The Prophet ﷺ said, "Solomon (the son of) David said, 'Tonight I will sleep with seventy ladies each of whom will conceive a child who will be a knight fighting for "Allah's Cause.' His companion said, 'If Allah will.' But Solomon did not say so; therefore none of those women got pregnant except one who gave birth to a half child." The Prophet ﷺ further said, "If the Prophet ﷺ Solomon had said it (i.e. 'If Allah will') he would have begotten children who would have fought in Allah's Cause." Shuaib and Ibn Abi Az-Zinad said, "Ninety (women) is more correct (than seventy).  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ امْرَأَةً تَحْمِلُ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ فَارِسًا يُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ وَلَمْ تَحْمِلْ شَيْئًا إِلاَّ وَاحِدًا سَاقِطًا إِحْدَى شِقَّيْهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَوْ قَالَهَا لَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ قَالَ شُعَيْبٌ وَابْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ تِسْعِينَ وَهْوَ أَصَحُّ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Once Solomon, son of David said, '(By Allah) Tonight I will have sexual intercourse with one hundred (or ninety-nine) women each of whom will give birth to a knight who will fight in Allah's Cause.' On that a (i.e. if Allah wills) but he did not say, 'Allah willing.' Therefore only one of those women conceived and gave birth to a half-man. By Him in Whose Hands Muhammad's life is, if he had said, "Allah willing', (he would have begotten sons) all of whom would have been knights striving in Allah's Cause."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلاَمُ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى مِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ أَوْ تِسْعٍ وَتِسْعِينَ كُلُّهُنَّ يَأْتِي بِفَارِسٍ يُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَحْمِلْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلاَّ امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ رَجُلٍ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فُرْسَانًا أَجْمَعُونَ  

(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  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "(The Prophet) Solomon once said, 'Tonight I will sleep with ninety women, each of whom will bring forth a (would-be) cavalier who will fight in Allah's Cause." On this, his companion said to him, "Say: Allah willing!" But he did not say Allah willing. Solomon then slept with all the women, but none of them became pregnant but one woman who later delivered a halfman. By Him in Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is, if he (Solomon) had said, 'Allah willing' (all his wives would have brought forth boys) and they would have fought in Allah's Cause as cavaliers. "  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى تِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً كُلُّهُنَّ تَأْتِي بِفَارِسٍ يُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَطَافَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جَمِيعًا فَلَمْ تَحْمِلْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلاَّ امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ رَجُلٍ وَايْمُ الَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فُرْسَانًا أَجْمَعُونَ  

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  

"Sulaiman bin Dawud said: 'Tonight I will go around ninety women, each of whom will bear a horseman who will perform Jihad in the cause of Allah.' His companion said to him: 'If Allah wills.' But he did not say: 'If Allah wills.' Then he went around to them all, but none of them got pregnant except a woman who bore half a man. By the One in Whose Hand is my soul! If he had said, 'If Allah wills,' they would all have performed Jihad in the cause of Allah as horsemen."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ لأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى تِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً كُلُّهُنَّ يَأْتِي بِفَارِسٍ يُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ﷻ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَطَافَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جَمِيعًا فَلَمْ تَحْمِلْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلاَّ امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ رَجُلٍ وَايْمُ الَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فُرْسَانًا أَجْمَعِينَ  

"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

" (Using translation from Bukhārī 6639)  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «وَقَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ» لَأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى تِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً كُلُّهُنَّ تَأْتِي بِفَارِسٍ يُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ قُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ فَطَافَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جَمِيعًا فَلَمْ تَحْمِلْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلَّا امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ رَجُلٍ وَأَيْمُ الَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فُرْسَانًا أَجْمَعُونَ  

[Machine] "He said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, Sulaiman ibn Dawud (peace be upon them) said, 'I will visit seventy women tonight, and each one will bring me a knight who fights in the cause of Allah.' His companion said to him, 'Say, 'If Allah wills,'' but he did not do so and did not say, 'If Allah wills.'' So he went around all of them, and none of them brought him anything except one woman who came with half of a man's body. And I swear by the soul of Muhammad in His hand, if he had said 'If Allah wills,' they would have all fought in the cause of Allah.'"  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ لَأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ امْرَأَةً كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ تَأْتِي بِفَارِسٍ يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ قُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ فَلَمْ يَفْعَلْ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ فَطَافَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جَمِيعًا فَلَمْ تَحْمِلْ مِنْهُنَّ إِلَّا امْرَأَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ رَجُلٍ وَايْمُ الَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَجَاهَدُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَجْمَعُونَ  

"قَال سُلَيمَانُ بن دَاود: لأطُوفن الليلَة عَلَى مائة امرأةٍ كلهن يَأتي بِفَارِس يُجَاهِدُ في سَبِيلِ اللهِ، فَقَال لَهُ صَاحِبه: قل: إِن شَاءَ الله"، فلَمْ يَقل: إن شاءَ الله, فطَاف عَلَيهِن فَلَمْ تَحْمِل منْهنَّ إلا امرَأةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ جَاءَت بِشِقِّ إِنْسَان, والذي نفس محمدٍ بيَدِه، لَوْ قَال: إِنْ شَاءَ الله -لَمْ يَحْنَثْ وَكَانَ دَرَكًا لِحَاجَتِه- لَجَاهَدوا في سَبِيلِ اللهِ فِرْسَانًا أَجْمَعُون".  

"إِنَّ سليمانَ بنَ دَاودَ كان لهُ أربعُ مائةِ امرأة، وَسِتُّمِائَةِ سَريَّةً، فقالَ يومًا: لأطوفَن الليلةَ على أَلف امرأة؛ فَتَحْمِلُ كُلُّ واحدة منهن بفارس يُجَاهِدُ في سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، وَلَمْ يَسْتَثْنِ، فَطَافَ عليهنًّ فَلم تَحْمِلْ واحدةٌ (مِنْهُنَّ إِلَّا امْرَأةٌ واحدةٌ جاءَت بشِقِّ إِنسانٍ، والذى نَفسِى بيده لو استثنى فقال: إِنَّ شاءَ اللَّه) لَوُلِدَ له ما قالَ: فُرْسانٌ، ولجاهدوا في سبيل اللَّه".
