصُومُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنَّهُ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ مَا بِهِ مِنْ صِيَامٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَلْيُطْعِمْ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ مَا عِنْدَهُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَأُتِيَ سَاعَتَئِذٍ بِعَرَقٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنِّي أُعِينُهُ بِعَرَقٍ آخَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ أَحْسَنْتِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏اذْهَبِي فَأَطْعِمِي بِهَا عَنْهُ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا وَارْجِعِي إِلَى ابْنِ عَمِّكِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَالْعَرَقُ سِتُّونَ صَاعًا. قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد فِي هَذَا:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّهَا كَفَّرَتْ عَنْهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَسْتَأْمِرَهُ. قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَهَذَا أَخُو عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ.

My husband, Aws Ibn as-Samit, pronounced the words: You are like my mother. So I came to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم, complaining to him about my husband. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم disputed with me and said: Remain dutiful to Allah; he is your cousin. I continued (complaining) until the Quranic verse came down: Certainly has Allah heard the speech of the one who argues with you, [O Muhammad], concerning her husband. . . [58: 1] till the prescription of expiation. He then said: He should set free a slave. She said: He cannot afford it. He said: He should fast for two consecutive months. She said: Messenger of Allah, he is an old man; he cannot keep fasts. He said: He should feed sixty poor people. She said: He has nothing which he may give in alms. At that moment an araq (i. e. date-basket holding fifteen or sixteen sa's) was brought to him. I said: I shall help him with another date-basked ('araq). He said: You have done well. Go and feed sixty poor people on his behalf, and return to your cousin. The narrator said: An araq holds sixty sa's of dates. Abu Dawud said: She atoned on his behalf without seeking his permission. Abu Dawud said: This man (Aws bin al-Samit) is the brother of Ubadah bin al-Samit.
