Muwatta' Malik 28-16

Translation

Yahya related to me from Malik from Humayd at-Tawil that Anas ibn Malik said, "A virgin has seven nights, and a woman who has been previously married has three nights." Malik affirmed, "That is what is done among us." Malik added, "If the man has another wife, he divides his time equally between them after the wedding nights. He does not count the wedding nights against the one he has just married."

Notes

• قَالَ مَالِكٌ: وَذلِكَ الْأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا۔ وَقَالَ مَالِكٌ: فَإِنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ امْرَأَةٌ غَيْرُ الَّتِي تَزَوَّجَ، فَإِنَّهُ يَقْسِمُ بَيْنَهُمَا، بَعْدَ أَنْ تَمْضِيَ أَيَّامُ الَّتِي تَزَوَّجَ بِالسَّوَاءِ، وَلَا يَحْسِبُ عَلَى الَّتِي تَزَوَّجَ، مَا أَقَامَ عِنْدَهَا۔

• Dāraquṭnī

  اختلف فيه على حميد فرواه ابن وهب في غير الموطأ عن مالك والعمري عن حميد عن أنس مرفوعا ورواه في الموطأ موقوفا عن مالك وحده وكذلك رواه أصحاب الموطأ موقوفا ورواه عبد الجبار بن العلاء عن ابن عيينة عن حميد عن أنس مرفوعا وغيره لا يرفعه عن ابن عيينة والصحيح من قول أنس وأسنده عبد الله بن عمر العمري عن حميد عن أنس

  machine translationThere is disagreement about it regarding Ḥumayd. Ibn Wahb narrated it outside the Muwaṭṭaʾ from Mālik and al-ʿUmarī, from Ḥumayd, from Anas, as raised to the Prophet (marfūʿ). He narrated it in the Muwaṭṭaʾ as a statement of the Companion (mawqūf) from Mālik alone, and likewise the transmitters of the Muwaṭṭaʾ narrated it as mawqūf. ʿAbd al-Jabbār b. al-ʿAlāʾ narrated it from Ibn ʿUyaynah, from Ḥumayd, from Anas, as marfūʿ, but others do not raise it from Ibn ʿUyaynah. The sound (ṣaḥīḥ) position is that it is a statement of Anas, and ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar al-ʿUmarī traced it back with a connected chain (asnadahu) from Ḥumayd, from Anas. Report a problem
