'Uwaimir came to ʿAsim bin ʿAdi who was the chief of Bani Ajlan and said, "What do you say about a man who has found another man with his wife? Should he kill him whereupon you would kill him (i.e. the husband), or what should he do? Please ask Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this matter on my behalf." ʿAsim then went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! (And asked him that question) but Messenger of Allah ﷺ disliked the question," When 'Uwaimir asked ʿAsim (about the Prophet's answer) ʿAsim replied that Messenger of Allah ﷺ disliked such questions and considered it shameful. "Uwaimir then said, "By Allah, I will not give up asking unless I ask Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it." Uwaimir came (to the Prophet ) and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! A man has found another man with his wife! Should he kill him whereupon you would kill him (the husband, in Qisas) or what should he do?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah has revealed regarding you and your wife's case in the Qur'an "So Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered them to perform the measures of Mula'ana according to what Allah had mentioned in His Book. So 'Uwaimir did Mula'ana with her and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! If I kept her I would oppress her." So 'Uwaimir divorced her and so divorce became a tradition after them for those who happened to be involved in a case of Mula'ana. Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, "Look! If she (Uwaimir's wife) delivers a black child with deep black large eyes, big hips and fat legs, then I will be of the opinion that 'Uwaimir has spoken the truth; but if she delivers a red child looking like a Wahra then we will consider that 'Uwaimir has told a lie against her." Later on she delivered a child carrying the qualities which Messenger of Allah ﷺ had mentioned as a proof for 'Uwaimir's claim; therefore the child was ascribed to its mother henceforth.

'Uwaimir Al-ʿAjlani came to ʿAsim bin ʿAdi and said, "If a man found another man with his wife and killed him, would you sentence the husband to death (in Qisas,) i.e., equality in punishment)? O ʿAsim! Please ask Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this matter on my behalf." ʿAsim asked the Prophet ﷺ but the Prophet disliked the question and disapproved of it. ʿAsim returned and informed 'Uwaimir that the Prophet disliked that type of question. 'Uwaimir said, "By Allah, I will go (personally) to the Prophet." 'Uwaimir came to the Prophet ﷺ when Allah had already revealed Qur'anic Verses (in that respect), after ʿAsim had left (the Prophet ﷺ ). So the Prophet ﷺ said to 'Uwaimir, "Allah has revealed Qur'anic Verses regarding you and your wife." The Prophet ﷺ then called for them, and they came and carried out the order of Lian. Then 'Uwaimir said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Now if I kept her with me, I would be accused of telling a lie." So 'Uwaimir divorced her although the Prophet ﷺ did not order him to do so. Later on this practice of divorcing became the tradition of couples involved in a case of Li'an. The Prophet ﷺ said (to the people). "Wait for her! If she delivers a red short (small) child like a Wahra (a short red animal). then I will be of the opinion that he ('Uwaimir) has told a lie but if she delivered a black big-eyed one with big buttocks, then I will be of the opinion that he has told the truth about her." 'Ultimately she gave birth to a child that proved the accusation. (See Hadith No. 269, Vol. 6)

"Uwaimir came to 'Asim bin 'Adi and said: 'Ask the Messenger of Ailah ﷺ for me: "Do you think that if a man finds another man with his wife and kills him, he should be killed in retaliation, or what should he do?" 'Asim asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about that, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ disapproved of the question. Then 'Uwaimir met him ('Asim) and asked him about that, saying: 'What did you do?’ He said: I did that and you have not brought me any good. I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he disapproved of this question.’ Uwaimir said: 'By Allah, I will go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ myself and ask him.' So he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and found that Qur'an had been revealed concerning them, and the Prophet ﷺ told them to go through the procedure of Li'an. 'Uwaimir said: 'O Messenger of Allah, ﷺ by Allah if I take her back, I would have been telling lies about her.' So he left her before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told him to do so, and that became the Sunnah for two who engage in the procedure of Li'an. Then the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Wait and see. If she gives birth to a child who is black in color with widely-spaced dark eyes and large buttocks, then I think that he was telling the truth about her, but if she gives birth to a child with a red complexion like a Wahrah,[1] then I think that he was lying.' Then she gave birth to a child with features resembling those of the man concerning whom she was accused."

Sahl bin Sa’ad Al Sa’idi said that ‘Uwaimir bin Ashqar Al Ajilani came to ‘Asim bin Adl and said to him “Asim tell me about a man who finds a man along with his wife. Should he kill him and then be killed by you, or how should he act? Ask the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ ‘Asim, for me about it. ‘Asim then asked the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ about it. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ disliked the question and denounced it. What ‘Asim heard from the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ fell heavy on him. When ‘Asim returned to his family ‘Uwaimr came to him and asked ‘Asim “What did the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ say to you”? Asim replied “You did not do good to me”. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ disliked the question that I asked him. Thereupon ‘Uwaimir said “I swear by Allaah, I shall not leave until I ask him about it. So, ‘Uwaimir came to the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ while he was sitting in the midst of the people.” He said “Apostle of Allaah ﷺ tell me about a man who finds a man along with his wife. Should he kill him and then be killed by you, or how should he act?” The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ said “A revelation has been sent down about you and your wife so go away and bring her. Sahl said “So we cursed one another while I was along with the people who were with the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ. Then when they finished, ‘Umamir said “I shall have lied against her, Apostle of Allaah ﷺ if I keep her. He pronounced her divorce three times before the Apostle of Allaah ﷺcommanded him (to do so). Ibn Shihab said “Then this became the method of invoking curses.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2245)

[Machine] A man from the Ansar came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, what if a man finds his wife with another man and kills him, would you kill him or how would he act?" So Allah revealed in the Quran the ruling concerning this matter. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Allah has decreed regarding you and your wife." The man said, "We cursed each other in the mosque and I witnessed it. When we finished, I lied about it, O Messenger of Allah. If I had held her, I would have divorced her before the Prophet commanded it.” When they finished cursing each other, she left him in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ said, "That is the separation between every cursed couple." The Prophet ﷺ also said, "If she comes with Uhaymir, a short-statured person who appears as a free woman, then I do not see her except that she is telling the truth and he is lying about her. And if she comes with someone who has black eyes with two thick eyelashes, then I do not see him except that he is telling the truth about her." So she came with him against her wishes in accordance with that which is detested.  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا وَجَدَ مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلًا أَيَقْتُلُهُ فَتَقْتُلُونَهُ أَمْ كَيْفَ يَفْعَلُ؟ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ فِي شَأْنِهِ مَا ذُكِرَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ مِنْ أَمْرِ الْمُتَلَاعِنَيْنِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «قَدْ قَضَى اللهُ فِيكَ وَفِي امْرَأَتِكَ» قَالَ فَتَلَاعَنَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَأَنَا شَاهِدٌ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَا قَالَ كَذَبْتُ عَلَيْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ أَمْسَكْتُهَا فَطَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْمُرَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حِينَ فَرَغَا مِنَ التَّلَاعُنِ فَفَارَقَهَا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «ذَلِكَ التَّفْرِيقُ بَيْنَ كُلِّ مُتَلَاعِنَيْنِ» وَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «إِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ أُحَيْمِرَ قَصِيرًا كَأَنَّهُ وَحَرَةٌ فَلَا أُرَاهَا إِلَّا قَدْ صَدَقَتْ وَكَذَبَ عَلَيْهَا وَإِنْ جَاءَتْ بِهِ أَسْوَدَ أَعْيَنَ ذَا أَلْيَتَيْنِ فَلَا أُرَاهُ إِلَّا قَدْ صَدَقَ عَلَيْهَا» فَجَاءَتْ بِهِ عَلَى الْمَكْرُوهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ  

[Machine] How do you say about a man who finds another man with his wife, should he kill him and you kill him, or what should he do? He said, ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about that. So, As`im went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, a man finds another man with his wife, should he kill him and you kill him, or what should he do?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ disliked the question and disapproved of it. As`im said, "By Allah, I will not give up until I ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this." So, As`im went back and said, "O Messenger of Allah, a man finds another man with his wife, should he kill him and you kill him, or what should he do?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Qur’an has been revealed to you and to your wife." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded them to invoke the curse of Allah on each other according to what Allah had revealed in His Book, so they invoked the curse on each other. Then As`im said, "O Messenger of Allah, if I confine her, I will be wronging her." He said, "Then divorce her, for that will be a Sunnah (example) for those who come after them among the cursed ones." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Look, if she gives birth to a child who resembles `Asim, with thick calves, and gap between his teeth, I do not think that `Umayr is telling the truth, but if she gives birth to a child who resembles `Umayr, as if he was free, I do not think that `Asim is telling the truth." Then she bore a child who resembled the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the features that `Umayr had described, and it was said that he was the son of his mother.

'Uwaimir Al-ʿAjlani came to ʿAsim bin ʿAdi and said, "If a man found another man with his wife and killed him, would you sentence the husband to death (in Qisas,) i.e., equality in punishment)? O ʿAsim!

'Uwaimir said, "By Allah, I will go (personally) to the Prophet." 'Uwaimir came to the Prophet ﷺ when Allah had already revealed Qur'anic Verses (in that respect), after ʿAsim had left (the Prophet ﷺ ). So the Prophet ﷺ said to 'Uwaimir, "Allah has revealed Qur'anic Verses regarding you and your wife." The Prophet ﷺ then called for them, and they came and carried out the order of Lian. Then 'Uwaimir said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Now if I kept her with me, I would be accused of telling a lie." So 'Uwaimir divorced her although the Prophet ﷺ did not order him to do so. Later on this practice of divorcing became the tradition of couples involved in a case of Li'an. The Prophet ﷺ said (to the people). "Wait for her! If she delivers a red short (small) child like a Wahra (a short red animal). then I will be of the opinion that he ('Uwaimir) has told a lie but if she delivered a black big-eyed one with big buttocks, then I will be of the opinion that he has told the truth about her."

"Uwaimir came to 'Asim bin 'Adi and said: 'Ask the Messenger of Ailah ﷺ for me: "Do you think that if a man finds another man with his wife and kills him, he should be killed in retaliation, or what should he do?" 'Asim asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about that, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ disapproved of the question. Then 'Uwaimir met him ('Asim) and asked him about that, saying: 'What did you do?’ He said: I did that and you have not brought me any good. I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he disapproved of this question.’ Uwaimir said: 'By Allah, I will go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ myself and ask him.' So he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and found that Qur'an had been revealed concerning them, and the Prophet ﷺ told them to go through the procedure of Li'an. 'Uwaimir said: 'O Messenger of Allah, ﷺ by Allah if I take her back, I would have been telling lies about her.' So he left her before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told him to do so, and that became the Sunnah for two who engage in the procedure of Li'an. Then the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Wait and see. If she gives birth to a child who is black in color with widely-spaced dark eyes and large buttocks, then I think that he was telling the truth about her, but if she gives birth to a child with a red complexion like a Wahrah,[1] then I think that he was lying.' Then she gave birth to a child with features resembling those of the man concerning whom she was accused." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2066)

Sahl bin Sa’ad Al Sa’idi said that ‘Uwaimir bin Ashqar Al Ajilani came to ‘Asim bin Adl and said to him “Asim tell me about a man who finds a man along with his wife. Should he kill him and then be killed by you, or how should he act? Ask the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ ‘Asim, for me about it. ‘Asim then asked the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ about it. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ disliked the question and denounced it. What ‘Asim heard from the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ fell heavy on him. When ‘Asim returned to his family ‘Uwaimr came to him and asked ‘Asim “What did the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ say to you”? Asim replied “You did not do good to me”. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ disliked the question that I asked him. Thereupon ‘Uwaimir said “I swear by Allaah, I shall not leave until I ask him about it. So, ‘Uwaimir came to the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ while he was sitting in the midst of the people.” He said “Apostle of Allaah ﷺ tell me about a man who finds a man along with his wife. Should he kill him and then be killed by you, or how should he act?” The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ said “A revelation has been sent down about you and your wife so go away and bring her. Sahl said “So we cursed one another while I was along with the people who were with the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ. Then when they finished, ‘Umamir said “I shall have lied against her, Apostle of Allaah ﷺ if I keep her. He pronounced her divorce three times before the Apostle of Allaah ﷺcommanded him (to do so). Ibn Shihab said “Then this became the method of invoking curses.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2245)
