Barira's husband was a slave called Mughith, as if I am seeing him now, going behind Barira and weeping with his tears flowing down his beard. The Prophet ﷺ said to ʿAbbas, "O ʿAbbas ! are you not astonished at the love of Mughith for Barira and the hatred of Barira for Mughith?" The Prophet ﷺ then said to Barira, "Why don't you return to him?" She said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Do you order me to do so?" He said, "No, I only intercede for him." She said, "I am not in need of him."  

يُقَالُ لَهُ مُغِيثٌ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ يَطُوفُ خَلْفَهَا يَبْكِي وَدُمُوعُهُ تَسِيلُ عَلَى لِحْيَتِهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِعَبَّاسٍ يَا عَبَّاسُ أَلاَ تَعْجَبُ مِنْ حُبِّ مُغِيثٍ بَرِيرَةَ وَمِنْ بُغْضِ بَرِيرَةَ مُغِيثًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَوْ رَاجَعْتِهِ قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ تَأْمُرُنِي قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا أَشْفَعُ قَالَتْ لاَ حَاجَةَ لِي فِيهِ  

The husband of Barirah was a slave called Mughith. It is as if I can see him walking behind her weeping, with the tears running down onto his beard. The Prophet [SAW] said to Al-'Abbas: "O 'Abbas, are you not amazed by the love of Mughith for Barirah and the hatred of Barirah for Mughith?" The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said to her: "Why don't you take him back, for he is the father of your child?" She said: "O Messenger of Allah, are you commanding me (to do so)?" He said: "I am just interceding." She said: "I have no need of him."  

يُقَالُ لَهُ مُغِيثٌ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ يَطُوفُ خَلْفَهَا يَبْكِي وَدُمُوعُهُ تَسِيلُ عَلَى لِحْيَتِهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِلْعَبَّاسِ يَا عَبَّاسُ أَلاَ تَعْجَبُ مِنْ حُبِّ مُغِيثٍ بَرِيرَةَ وَمِنْ بُغْضِ بَرِيرَةَ مُغِيثًا فَقَالَ لَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَوْ رَاجَعْتِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ أَبُو وَلَدِكِ قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتَأْمُرُنِي قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا شَفِيعٌ قَالَتْ فَلاَ حَاجَةَ لِي فِيهِ  

Ibn ‘Abbas said “Mughith was a slave.” He said “Apostle of Allaah ﷺ make intercession for me to her (Barirah)”. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ said “O Barirah fear Allaah. He is your husband and father of your child”. She said “Apostle of Allaah ﷺ do you command me for that? He said No, I am only interceding. Then tears were falling down on his (her husband’s) cheeks. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ said to ‘Abbas “Are you not surprised with the love of Mughith for Barirah and her hatred for him.”  

يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اشْفَعْ لِي إِلَيْهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَا بَرِيرَةُ اتَّقِي اللَّهَ فَإِنَّهُ زَوْجُكِ وَأَبُو وَلَدِكِ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتَأْمُرُنِي بِذَلِكَ قَالَ لاَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا شَافِعٌ فَكَانَ دُمُوعُهُ تَسِيلُ عَلَى خَدِّهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِلْعَبَّاسِ أَلاَ تَعْجَبُ مِنْ حُبِّ مُغِيثٍ بَرِيرَةَ وَبُغْضِهَا إِيَّاهُ

And the Prophet said to her: Why don’t you take him back, for he is the father of your child?' She said: 'O Messenger of Allah, are you commanding me (to do so)?' He said: 'No, rather I am interceding.' She said: 'I have no need of him.' "
