11. Book of Marriage
١١۔ كِتَابُ النِّكَاحِ
[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never struck a servant and he never struck anything with his hand except when he was fighting in the cause of Allah, the Almighty and Glorious."
«مَا ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَادِمًا قَطُّ وَلَا ضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ﷻ»
Do not beat Allah's handmaidens, but when Umar came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Women have become emboldened towards their husbands, he (the Prophet) gave permission to beat them. Then many women came round the family of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ complaining against their husbands. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Many women have gone round Muhammad's family complaining against their husbands. They are not the best among you. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2146)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَضْرِبُوا إِمَاءَ اللَّهِ» فَجَاءَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ قَدْ ذَئِرْنَ عَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِنَّ فَرَخَّصَ لَهُمْ فِي ضَرْبِهِنَّ فَأَطَافَ بِآلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ نِسَاءٌ كَثِيرٌ يَشْكُونَ أَزْوَاجَهُنَّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَقَدْ طَافَ بِآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ نِسَاءٌ كَثِيرٌ يَشْكُونَ أَزْوَاجَهُنَّ لَيْسَ أُولَئِكَ بِخِيَارِكُمْ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delivered a sermon to the people one day, and he advised them about women. He said, "What is the matter with a man who beats his wife like the beating of a slave, and then he lies with her on the last day?"
خَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ يَوْمًا وَوَعَظَهُمْ فِي النِّسَاءِ فَقَالَ «مَا بَالُ الرَّجُلِ يَجْلِدُ امْرَأَتَهُ جَلْدَ الْعَبْدِ وَلَعَلَّهُ يُضَاجِعُهَا فِي آخِرِ يَوْمِهِ؟ »
