39. Marriage
٣٩۔ كِتَابُ النِّكَاحِ
[Machine] Narrated by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , "Allah forgives my ummah for the thoughts and whispers that they have not spoken or acted upon. This is in reference to the saying of Abu Awana, and according to the narration of Hisham, who said that the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Indeed, Allah, may He be glorified, forgives my ummah.'"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ تَجَاوَزَ اللهُ لِأُمَّتِي مَا حَدَّثَتْ بِهِ أَنْفُسَهَا مَا لَمْ تَكَلَّمْ بِهِ أَوْ تَعْمَلْ بِهِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ هِشَامٍ قَالَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ تَجَاوَزَ لِأُمَّتِي
[Machine] A man from the Quraysh divorced his wife, and then married her back. He passed by an elderly man and his son from the Bedouins in the market, who had come for trade. He asked the young man, "Do you have any goods?" Then he left him alone, but he came back to him and asked the same question again. He repeated this process multiple times. The young man replied, "Yes." The man then asked to see his hand and took him along with him. He informed him of the news and arranged for his marriage to the divorced woman. He spent the night with her, and in the morning, he sought permission to leave. When he left, he turned her back towards him. She swore by Allah that if he divorced her, she would never marry him again. That incident was mentioned to Umar, so he called him and said, "If you marry her, you should do this and that to him, and establish a mutual agreement." He then called her husband and ordered him to keep her and added more instructions in another place. He said, "And if anyone offers you anything, inform me about it."
طَلَّقَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ امْرَأَةً لَهُ فَبَتَّهَا فَمَرَّ بِشَيْخٍ وَابْنٍ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ فِي السُّوقِ قَدِمَا لِتِجَارَةٍ لَهُمَا فَقَالَ لِلْفَتَى هَلْ فِيكَ مِنْ خَيْرٍ؟ ثُمَّ مَضَى عَنْهُ ثُمَّ كَرَّ عَلَيْهِ فَكَمِثْلِهَا ثُمَّ مَضَى عَنْهُ ثُمَّ كَرَّ عَلَيْهِ فَكَمِثْلِهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَرِنِي يَدَكَ فَانْطَلَقَ بِهِ فَأَخْبَرَهُ الْخَبَرَ وَأَمَرَهُ بِنِكَاحِهَا فَنَكَحَهَا فَبَاتَ مَعَهَا فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ اسْتَأْذَنَ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ وَلَّاهَا الدُّبُرَ فَقَالَتْ وَاللهِ لَئِنْ طَلَّقَنِي لَا أَنْكِحُكَ أَبَدًا فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِعُمَرَ ؓ فَدَعَاهُ فَقَالَ لَوْ نَكَحْتَهَا لَفَعَلْتَ بِكَ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَتَوَاعَدَهُ وَدَعَا زَوْجَهَا فَقَالَ الزَمْهَا وَزَادَ فِيهِ فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ فَقَالَ وَقَالَ وَإِنْ عَرَضَ لَكَ أَحَدٌ بِشَيْءٍ فَأَخْبِرْنِي بِهِ
[Machine] A poor Bedouin man who had divorced his wife three times was sitting at the door of the mosque when a woman approached him and asked if he had a wife whom she could marry for just one night and then separate from in the morning. He agreed and the woman told him not to listen to anyone who tells him to leave her in the morning. She said she would take care of him and that he should go to 'Umar, the caliph. When morning came, they went to 'Umar and the woman said, "Speak to him, for you brought him here." The man refused and went to 'Umar himself. 'Umar told him to stay with his wife, and if people bothered him about it, to come to 'Umar and he would deal with them. Then 'Umar sent for the woman who had instigated the situation, and punished her. After that, the Bedouin man used to visit 'Umar in nice clothes in the morning, saying, "All praise is due to Allah who clothed you, O possessor of the two patches of cloth, with clothes in which you go out and come in." Al-Shafi'i said, "I have heard this hadith from numerous narrators connected directly to Ibn Sirin, with slight variation in wording."
أَنَّ امْرَأَةً طَلَّقَهَا زَوْجُهَا ثَلَاثًا وَكَانَ مِسْكِينٌ أَعْرَابِيٌّ يَقْعُدُ بِبَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَجَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَتْ هَلْ لَكَ فِي امْرَأَةٍ تَنْكِحُهَا فَتَبِيتُ مَعَهَا اللَّيْلَةَ وَتُصْبِحُ فَتُفَارِقُهَا؟ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ لَهُ امْرَأَتُهُ إِنَّكَ إِذَا أَصْبَحْتَ فَإِنَّهُمْ سَيَقُولُونَ لَكَ فَارِقْهَا فَلَا تَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ فَإِنِّي مُقِيمَةٌ لَكَ مَا تَرَى وَاذْهَبْ إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَتْ أَتَوْهُ وَأَتَوْهَا فَقَالَتْ كَلِّمُوهُ فَأَنْتُمْ جِئْتُمْ بِهِ فَكَلِّمُوهُ فَأَبَى فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ فَقَالَ الزَمِ امْرَأَتَكَ فَإِنْ رَابُوكَ بِرِيبَةٍ فَأْتِنِي وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى الْمَرْأَةِ الَّتِي مَشَتْ لِذَلِكَ فَنَكَّلَ بِهَا ثُمَّ كَانَ يَغْدُو عَلَى عُمَرَ وَيَرُوحُ فِي حُلَّةٍ فَيَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي كَسَاكَ يَا ذَا الرُّقْعَتَيْنِ حُلَّةً تَغْدُو فِيهَا وَتَرُوحُ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ ؓ وَسَمِعْتُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ مُسْنَدًا شَاذًّا مُتَّصِلًا عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ يُوصِلُهُ عَنْ عُمَرَ مِثْلَ هَذَا الْمَعْنَى
