[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, there is a beautiful woman under my authority who does not refrain from immoral acts. He (the Prophet) said, 'Divorce her.' He (the person) said, 'I cannot bear to do that.' He (the Prophet) said, 'Then keep her.' Abu Abdur-Rahman said, 'This is incorrect, and the correct (answer) is that it is Mursal. Nadar bin Shumail has mixed up the narration. Others have narrated it from Hammad bin Salama, from Haroon bin Ri'ab, and Abdullah bin Ubaidullah. Abdul Karim Al-Mu'allim reported it from Ibn Abbas, and Abdul Karim is not reliable in his narration. Haroon bin Ri'ab is trustworthy, and the narration of Haroon is closer to the correct (answer). And Haroon is the one who sent it."
