حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، وَعَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ صَالِح، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ قَيْسٍ، أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَ أَبِي عَمْرِو بْنِ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، فَطَلَّقَهَا آخِرَ ثَلَاثِ تَطْلِيقَاتٍ، فَزَعَمَتْ أَنَّهَا جَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَسْتَفْتِيهِ فِي خُرُوجِهَا مِنْ بَيْتِهَا، «فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَنْتَقِلَ إِلَى ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ الْأَعْمَى»، «فَأَبَى مَرْوَانُ أَنْ يُصَدِّقَهُ فِي خُرُوجِ الْمُطَلَّقَةِ مِنْ بَيْتِهَا»، وقَالَ عُرْوَةُ: إِنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَنْكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ.

She had been married to Abu 'Amr bin Hafs bin al-Mughira رضی اللہ عنہ and he divorced her with three pronouncements. She stated that she went to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) asking him about abandoning that house. He commanded her to move to the house of Ibn Umm Maktum رضی اللہ عنہ , the blind. Marwan refused to testify the divorced woman abandoning her house (before the 'Idda was over). 'Urwa said that 'A'isha رضی اللہ عنہا objected to (the words of) Fatima bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہا .

— Fatima bint Qais ( رضی اللہ عنہا) reported

وحَدَّثَنِيهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حُجَيْنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ، مَعَ قَوْلِ عُرْوَةَ: إِنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَنْكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ.

A similar report (as no. 3703) was narrated from Shihab with this chai, as well of the comment of Urwah about 'Aishah's رضی اللہ عنہا objection to Fatimah bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہا .

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَعَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِعَبْدٍ، قَالَا: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَا عَمْرِو بْنَ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، خَرَجَ مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى امْرَأَتِهِ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ بِتَطْلِيقَةٍ كَانَتْ بَقِيَتْ مِنْ طَلَاقِهَا، وَأَمَرَ لَهَا الْحَارِثَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ، وَعَيَّاشَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ بِنَفَقَةٍ، فَقَالَا لَهَا: وَاللهِ مَا لَكِ نَفَقَةٌ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونِي حَامِلًا، فَأَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَذَكَرَتْ لَهُ قَوْلَهُمَا، فَقَالَ: «لَا نَفَقَةَ لَكِ»، فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْهُ فِي الِانْتِقَالِ، فَأَذِنَ لَهَا، فَقَالَتْ: أَيْنَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ: «إِلَى ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ» وَكَانَ أَعْمَى، تَضَعُ ثِيَابَهَا عِنْدَهُ وَلَا يَرَاهَا، فَلَمَّا مَضَتْ عِدَّتُهَا أَنْكَحَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا مَرْوَانُ، قَبِيصَةَ بْنَ ذُؤَيْبٍ يَسْأَلُهَا عَنِ الْحَدِيثِ، فَحَدَّثَتْهُ بِهِ، فَقَالَ مَرْوَانُ: لَمْ نَسْمَعْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِلَّا مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ، سَنَأْخُذُ بِالْعِصْمَةِ الَّتِي وَجَدْنَا النَّاسَ عَلَيْهَا، فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ، حِينَ بَلَغَهَا قَوْلُ مَرْوَانَ: فَبَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمُ الْقُرْآنُ، قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {لَا تُخْرِجُوهُنَّ مِنْ بُيُوتِهِنَّ} [الطلاق: 1] الْآيَةَ، قَالَتْ: هَذَا لِمَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ مُرَاجَعَةٌ، فَأَيُّ أَمْرٍ يَحْدُثُ بَعْدَ الثَّلَاثِ؟ فَكَيْفَ تَقُولُونَ: لَا نَفَقَةَ لَهَا إِذَا لَمْ تَكُنْ حَامِلًا؟ فَعَلَامَ تَحْبِسُونَهَا.

'Amr bin Hafs bin al-Mughira رضی اللہ عنہ set out along with 'Ali bin Abi Talib ( رضی اللہ عنہ) to the Yemen and sent to his wife the one pronouncement of divorce which was still left from the (irrevocable) divorce; and he commanded al-Harith bin Hisham and 'Ayyash bin Abu Rabi'a to give her maintenance allowance. They said to her: By Allah, there is no maintenance allowance for you, except in case you are pregnant. She came to Allah's Apostle (may peace he upon him) and mentioned their opinion to him, whereupon he said: There is no maintenance allowance for you. Then she sought permission to move (to another place), and he (the Holy Prophet) permitted her. She said: Allah's Messenger, where (should I go)? He said: To the house of Ibn Umm Maktum and, as he is blind, she could put off her garmeqts in his presence and he would not see her. And when her 'Idda was over. Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) married her to Usama bin Zaid رضی اللہ عنہ . Marwan (the governor of Medina) sent Qabisa bin Dhuwaib in order to ask her about this hadith, and she narrated it to him, whereupon Marwan said: We have not heard this hadith but from a woman. We would adopt a safe (path) where we found the people. Fatima رضی اللہ عنہا said that when these words of, Marwan were conveyed to her. There is between me and you the word of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic: Do not turn them out of their houses. She asserted: This is in regard to the revocable divorce what new (turn can the event take) after three pronouncements (separation between irrevocable). Why do you say there is no maintenance allowance for her if she is not pregnant? Then on what ground do you restrain her?

— Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah bin 'Utba reported

حَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا سَيَّارٌ، وَحُصَيْنٌ، وَمُغِيرَةُ، وَأَشْعَثُ، وَمُجَالِدٌ، وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، وَدَاوُدُ، كُلُّهُمْ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ فَسَأَلْتُهَا عَنْ قَضَاءِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهَا، فَقَالَتْ: طَلَّقَهَا زَوْجُهَا الْبَتَّةَ، فَقَالَتْ: فَخَاصَمْتُهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي السُّكْنَى وَالنَّفَقَةِ، قَالَتْ: «فَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ لِي سُكْنَى، وَلَا نَفَقَةً، وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَعْتَدَّ فِي بَيْتِ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ».

I visited Fatima bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہ and asked her about the verdict of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) about (board and lodging during the 'Idda) and she said that her husband divorced her with an irrevocable divorce. She (further. said): I contended with him before Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) about lodging and maintenance allowance, and she said: He did not provide me with any lodging or maintenance allowance, and he commanded me to spend the 'Idda in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum رضی اللہ عنہ .

— Sha'bi reported

وحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، وَدَاوُدَ، وَمُغِيرَةَ، وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ، وَأَشْعَثَ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ زُهَيْرٍ، عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ.

It was narrated from Ash-Shabi that he said: I entered upon Fatimah bint Qais..." a hadith like that of Zubair from Hushaim.

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْهُجَيْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سَيَّارٌ أَبُو الْحَكَمِ، حَدَّثَنَا الشَّعْبِيُّ، قَالَ: دَخَلْنَا عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، فَأَتْحَفَتْنَا بِرُطَبِ ابْنِ طَابٍ، وَسَقَتْنَا سَوِيقَ سُلْتٍ، فَسَأَلْتُهَا عَنِ الْمُطَلَّقَةِ ثَلَاثًا، أَيْنَ تَعْتَدُّ؟ قَالَتْ: «طَلَّقَنِي بَعْلِي ثَلَاثًا، فَأَذِنَ لِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَعْتَدَّ فِي أَهْلِي.

We visited Fatima bint Qais رضی اللہ عنہا and she served us fresh dates and a drink of barley flour, and I asked her: Where should a woman who has been divorced by three pronouncements, spend the period of her 'Idda. She said: My husband divorced me with three pronouncements, and Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) permitted me to spend my 'Idda period with my family (with my parents).

— Sha'bi reported

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمُطَلَّقَةِ ثَلَاثًا، قَالَ: «لَيْسَ لَهَا سُكْنَى، وَلَا نَفَقَةٌ.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) that there is no lodging and maintenance allowance for a woman who has been given irrevocable divorce.

— It was narrated from Ash-Shabi from Fatima bint Qais (رضی اللہ عنہا) reported

وحَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ رُزَيْقٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَتْ: طَلَّقَنِي زَوْجِي ثَلَاثًا، فَأَرَدْتُ النُّقْلَةَ، فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «انْتَقِلِي إِلَى بَيْتِ ابْنِ عَمِّكِ عَمْرِو بْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، فَاعْتَدِّي عِنْدَهُ».

My husband divorced me with three pronouncements. I decided to move (from his house to another place). So I came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), and he said: Move to the house of your cousin 'Amr bin Umm Maktum and spend your period of 'Idda there.

— Fatima bint Qais (رضی اللہ عنہا) reported

وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَبَلَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ رُزَيْقٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَعَ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ جَالِسًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَعْظَمِ، وَمَعَنَا الشَّعْبِيُّ، فَحَدَّثَ الشَّعْبِيُّ بِحَدِيثِ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، لَمْ يَجْعَلْ لَهَا سُكْنَى وَلَا نَفَقَةً»، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الْأَسْوَدُ كَفًّا مِنْ حَصًى، فَحَصَبَهُ بِهِ، فَقَالَ: وَيْلَكَ تُحَدِّثُ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا، قَالَ عُمَرُ: لَا نَتْرُكُ كِتَابَ اللهِ وَسُنَّةَ نَبِيِّنَا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِقَوْلِ امْرَأَةٍ، لَا نَدْرِي لَعَلَّهَا حَفِظَتْ، أَوْ نَسِيَتْ، لَهَا السُّكْنَى وَالنَّفَقَةُ، قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {لَا تُخْرِجُوهُنَّ مِنْ بُيُوتِهِنَّ وَلَا يَخْرُجْنَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْتِينَ بِفَاحِشَةٍ مُبَيِّنَةٍ.

I was with al-Aswad bin Yazid sitting in the great mosque, and there was with us al-Sha'bi, and he narrated the narration of Fatima bint Qais (رضی اللہ عنہا ) that Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) did not make any provision for lodging and maintenance allowance for her. Al-Aswad caught hold of some pebbles in his fist and he threw them towards him saying: Woe be to thee, you narrate like it, whereas Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: We cannot abandon the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of our Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) for the words of a woman. We do not know whether she remembers that or she forgets. For her, there is a provision of lodging and maintenance allowance. Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, said: Turn them not from their houses nor should they themselves go forth unless they commit an open indecency (lxv. 1).

— Abu Ishaq reported

وحَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ الضَّبِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ، نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ أَبِي أَحْمَدَ، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ رُزَيْقٍ بِقِصَّتِهِ.

A hadith like this has been narrated on the authority of Ishaq with the same chain of transmitters.

) وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ بْنِ صُخَيْرٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ قَيْسٍ، تَقُولُ: إِنَّ زَوْجَهَا طَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا، فَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُكْنَى، وَلَا نَفَقَةً، قَالَتْ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا حَلَلْتِ فَآذِنِينِي»، فَآذَنْتُهُ، فَخَطَبَهَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، وَأَبُو جَهْمٍ، وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَمَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ فَرَجُلٌ تَرِبٌ، لَا مَالَ لَهُ، وَأَمَّا أَبُو جَهْمٍ فَرَجُلٌ ضَرَّابٌ لِلنِّسَاءِ، وَلَكِنْ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ» فَقَالَتْ بِيَدِهَا هَكَذَا: أُسَامَةُ، أُسَامَةُ، فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «طَاعَةُ اللهِ، وَطَاعَةُ رَسُولِهِ خَيْرٌ لَكِ»، قَالَتْ: فَتَزَوَّجْتُهُ، فَاغْتَبَطْتُ.

Her husband divorced her with three, pronouncements and Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) made no provision for her lodging and maintenance allowance. She (further said): Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said to me: When your period of 'Idda is over, inform me. So I informed him. (By that time) Mu'awiya, Abu Jahm and Usama bin Zaid رضی اللہ عنہم had given her the proposal of marriage. Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: So far as Mu'awiya is concerned, he is a poor man without any property. So far as Abu Jahm is concerned, he is a great beater of women, but Usama bin Zaid... She pointed with her hand (that she did not approve of the idea of marrying) Usama. But Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Obedience to Allah and obedience to His Messenger is better for thee. She said: So I married him, and I became an object of envy.

وحَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ قَيْسٍ، تَقُولُ: أَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ زَوْجِي أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَيَّاشَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ بِطَلَاقِي، وَأَرْسَلَ مَعَهُ بِخَمْسَةِ آصُعِ تَمْرٍ، وَخَمْسَةِ آصُعِ شَعِيرٍ، فَقُلْتُ: أَمَا لِي نَفَقَةٌ إِلَّا هَذَا؟ وَلَا أَعْتَدُّ فِي مَنْزِلِكُمْ؟ قَالَ: لَا، قَالَتْ: فَشَدَدْتُ عَلَيَّ ثِيَابِي، وَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. فَقَالَ: «كَمْ طَلَّقَكِ؟» قُلْتُ: ثَلَاثًا، قَالَ: «صَدَقَ، لَيْسَ لَكِ نَفَقَةٌ، اعْتَدِّي فِي بَيْتِ ابْنِ عَمِّكِ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، فَإِنَّهُ ضَرِيرُ الْبَصَرِ، تُلْقِي ثَوْبَكِ عِنْدَهُ، فَإِذَا انْقَضَتْ عِدَّتُكِ فَآذِنِينِي» قَالَتْ: فَخَطَبَنِي خُطَّابٌ مِنْهُمْ مُعَاوِيَةُ، وَأَبُو الْجَهْمِ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ تَرِبٌ، خَفِيفُ الْحَالِ، وَأَبُو الْجَهْمِ مِنْهُ شِدَّةٌ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ - أَوْ يَضْرِبُ النِّسَاءَ، أَوْ نَحْوَ هَذَا -، وَلَكِنْ عَلَيْكِ بِأُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ.

My husband Abu 'Amr bin Hafs bin al-Mughira رضی اللہ عنہ sent 'Ayyish bin Abu Rabi'a to me with a divorce, and he also sent through him five si's of dates and five si's of barley. I said: Is there no maintenance allowance for me but only this, and I cannot even spend my 'Idda period in your house? He said: No. She said: I dressed myself and came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌). He said: How many pronouncements of divorce have been made for you? I said: Three. He said what he ('Ayyish b. Abu Rabi'a) had stated was true. There is no maintenance allowance for you. Spend 'Idda period in the house of your cousin, Ibn Umm Maktum. He is blind and you can put off your garment in his presence. And when you have spent your Idda period, you inform me. She said: Mu'awiya and Abu'l-Jahm (Allah be pleased with them) were among those who had given me the proposal of marriage. Thereupon Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: Mu'awiya is destitute and in poor condition and Abu'l-Jahm is very harsh with women (or he beats women, or like that), you should take Usama bin Zaid (as your husband).

— Fatima bint Qais (رضی اللہ عنہا) reported

وحَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، فَسَأَلْنَاهَا، فَقَالَتْ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَمْرِو بْنِ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، فَخَرَجَ فِي غَزْوَةِ نَجْرَانَ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ مَهْدِيٍّ، وَزَادَ قَالَتْ: فَتَزَوَّجْتُهُ، فَشَرَّفَنِي اللهُ بِابْنِ زَيْدٍ، وَكَرَّمَنِي اللهُ بِابْنِ زَيْد.

I and Abu Salama bin 'Abdul-Rahman came to fatima bint Qais ( رضی اللہ عنہا) and asked her (about divorce, etc.). She said: I was the wife of Abu 'Amr bin Hafs bin al-Mughira رضی اللہ عنہ , and he set out to join the battle of Najran. The rest of the hadith is the same, but he made this addition: She said: I married him and Allah hornoured me on account of Ibn Zaid and Allah favoured me because of him.

— Abu Bakr bin Abu'l-Jahm reported

وحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ، عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ زَمَنَ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، فَحَدَّثَتْنَا أَنَّ زَوْجَهَا طَلَّقَهَا طَلَاقًا بَاتًّا، بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ سُفْيَانَ.

I and Abu Salama came to Fatima bint Qais (رضی اللہ عنہا ) during the time of Ibn Zubair (Allah be pleased with him) and she narrated to us that her husband gave her an irrevocable divorce. (The rest of the hadith is the same.)

— Abu Bakr reported

وحَدَّثَنِي حَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ صَالِح، عَنِ السُّدِّيِّ، عَنِ الْبَهِيِّ، عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَتْ: «طَلَّقَنِي زَوْجِي ثَلَاثًا، فَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُكْنَى، وَلَا نَفَقَةً.

My husband divorced me with three pronouncements and Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) made no provision for lodging and maintenance allowance.

— Fatima bint Qais ( رضی اللہ عنہا ) reported

وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، قَالَ: تَزَوَّجَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ، بِنْتَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، فَطَلَّقَهَا، فَأَخْرَجَهَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ، فَعَابَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ عُرْوَةُ، فَقَالُوا: إِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ قَدْ خَرَجَتْ، قَالَ عُرْوَةُ: فَأَتَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهَا بِذَلِكَ، فَقَالَتْ: «مَا لِفَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ خَيْرٌ فِي أَنْ تَذْكُرَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ.

Yahya bin Sa'id bin al-'As married the daughter of 'Abdul-Rahman bin al-Hakam, and he divorced her and he turned her out from his house. 'Urwa (Allah be -pleased with him) criticised this (action) of theirs (the members of the family of her in-laws). They said: Verily, Fatima too went out (of her in-laws' house). 'Urwa said: I came to 'A'isha (رضی اللہ عنہا) and told her about it and she said: There is no good for Fatima bint Qais ( رضی اللہ عنہا) in making mention of it.

— Hisham reported on the authority of his father

وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، زَوْجِي طَلَّقَنِي ثَلَاثًا، وَأَخَافُ أَنْ يُقْتَحَمَ عَلَيَّ، قَالَ: «فَأَمَرَهَا، فَتَحَوَّلَتْ.

Allah's Messenger, my husband has divorcee me with three pronouncements and I am afraid that I may be put to hardship, and so he commanded her and so she moved (to another house).

— Fatima bint Qais (رضی اللہ عنہا ) reported that she said

وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: «مَا لِفَاطِمَةَ خَيْرٌ أَنْ تَذْكُرَ هَذَا» قَالَ: تَعْنِي قَوْلَهَا: لَا سُكْنَى وَلَا نَفَقَةَ.

It is no good for Fatima to make mention of it, i.e. her statement: There is no lodging and maintenance allowance (for the divorced women).

— A'isha ( رضی اللہ عنہا) said

) وحَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ لِعَائِشَةَ: أَلَمْ تَرَيْ إِلَى فُلَانَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَكَمِ طَلَّقَهَا زَوْجُهَا الْبَتَّةَ، فَخَرَجَتْ، فَقَالَتْ: «بِئْسَمَا صَنَعَتْ»، فَقَالَ: أَلَمْ تَسْمَعِي إِلَى قَوْلِ فَاطِمَةَ، فَقَالَتْ: «أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَا خَيْرَ لَهَا فِي ذِكْرِ ذَلِكَ.

Didn't you see that such and such daughter of al-Hakam was divorced by her husband with an irrevocable divorce, and she left (the house of her husband)? Thereupon 'A'isha (رضی اللہ عنہا) said: It was bad that she did. He (Urwa) said: Have you not heard the words of Fatima? Thereupon she said: There if no good for her in making mention of it.

— Ibn al-Qasim narrated on the authority of his father that 'Urwa bin Zubair (رضی اللہ عنہا) said to 'A'isha (رضی اللہ عنہا)

وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ: طُلِّقَتْ خَالَتِي، فَأَرَادَتْ أَنْ تَجُدَّ نَخْلَهَا، فَزَجَرَهَا رَجُلٌ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ، فَأَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «بَلَى فَجُدِّي نَخْلَكِ، فَإِنَّكِ عَسَى أَنْ تَصَدَّقِي، أَوْ تَفْعَلِي مَعْرُوفًا.

My maternal aunt was divorced, and she intended to pluck her dates. A person scolded her for having come out (during the period of 'Idda). She came to Allah's Prophet (ﷺ) and he said: Certainly you can pluck (dates) from your palm trees, for perhaps you may give charity or do an act of kindness.

— Jabir bin 'Abdullah (رضی اللہ عنہ) reported

وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، وَحَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَتَقَارَبَا فِي اللَّفْظِ، قَالَ حَرْمَلَةُ: حَدَّثَنَا، وقَالَ أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، حَدَّثَنِي يُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ كَتَبَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْأَرْقَمِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، يَأْمُرُهُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ عَلَى سُبَيْعَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةِ، فَيَسْأَلَهَا عَنْ حَدِيثِهَا، وَعَمَّا قَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ اسْتَفْتَتْهُ، فَكَتَبَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ يُخْبِرُهُ، أَنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ: أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَ سَعْدِ بْنِ خَوْلَةَ وَهُوَ فِي بَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ لُؤَيٍّ، وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا، فَتُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ، فَلَمْ تَنْشَبْ أَنْ وَضَعَتْ حَمْلَهَا بَعْدَ وَفَاتِهِ، فَلَمَّا تَعَلَّتْ مِنْ نِفَاسِهَا، تَجَمَّلَتْ لِلْخُطَّابِ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَبُو السَّنَابِلِ بْنُ بَعْكَكٍ - رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ الدَّارِ - فَقَالَ لَهَا: مَا لِي أَرَاكِ مُتَجَمِّلَةً؟ لَعَلَّكِ تَرْجِينَ النِّكَاحَ، إِنَّكِ، وَاللهِ، مَا أَنْتِ بِنَاكِحٍ حَتَّى تَمُرَّ عَلَيْكِ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرٌ، قَالَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ: فَلَمَّا قَالَ لِي ذَلِكَ، جَمَعْتُ عَلَيَّ ثِيَابِي حِينَ أَمْسَيْتُ، فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، «فَأَفْتَانِي بِأَنِّي قَدْ حَلَلْتُ حِينَ وَضَعْتُ حَمْلِي، وَأَمَرَنِي بِالتَّزَوُّجِ إِنْ بَدَا لِي»، قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ: «فَلَا أَرَى بَأْسًا أَنْ تَتَزَوَّجَ حِينَ وَضَعَتْ، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ فِي دَمِهَا، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَقْرَبُهَا زَوْجُهَا حَتَّى تَطْهُرَ.

He would go to Subai'ah bint al-Hirith al-Aslamiyya ( رضی اللہ عنہا) and ask her about a verdict from him which Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) gave her when she had asked that from him (in regard to the termination of 'Idda at the birth of a child) 'Umar bin Abdullah wrote to 'Abdullah bin 'Utba informing him that Subai'ah رضی اللہ عنہا had told him that she had been married to Sa'd bin Khaula and he belonged to the tribe of Amir bin Lu'ayy, and was one of those who participated in the Battle of Badr, and he died in the Farewell Pilgrimage and she had been in the family way at that time. And much time had not elapsed that she gave birth to a child after his death and when she was free from the effects of childbirth she embellished herself for those who had to give proposals of marriage. Abdul-Sunabil bin Ba'kak (from Banu 'Abdul-Dar) came to her and said: What is this that I see you embellished; perhaps you are inclined to marry, By Allah, you cannot marry unless four months and ten days (of 'Idda are passed). When he said that. I dressed myself, and as it was evening I came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) and asked him about it, and he gave me a religious verdict that I was allowed to marry when I had given birth to a child and asked me to marry if I so liked. Ibn Shihab said: I do not find any harm fur her in marrying when she has given birth to a child even when she is bleeding (after the birth of the child) except that her husband should not go near her until she is purified.

— Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah bin 'Utba (bin Mas'ud) reported that his father wrote to Umar bin 'Abdullah bin al Arqam al-Zuhri

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى الْعَنَزِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ سَعِيدٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، اجْتَمَعَا عِنْدَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَهُمَا يَذْكُرَانِ الْمَرْأَةَ تُنْفَسُ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: عِدَّتُهَا آخِرُ الْأَجَلَيْنِ، وَقَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ: قَدْ حَلَّتْ، فَجَعَلَا يَتَنَازَعَانِ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَا مَعَ ابْنِ أَخِي - يَعْنِي أَبَا سَلَمَةَ - فَبَعَثُوا كُرَيْبًا مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، يَسْأَلُهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَجَاءَهُمْ فَأَخْبَرَهُمْ، أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ: «إِنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةَ نُفِسَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ، وَإِنَّهَا ذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَتَزَوَّجَ.

Abu Salama bin 'Abdul-Rahman and Ibn 'Abbas (رضی اللہ عنہ) got together in the house of Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ عنہ) and began to discuss about the woman who gave birth to a child a few nights after the death of her husband. Ibn 'Abbas (رضی اللہ عنہ) said: Her 'Idda is that period which is longer of the two (between four months and ten days and the birth of the child, whichever is longer). Abu Salama, however said: Her period of 'Idda is over (with the birth of the child), and they were contending with each other over this issue, whereupon Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ عنہ) said: I subscribe (to the view) held by my nephew (i.e. Abu Salama رضی اللہ عنہا ). They sent Kuraib (the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbas) to Umm Salama to ask her about it. He came (back) to them and informed them that Umm Salama (رضی اللہ عنہا) said that Subai'ah al-Aslamiyya رضی اللہ عنہا gave birth to a child after the death of her husband when the few flights (had hardly) passed and she made mention of that to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and he commanded her to marry.

— Sulaiman bin Yasar narrated

وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْح، أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، كِلَاهُمَا عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ. غَيْرَ أَنَّ اللَّيْثَ قَالَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ: فَأَرْسَلُوا إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، وَلَمْ يُسَمِّ كُرَيْبًا.

They sent him to Umm Salama رضی اللہ عنہا , but no mention was made of Kuraib.

— It was narrated from Yahya bin Saeed with this chain (a hadith similar to no. 3723), except that Al-Laith in his Hadith

وحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ، هَذِهِ الْأَحَادِيثَ الثَّلَاثَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَتْ زَيْنَبُ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، حِينَ تُوُفِّيَ أَبُوهَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ، فَدَعَتْ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ بِطِيبٍ فِيهِ صُفْرَةٌ خَلُوقٌ - أَوْ غَيْرُهُ - فَدَهَنَتْ مِنْهُ جَارِيَةً، ثُمَّ مَسَّتْ بِعَارِضَيْهَا، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: وَاللهِ مَا لِي بِالطِّيبِ مِنْ حَاجَةٍ، غَيْرَ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ: «لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ تُحِدُّ عَلَى مَيِّتٍ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ، إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا».

I went to Umm Habiba رضی اللہ عنہا , the wife of Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), when her father Abu Sufyan رضی اللہ عنہ had died. Umm Habiba رضی اللہ عنہا sent for a perfume having yellowness in it or something else like it, and she applied it to a girl and then rubbed it on her cheeks and then said: By Allah, I need no perfume but for the fact that I heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) say on the pulpit: It is not permissible for a woman believing in Allah and the Hereafter to mourn for the dead beyond three days, but (in case of the death) of the husband it is permissible for four months and ten days.

— Zainab (bint Abu Salama) (رضی اللہ عنہا) reported

قَالَتْ زَيْنَبُ: ثُمَّ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ حِينَ تُوُفِّيَ أَخُوهَا، فَدَعَتْ بِطِيبٍ، فَمَسَّتْ مِنْهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: وَاللهِ مَا لِي بِالطِّيبِ مِنْ حَاجَةٍ، غَيْرَ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ: «لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ، تُحِدُّ عَلَى مَيِّتٍ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ، إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا.

"Then I entered upon Zainab bint Jahsh رضی اللہ عنہا when her brother died. She called for some perfume and put on some of it, then she said: 'By Allah, I have no need of perfume, but I heard the Messenger of Allah saying on the Minbar. "It is not permissible for a women who believes in Allah and the last Day to mourn for more than free days for anyone who dies, except for a husband; four month and ten days."

— Zainab said
