أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ زُرَيْعٍ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قِيلَ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي امْرَأَةٍ وَضَعَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِعِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً:‏‏‏‏ أَيَصْلُحُ لَهَا أَنْ تَزَوَّجَ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِلَّا آخِرَ الْأَجَلَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى:‏‏‏‏ وَأُولاتُ الأَحْمَالِ أَجَلُهُنَّ أَنْ يَضَعْنَ حَمْلَهُنَّ سورة الطلاق آية 4، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ فِي الطَّلَاقِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَا مَعَ ابْنِ أَخِي يَعْنِي أَبَا سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَ غُلَامَهُ كُرَيْبًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ ائْتِ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ فَسَلْهَا:‏‏‏‏ هَلْ كَانَ هَذَا سُنَّةٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ فَجَاءَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ نَعَمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏سُبَيْعَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةُ وَضَعَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِعِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْ تَزَوَّجَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَانَ أَبُو السَّنَابِلِ فِيمَنْ يَخْطُبُهَا .

It was said to Ibn 'Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما concerning a woman who gives birth one day after her husband died: 'Can she get married?' He said: 'No, not until the longer of the two periods has ended.' He said: 'Allah says: And for those who are pregnant (whether they are divorced or their husbands are dead), their 'Iddah (prescribed period) is until they lay down their burden.' He said: 'That only applies in the case of divorce.' Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ said: 'I agree with my brother's son' --meaning, Abu Salamah. He sent his slave Kuraib and told him: 'Go to Umm Salamah رضی اللہ عنہا and ask her: Was this the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' He came back and said: 'Yes, Subai'ah Al-Aslamiyyah رضی اللہ عنہا gave birth twenty days after her husband died, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told her to get married, and Abu As-Sanabil رضی اللہ عنہ was one of those who proposed marriage to her.'
