١٤۔٥٢ باب مَا جَاءَ فِي كَرَاهِيَةِ الْفَرْقِ بَيْنَ الأَخَوَيْنِ أَوْ بَيْنَ الْوَالِدَةِ وَوَلَدِهَا فِي الْبَيْعِ

tirmidhi:1283ʿUmar b. Ḥafṣ al-Shaybānī > ʿAbdullāh b. Wahb > Ḥuya b. ʿAbdullāh > Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥman al-Ḥubulī > Abū Ayyūb

"I narrated heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: 'Whoever seperates a mother from her child, Allah seperates him and his most beloved on the Day of Judgement.'"  

[Abu 'Eisa said:] This Hadith is Hasan Gharib.
الترمذي:١٢٨٣حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حُيَىُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحُبُلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الْوَالِدَةِ وَوَلَدِهَا فَرَّقَ اللَّهُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ أَحِبَّتِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ
tirmidhi:1284al-Ḥasan b. Qazaʿah > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Mahdī > Ḥammād b. Salamah > al-Ḥajjāj > al-Ḥakam > Maymūn b. Abū Shabīb > ʿAlī

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave me two boys who were brothers, so I sold one of them, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: 'O, 'Ali! What happened to your boy?' So I informed him, and he said: 'Return him, return him.'"  

[Abu 'Eisa said:] This Hadith is Hasan Gharib. Some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and others, disliked separating between the captives when selling them. Some of the people of knowledge permitted separating the children that were born in the land of Islam, but the first view is more correct. It has been related that Ibrahim An-Nakha'i seperated a mother and her child in a sale, so he was asked about that. He said: "I sought her permission for that and she approved."
الترمذي:١٢٨٤حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ قَزَعَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مَيْمُونِ بْنِ أَبِي شَبِيبٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ

وَهَبَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ غُلاَمَيْنِ أَخَوَيْنِ فَبِعْتُ أَحَدَهُمَا فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَا عَلِيُّ مَا فَعَلَ غُلاَمُكَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ رُدَّهُ رُدَّهُ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَقَدْ كَرِهَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَغَيْرِهِمُ التَّفْرِيقَ بَيْنَ السَّبْىِ فِي الْبَيْعِ وَيُكْرَهُ أَنْ يُفَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الْوَالِدَةِ وَوَلَدِهَا وَبَيْنَ الْوَالِدِ وَالْوَلَدِ وَبَيْنَ الإِخْوَةِ وَالأَخَوَاتِ فِي الْبَيْعِ وَرَخَّصَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ فِي التَّفْرِيقِ بَيْنَ الْمُوَلَّدَاتِ الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا فِي أَرْضِ الإِسْلاَمِ وَالْقَوْلُ الأَوَّلُ أَصَحُّ وَرُوِيَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ أَنَّهُ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ وَالِدَةٍ وَوَلَدِهَا فِي الْبَيْعِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي قَدِ اسْتَأْذَنْتُهَا بِذَلِكَ فَرَضِيَتْ
