ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الْعِدَّةِ لِلْحَامِلِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا
[Machine] About a woman who gave birth forty nights after the death of her husband, Ibn Abbas said, "It is the last of the two terms." Abu Salama said, "Did not Allah say, 'And the mothers may give suckling to their children for two whole years?'". Abu Hurayrah said, "I am with the son of my brother," meaning Abu Salama. So Ibn Abbas sent Kurayb to the wives of the Prophet ﷺ to ask them, "Have you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ regarding this as a Sunnah?" So they sent to him that Suhayla bint Aslamia gave birth forty nights after the death of her husband, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married her.
عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ وَضَعَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «آخِرَ الْأَجَلَيْنِ» قَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ فَقُلْتُ أَمَا قَالَ اللَّهُ {وَأُولَاتُ الْأَحْمَالِ أَجَلُهُنَّ أَنْ يَضَعْنَ حَمْلَهُنَّ} قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ «أَنَا مَعَ ابْنِ أَخِي» يَعْنِي أَبَا سَلَمَةَ فَأَرْسَلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ كُرَيْبًا إِلَى أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَسْأَلَهُنَّ هَلْ سَمِعْتُنَّ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ سُنَّةً؟ فَأَرْسَلْنَ إِلَيْهِ «أَنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةَ وَضَعَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً فَزَوَّجَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ»
