(The Prophet) Solomon said, "Tonight I will sleep with (my) ninety wives, each of whom will get a male child who will fight for Allah's Cause." On that, his companion (Sufyan said that his companion was an angel) said to him, "Say, "If Allah will (Allah willing)." But Solomon forgot (to say it). He slept with all his wives, but none of the women gave birth to a child, except one who gave birth to a halfboy. Abu Huraira added: The Prophet ﷺ said, "If Solomon had said, "If Allah will" (Allah willing), he would not have been unsuccessful in his action, and would have attained what he had desired." Once Abu Huraira added: Allah apostle said, "If he had accepted."

سُلَيْمَانُ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى تِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً كُلٌّ تَلِدُ غُلاَمًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ يَعْنِي الْمَلَكَ قُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَنَسِيَ فَطَافَ بِهِنَّ فَلَمْ تَأْتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ بِوَلَدٍ إِلاَّ وَاحِدَةٌ بِشِقِّ غُلاَمٍ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَرْوِيهِ قَالَ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَمْ يَحْنَثْ وَكَانَ دَرَكًا فِي حَاجَتِهِ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوِ اسْتَثْنَى وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

Allah's Prophet Solomon who had sixty wives, once said, "Tonight I will have sexual relation (sleep) with all my wives so that each of them will become pregnant and bring forth (a boy who will grow into) a cavalier and will fight in Allah's Cause." So he slept with his wives and none of them (conceived and) delivered (a child) except one who brought a half (body) boy (deformed). Allah's Prophet said, "If Solomon had said; 'If Allah Will,' then each of those women would have delivered a (would-be) cavalier to fight in Allah's Cause." (See Hadith No. 74 A, Vol. 4).

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ كَانَ لَهُ سِتُّونَ امْرَأَةً فَقَالَ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى نِسَائِي فَلْتَحْمِلْنَ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ وَلْتَلِدْنَ فَارِسًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَطَافَ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ فَمَا وَلَدَتْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلاَّ امْرَأَةٌ وَلَدَتْ شِقَّ غُلاَمٍ قَالَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْ كَانَ سُلَيْمَانُ اسْتَثْنَى لَحَمَلَتْ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ فَوَلَدَتْ فَارِسًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ

Salaryman had sixty wives and he said: I will visit each one of them every night, and every one of them will become pregnant and give birth to a male child who will be a horseman and fight in the cause of Allah. But (it so happened) that none of them became pregnant except one, but she gave birth to an incomplete child. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Had he said Insha' Allah (if God so wills), then every one of them would have given birth to a child who would have been a horseman and fought in the cause of Allah

كَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ سِتُّونَ امْرَأَةً فَقَالَ لأَطُوفَنَّ عَلَيْهِنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ فَتَحْمِلُ كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ فَتَلِدُ كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلاَمًا فَارِسًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَلَمْ تَحْمِلْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلاَّ وَاحِدَةٌ فَوَلَدَتْ نِصْفَ إِنْسَانٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْ كَانَ اسْتَثْنَى لَوَلَدَتْ كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلاَمًا فَارِسًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ

I will have an intercourse with seventy wives during the night; all of them will give birth to a male child who will fight in the cause of Allah. His companion or the ang I said to him: Say," If God wills." But he (Hadrat Sulaimin) did not say so, and he forgot it. And none of his wives gave birth to a child, but one who gave birth to a premature child. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Had he said Insha' Allah (if God so will). he would not have failed and his desire would have been materialised.

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ امْرَأَةً كُلُّهُنَّ تَأْتِي بِغُلاَمٍ يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ أَوِ الْمَلَكُ قُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ وَنَسِيَ فَلَمْ تَأْتِ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْ نِسَائِهِ إِلاَّ وَاحِدَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ غُلاَمٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَلَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَمْ يَحْنَثْ وَكَانَ دَرَكًا لَهُ فِي حَاجَتِهِ

I will go round in the night to my ninety wives, and every one of them will give birth to a child (who will grow up) as a horseman and fight in the cause of Allah His companions said to him: Say" Insha' Allah." but he did not say Inshii' Allah. He went round all of them but none of them became pregnant but one, and she gave birth to a premature child. And by Him in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad, if he had said, Insha' Allah (his wives would have given birth to the children who would all have grown up into horsemen and fought in the way of Allah).

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى تِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً كُلُّهَا تَأْتِي بِفَارِسٍ يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ قُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَطَافَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جَمِيعًا فَلَمْ تَحْمِلْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلاَّ امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَجَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ رَجُلٍ وَايْمُ الَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فُرْسَانًا أَجْمَعُونَ

"Sulaiman said: 'I will certainly go around to ninety women tonight, each of whom will bear a child who will fight in the cause of Allah.' It was said to him: 'Say: If Allah wills' but he did not say it. He went around to them but none of them bore a child except for one woman who bore half a person." The Messenger of Allah said: "If he had said: 'If Allah wills,' he would not have broken his vow, and this would have been a means to help him to get what he wanted."

سُلَيْمَانُ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى تِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً تَلِدُ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلاَمًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ قُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ فَطَافَ بِهِنَّ فَلَمْ تَلِدْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلاَّ امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ نِصْفَ إِنْسَانٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَمْ يَحْنَثْ وَكَانَ دَرَكًا لِحَاجَتِهِ

"Sulaiman said: 'I will certainly go around to ninety women tonight, each of whom will bear a child who will fight in the cause of Allah.' It was said to him: 'Say: If Allah wills' but he did not say it. He went around to them but none of them bore a child except for one woman who bore half a person." The Messenger of Allah said: "If he had said: 'If Allah wills,' he would not have broken his vow, and this would have been a means to help him to get what he wanted." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3856)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ لَأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ بِمِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ تَلِدُ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلَامًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ قَالَ وَنَسِيَ أَنْ يَقُولَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ فَأَطَافَ بِهِنَّ قَالَ فَلَمْ تَلِدْ مِنْهُنَّ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَّا وَاحِدَةٌ نِصْفَ إِنْسَانٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَمْ يَحْنَثْ وَكَانَ دَرَكًا لِحَاجَتِهِ

[AI] Narrated by the Prophet (PBUH), Suleiman ibn Dawood said, "I will have relations with one hundred women tonight, and each woman will give birth to a boy who will fight with a sword in the cause of Allah." However, in that night, one woman only gave birth to a half human. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "If it were the will of Allah, each woman would have given birth to a boy who would fight with a sword in the cause of Allah."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ دَاوُدَ قَالَ أَطُوفُ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى مِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ فَتَلِدُ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلَامًا يَضْرِبُ بِالسَّيْفِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَلَمْ يَسْتَثْنِ قَالَ فَطَافَ فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ عَلَى مِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ فَلَمْ تَلِدْ مِنْهُنَّ غَيْرُ امْرَأَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَلَدَتْ نِصْفَإِنْسَانٍ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ أَنَّهُ كَانَ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَوَلَدَتْ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلَامًا يَضْرِبُ بِالسَّيْفِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ﷻ

[AI] "Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Sulaiman, son of Dawud, took an oath that he would spend the night with ninety women, each of whom would give birth to a boy who would fight in the cause of Allah.' His companion or the angel said to him, 'Say, "If Allah wills."' But he forgot and spent that night with ninety women, and none of them gave birth except one with the partial birth of a boy.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'If he had said "If Allah wills," he would not have violated his oath and he would have fulfilled his need.'"

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «حَلَفَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ لَيَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ بِتِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً تَلِدُ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلَامًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ أَوِ الْمَلِكُ قُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَنَسِيَ وَأَطَافَ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ بِتِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً فَمَا جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ إِلَّا وَاحِدَةٌ بِشِقِّ غُلَامٍ» فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَمْ يَحْنَثْ وَكَانَ أَدْرَكَ حَاجَتَهُ»

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ سليمان قال لأطوفن الليلة على مئة امرأة تلد كل امرأة غلاما يقاتل في سبيل اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لو قال إن شاء الله لولدت كل امراة منهن غلاما يقاتل في سبيل الله عز وجل ولم يولد له إلا من امرأة واحدة ولدت نصف غلام أو بعض غلام

فقال لأطوفن الليلة على مئة امرأة تلد كل امرأة غلاما يقاتل في سبيل الله عز وجل قال فطاف عليهن فلم تحمل منهن امرأة إلا امرأة واحدة يقولون نصف إنسان فقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أما إنه لو استثنى لحملت كل امرأة منهن غلاما يقاتل فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عز وجل وَهَذَا الحديثُ قَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ من غير وجه

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أن سليمان عليه السلام قال أطوف الليلة على مئة امرأة فتلد كل امرأة منهن غلاما يضرب بالسيف في سبيل الله عز وجل فطاف على مئة امرأة لم تلد منهن إلا امرأة واحدة ولدت نصف إنسان فقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لو كان استثنى لولدت كل امرأة منهن غلاما يضرب بالسيف في سبيل الله عز وجل
