أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ سَهْلَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيَّ أَخْبَرَهُ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ عُوَيْمِرًا الْعَجْلَانِيَّ جَاءَ إِلَى عَاصِمِ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَرَأَيْتَ يَا عَاصِمُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا وَجَدَ مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَيَقْتُلُهُ فَيَقْتُلُونَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَمْ كَيْفَ يَفْعَلُ ؟ سَلْ لِي يَا عَاصِمُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَأَلَ عَاصِمٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ فَكَرِهَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَسَائِلَ وَعَابَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَتَّى كَبُرَ عَلَى عَاصِمٍ مَا سَمِعَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ عَاصِمٌ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏جَاءَهُ عُوَيْمِرٌ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا عَاصِمُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏مَاذَا قَالَ لَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ عَاصِمٌ لِعُوَيْمِرٍ:‏‏‏‏ لَمْ تَأْتِنِي بِخَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَدْ كَرِهَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَسْأَلَةَ الَّتِي سَأَلْتَ عَنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ عُوَيْمِرٌ:‏‏‏‏ وَاللَّهِ لَا أَنْتَهِي حَتَّى أَسْأَلَ عَنْهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَقْبَلَ عُوَيْمِرٌ حَتَّى أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَسْطَ النَّاسِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا وَجَدَ مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلًا أَيَقْتُلُهُ فَتَقْتُلُونَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَمْ كَيْفَ يَفْعَلُ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ نَزَلَ فِيكَ وَفِي صَاحِبَتِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاذْهَبْ فَأْتِ بِهَا ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ سَهْلٌ:‏‏‏‏ فَتَلَاعَنَا وَأَنَا مَعَ النَّاسِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ عُوَيْمِرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَذَبْتُ عَلَيْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنْ أَمْسَكْتُهَا فَطَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْمُرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .

'Uwaimir Al-'Ajlani رضی اللہ عنہ came to 'Asim bin 'Adiy رضی اللہ عنہ and said: What do you think, O 'Asim! If a man finds another man with his wife, should he kill him, and be killed in retaliation, or what should he do? O 'Asim! Ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about that for me. So 'Asim رضی اللہ عنہ asked the Messenger of Allah about that, and the Messenger of Allah disapproved of the question, and criticized the asking of too many questions until 'Asim رضی اللہ عنہ felt upset. When 'Asim رضی اللہ عنہ went back to his people, 'Uwaimir came to him and said: O 'Asim, what did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say to you? 'Asim رضی اللہ عنہ said: You have not brought me any good. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ disapproved of the question you asked. 'Uwaimir رضی اللہ عنہ said: By Allah, I will go and ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. So he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and found him in the midst of the people. He said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you think if a man finds another man with his wife -should he kill him, and be killed in retaliation or what should he do? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Something has been revealed concerning you and your wife, so go and bring her here. Sahl رضی اللہ عنہ said: So they engaged in the procedure of Li'an, and I was among the people in the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When 'Uwaimir رضی اللہ عنہ finished he said: I would have been telling lies about her, O Messenger of Allah, if I keep her. So he divorced her thrice before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told him to do so.
