“My maternal uncle passed by me - (one of the narrators) Hushaim named him in his narration as Harith bin Amr - and the Prophet ﷺ had given him a banner to carry. I said to him: 'Where are you going?’ He said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has sent me to a man who married his father's wife after he died, and has commanded me to strike his neck (i.e. execute him).”  

مَرَّ بِي خَالِي سَمَّاهُ هُشَيْمٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو وَقَدْ عَقَدَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِوَاءً فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ فَقَالَ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةَ أَبِيهِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَضْرِبَ عُنُقَهُ  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to a man who had married his father's wife after he died, to strike his neck (execute him) and confiscate his wealth.”  

بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةَ أَبِيهِ أَنْ أَضْرِبَ عُنُقَهُ وَأُصَفِّيَ مَالَهُ
