I am Sawwar bin Abdullah bin Sawwar, we are Khaled bin Al-Harith, we are Abdul-Malik bin Abi Suleiman, Saeed bin Jubayr told me, he said: I came Ibn Omar, so I said: O Abu Abdul Rahman, should the two cursed people be separated? He said: Glory be to God. The first person to ask about that was so-and-so, and he said: O Messenger of God, a man sees his wife committing indecency, so if he speaks He spoke about a great matter, and if he remained silent, he remained silent about a great matter? The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, remained silent about him. He came to him after that and said: O Messenger of God, you have been afflicted with the matter I asked you about. ? He said: “For God said: And those who accuse their wives and have no witnesses except themselves, the testimony of one of them is four testimonies.” By God, until he recited all the verses.” Then the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, reminded him and told him that the torment of this world is lesser than the torment of the Hereafter. He said: By the One who sent you with the truth, it is for the truth. Then he called the woman, and God reminded her and told her that the torment of this world is easier than The torment of the Hereafter, and she said: By the One who sent you with the truth, this was not the case. He said to the man: “Testify: Four testimonies of God. Indeed, he is one of The truthful {6} And the fifth is that the curse of God is upon him if he is of the liars {7} “Then the woman bore four testimonies that God For among the liars, and fifthly, that God’s wrath be upon her if he were of the truthful ones, then He separated between them.” (Peace Be Upon Him)

میں سوار بن عبداللہ بن سوار ہوں، ہم خالد بن الحارث ہیں، ہم عبدالملک بن ابی سلیمان ہیں، مجھ سے سعید بن جبیر نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا: میں ابن عمر رضی اللہ عنہ کے پاس آیا، تو میں نے کہا: اے ابو عبدالرحمٰن کیا دونوں ملعونوں کو الگ کر دیا جائے؟ اس نے کہا: اللہ پاک ہے۔ سب سے پہلے جس نے اس کے بارے میں پوچھا وہ فلاں تھا، اس نے عرض کیا: یا رسول اللہ، ایک آدمی اپنی بیوی کو بے حیائی کرتے ہوئے دیکھتا ہے، تو اگر وہ بولے تو اس نے بڑی بات کہی، اور اگر خاموش رہا آپ بڑی بات پر خاموش رہا؟ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم اس کے بارے میں خاموش رہے۔ اس کے بعد وہ آپ کے پاس آیا اور کہنے لگا: یا رسول اللہ، آپ کو اس چیز میں مبتلا کیا گیا ہے جس کے بارے میں میں نے آپ سے پوچھا تھا۔ ? اس نے کہا: کیونکہ اللہ تعالیٰ نے فرمایا: اور جو لوگ اپنی بیویوں پر تہمت لگائیں اور ان کے پاس اپنے سوا کوئی گواہ نہ ہو، ان میں سے ایک کی گواہی چار گواہی ہے۔ خدا کی قسم یہاں تک کہ اس نے آپام آیات پڑھ لیں۔ پھر رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے انہیں یاد دلایا اور بتایا کہ دنیا کا عذاب آخرت کے عذاب سے کم ہے۔ فرمایا: اس ذات کی قسم جس نے آپ کو حق کے ساتھ بھیجا ہے، یہ حق کے لیے ہے۔ پھر اس نے عورت کو بلایا تو خدا نے اسے یاد دلایا اور بتایا کہ دنیا کا عذاب آخرت کے عذاب سے آسان ہے اور اس نے کہا: اس ذات کی قسم جس نے آپ کو حق کے ساتھ بھیجا ہے، ایسا نہیں تھا۔ اس نے اس آدمی سے کہا: \گواہی دو: خدا کی چار گواہیاں۔ بے شک وہ سچوں میں سے ہے {6} اور پانچواں یہ کہ اس پر خدا کی لعنت ہو اگر وہ جھوٹوں میں سے ہے {7} \"پھر اس عورت نے چار گواہی دی کہ خدا کے لئے جھوٹوں میں سے اور پانچویں یہ کہ اس پر خدا کا غضب ہو اگر وہ سچوں میں سے ہو تو اس نے ان دونوں کے درمیان جدائی ڈال دی۔\""""

I am Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Aʿlā, narrated to us Muḥammad ibn Thawr, from Maʿmar, from Muḥammad ibn Muslim ibn Shihāb al-Zuhrī, who said: ʿUrwah ibn al-Zubayr, Saʿīd ibn al-Musayyib, ʿAlqama ibn Waqqāṣ, and ʿUbayd Allāh ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿUtbah informed me of the ḥadīth of ʿĀʾishah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, when the people of the Slander said what they said about her, and Allāh declared her innocent. Each of them narrated to me a portion of her ḥadīth, and some of them were more retentive of her ḥadīth than others and more accurate in its transmission. I retained from each one of them the ḥadīth which he narrated to me, and some of their narrations corroborate others. They asserted that ʿĀʾishah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, when he intended to travel, would draw lots among his wives, and whichever of them had her lot drawn would accompany him. ʿĀʾishah said: He drew lots among us during a military expedition he undertook, and my lot was drawn, so I went out with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ after the Ḥijāb had been revealed. I was carried in my howdah and I would be set down in it. We journeyed until the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had finished that expedition and turned back, and we drew near to al-Madīnah. He announced the departure one night, so I walked until I had gone beyond the army. When I had attended to my need, I returned to my camel saddle, and I touched my chest and found that my necklace of ʿaẓfār beads had broken. I went back to search for my necklace, and my search delayed me. Meanwhile, the group who were in charge of preparing my mount came and placed the howdah on my camel upon which I used to ride, thinking that I was inside it. At that time, women were light; they had not become heavy with flesh, for they ate only small portions of food. So the people did not notice the weight of the howdah when they lifted it and set it in place, as I was a young girl of tender age. They set the camel in motion and departed. I found my necklace after the army had moved on. I came to their campsites, but there was no one to call out or respond. I made my way to the place where I had been, thinking that the people would miss me and come back for me. While I was sitting in my place, sleep overcame me and I slept until morning. Ṣafwān ibn al-Muʿaṭṭal was behind the army. He set out at night and arrived at my campsite in the morning. He saw the dark form of a sleeping person and came to me. When he saw me, he recognized me, for he had seen me before the Ḥijāb was enjoined upon us. I awoke at his utterance of 'Inna lillāhi wa inna ilayhi rājiʿūn' when he recognized me. I covered my face with my jilbāb. By Allāh, he did not speak a single word to me, nor did I hear from him any word other than his utterance of 'Inna lillāhi wa inna ilayhi rājiʿūn,' when he made his camel kneel. He pressed down on its foreleg, and I mounted it. He set out, leading the camel with me on it, until we reached the army after they had dismounted in the heat of midday. Those who perished perished concerning me, and the one who took the leading role in it was ʿAbd Allāh ibn Ubayy ibn Salūl. I arrived in al-Madīnah and fell ill for a month, while the people were immersed in the talk of the people of the Slander, and I was unaware of any of that. What troubled me in my illness was that I no longer recognized from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ the kindness I used to see when I was ill. He would only come in, offer salām, and say: 'How is that one of yours (kayfa tīkum)?' That was what troubled me, though I sensed no evil. After I had recovered, I went out with Umm Misṭaḥ towards al-Manāṣiʿ, which was our open area for relieving ourselves. We used to go out only at night, before latrines had been built near our houses. Our practice was that of the early Arabs in going out to the open ground for relief, for we disliked building latrines near our houses. I set out with Umm Misṭaḥ—she was the daughter of Abū Ruhm ibn ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib ibn ʿAbd Manāf, and her mother was the daughter of Ṣakhr ibn ʿĀmir, the maternal aunt of Abū Bakr al-Ṣiddīq, and her son was Misṭaḥ ibn Uthātha ibn ʿAbbād ibn al-Muṭṭalib. I and the daughter of Abū Ruhm were heading towards my house when we had finished our business, and Umm Misḥaḥ stumbled on her garment and said: 'May Misṭaḥ be ruined!' I said to her: 'What a terrible thing you have said! Do you revile a man who witnessed Badr?' She said: 'O you! Have you not heard what he said?' I said: 'What did he say?' She informed me of the words of the people of the Slander, and my illness increased upon my illness. When I returned to my house, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ came in and said: 'How is that one of yours?' I said: 'Will you permit me to go to my parents?' He said: 'Yes.' I wanted at that time to verify the news from them. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ gave me permission, so I came to my parents and said to my mother: 'O my dear mother, what are the people saying?' She said: 'O my daughter, take it lightly. By Allāh, rarely has a beautiful woman who has co-wives been free from their speaking against her.' I said: 'Subḥān Allāh! Have the people really spoken of this, and has it reached the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?' She said: 'Yes.' I wept that night until morning, and my tears did not cease and I found no sleep, until my parents feared that weeping would split my liver. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ summoned ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib and Usāmah ibn Zayd when the revelation was delayed, seeking their counsel regarding separation from his family. As for Usāmah, he advised the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ according to what he knew of the innocence of his family and the love he felt in his heart, saying: 'O Messenger of Allāh, your family, and we know nothing but good of them.' As for ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib, he said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, Allāh has not constrained you regarding women, and there are many others besides her. Ask the slave girl; she will tell you the truth'—meaning Barīrah. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ summoned Barīrah and said: 'Have you seen anything concerning ʿĀʾishah that raises your suspicion?' Barīrah said: 'By the One who sent you with the truth, I have not seen anything about her that I would fault her for, other than that she is a young girl of tender age who falls asleep while her family's dough is being prepared, and the domestic animal comes and eats it.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stood up to deliver a sermon. He praised Allāh and extolled Him as He deserves, then said: 'To proceed: who will excuse me regarding a man whose harm to my family has reached me?'—meaning ʿAbd Allāh ibn Ubayy ibn Salūl. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said, while he was also upon the minbar: 'O company of Muslims, who will excuse me regarding a man whose harm to my family has reached me?'—meaning ʿAbd Allāh ibn Ubayy ibn Salūl. 'By Allāh, I have not known anything but good concerning my family, and no one used to visit my family except in my presence.' Saʿīd ibn Muʿādh al-Anṣārī stood up and said: 'I will excuse you from him, O Messenger of Allāh. If he is from the Aws, we will strike his neck, and if he is from our brothers of the Khazraj, command us and we will carry out your command.' Saʿīd ibn ʿUbādah, who was the chief of the Khazraj—and he was a righteous man, but tribal fervor overcame him—said: 'O Saʿīd ibn Muʿādh, by the life of Allāh, you shall not kill him, nor will you be able to kill him.' Usayd ibn Ḥuḍayr, who was the paternal cousin of Saʿīd ibn Muʿādh, stood up and said to Saʿīd ibn ʿUbādah: 'You have lied! By the life of Allāh, we shall surely kill him, for you are a hypocrite, arguing on behalf of the hypocrites.' The two tribes—the Aws and the Khazraj—rose up until they were on the verge of fighting, while the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was standing on the minbar. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ continued to calm them until they fell silent. Then the Prophet ﷺ came to me while I was in my parents' house. While he was sitting and I was weeping, a woman from the Anṣār sought permission to enter upon me…' And he continued the ḥadīth.

وَالَّذِي يَعْلَمُ فِي نَفْسِهِ مِنَ الْوُدِّ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَهْلُكَ وَلا نَعْلَمُ إِلا خَيْرًا ، وَأَمَّا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ , فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لَمْ يُضَيِّقِ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ النِّسَاءَ ، وَالنِّسَاءُ سِوَاهَا كَثِيرٌ ، وَإِنْ تَسْأَلِ الْجَارِيَةَ تَصْدُقْكَ ، يَعْنِي بَرِيرَةَ ، فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَرِيرَةَ , فَقَالَ : " هَلْ رَأَيْتِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ يُرِيبُكِ مِنْ عَائِشَةَ ؟ " ، قَالَتْ بَرِيرَةُ : وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ ، إِنْ رَأَيْتُ عَلَيْهَا أَمْرًا أَغْمِصُهُ عَلَيْهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَنَّهَا حَدِيثَةُ السِّنِّ ، تَنَامُ عَنْ عَجِينِ أَهْلِهَا , فَتَأْتِي الدَّاجِنُ فَتَأْكُلُهُ ، فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَطِيبًا ، فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ بِمَا هُوَ أَهْلُهُ , ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَمَّا بَعْدُ ، فَمَنْ يُعْذِرُنِي مِمَّنْ قَدْ بَلَغَنِي أَذَاهُ فِي أَهْلِي ؟ " ، يَعْنِي عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي بْنِ سَلُولٍ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَيْضًا : " يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، مِنْ يُعْذِرُنِي مِمَّنْ قَدْ بَلَغَنِي أَذَاهُ فِي أَهْلِي ؟ يَعْنِي عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي بْنِ سَلُولٍ ، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا عَلِمْتُ عَلَى أَهْلِي إِلا خَيْرًا ، وَمَا كَانَ يَدْخُلُ عَلَى أَهْلِي إِلا مَعِي " ، فَقَامَ سَعْدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ ، فَقَالَ : أُعْذِرُكَ مِنْهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الأَوْسِ ضَرَبْنَا عُنُقَهُ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مِنْ إِخْوَانِنَا مِنَ الْخَزْرَجِ أَمَرْتَنَا فَفَعَلْنَا أَمْرَكَ ، فَقَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ ، وَهُوَ سَيِّدُ الْخَزْرَجِ ، وَكَانَ رَجُلا صَالِحا وَلَكِنِ احْتَمَلَتْهُ الْحَمِيَّةُ , فَقَالَ : أَيْ سَعْدُ بْنَ مُعَاذٍ ، لَعَمْرُ اللَّهِ لا تَقْتُلُهُ ، وَلا تَقْدِرُ عَلَى قَتْلِهِ ، فَقَامَ أُسَيْدُ بْنُ حُضَيْرٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ , فَقَالَ لِسَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ : كَذَبْتَ ، لَعَمْرُ اللَّهِ لَنَقْتُلَنَّهُ ، فَإِنَّكَ مُنَافِقٌ تُجَادِلُ عَنِ الْمُنَافِقِينَ ، فَثَارَ الْحَيَّانِ : الأَوْسُ ، وَالْخَزْرَجُ ، حَتَّى هَمُّوا أَنْ يَقْتَتِلُوا ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ، فَلَمْ يَزَلْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُخَفِّضُهُمْ حَتَّى سَكَتُوا ، ثُمَّ أَتَانِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا فِي بَيْتِ أَبَوَيَّ ، فَبَيْنَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ وَأَنَا أَبْكِي ، فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْ عَلَيَّ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ . . . ، وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ
