أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ أَبَاهُ كَتَبَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ الزُّهْرِيِّ يَأْمُرُهُ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ عَلَى سُبَيْعَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَيَسْأَلَهَا حَدِيثَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَمَّا قَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ اسْتَفْتَتْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَتَبَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ يُخْبِرُهُ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَ سَعْدِ بْنِ خَوْلَةَ وَهُوَ مِنْ بَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ لُؤَيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا 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 تُرِيدِينَ النِّكَاحَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنَّكِ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَنْتِ بِنَاكِحٍ حَتَّى تَمُرَّ عَلَيْكِ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ:‏‏‏‏ فَلَمَّا قَالَ لِي ذَلِكَ:‏‏‏‏ جَمَعْتُ عَلَيَّ ثِيَابِي حِينَ أَمْسَيْتُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَفْتَانِي:‏‏‏‏ بِأَنِّي قَدْ حَلَلْتُ حِينَ وَضَعْتُ حَمْلِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَمَرَنِي بِالتَّزْوِيجِ إِنْ بَدَا لِي .

His father wrote to 'Umar bin 'Abdullah bin Arqam Az-Zuhri, telling him to go to Subai'ah bint Al-Harith Al-Aslamiyyah رضی اللہ عنہما and ask her about her Hadith and what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had said to her when she consulted him. 'Umar bin 'Abdullah wrote back to 'Abdullah bin 'Utbah telling him that Subai'ah رضی اللہ عنہا told him, that she was married to Sahl bin Khawlah -who was from Banu 'Amir bin Lu-ayy and was one of those who had been present at Badr- and her husband died during the Farewell Pilgrimage while she was pregnant. She gave birth soon after he died, and when her Nifas ended she adorned herself to receive proposals of marriage. Abu As-Sanabil bin Ba'kak رضی اللہ عنہ -a man from Banu 'Abd Ad-Dar- went to her and said to her: 'Why do I see you adorned? Perhaps you want to get married, but by Allah you will not get married until four months and ten days have passed.' Subai'ah رضی اللہ عنہا said: 'When he said that to me, I put on my clothes in the evening and went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him about that. He ruled that it had become permissible for me to marry when I gave birth, and he told me to get married if I wanted to.'
