أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ
سُئِلَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «آخِرُ الْأَجَلَيْنِ» وَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ «إِذَا وَلَدَتْ فَقَدْ حَلَّتْ» فَدَخَلَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ عَلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ وَلَدَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةُ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِنِصْفِ شَهْرٍ فَخَطَبَهَا رَجُلَانِ أَحَدُهُمَا شَابٌّ وَالْآخَرُ كَهْلٌ فَحَطَّتْ إِلَى الشَّابِّ فَقَالَ الْكَهْلُ لَمْ تَحْلُلْ وَكَانَ أَهْلُهَا غَيْبًا وَرَجَا إِذَا جَاءَ أَهْلُهَا أَنْ يُؤْثِرُوهُ بِهَا فَجَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «قَدْ حَلَلْتِ فَانْكِحِي مَنْ شِئْتِ»

✧ Abd Allah b. Abbas and Abu Hurayrah were asked about a woman whose husband died while she was pregnant. Ibn Abbas said, 'The later of the two terms,' and Abu Hurayrah said, 'When she gives birth, she has become lawful.' Then Abu Salamah entered upon Umm Salamah and asked her about that. She said: Subay'ah al-Aslamiyyah gave birth half a month after her husband's death. Two men proposed to her, one a young man and the other an older man, and she inclined to the young man. The older man said, 'You have not become lawful.' Her family was absent, and he hoped that when her family came, they would prefer him to her. She came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said, 'You have become lawful, so marry whomever you wish.'
