"عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: إِنِّى لَصَاحِبُ الْمَرْأَةِ الَّتِى أُتِى بِهَا عُمَرُ وَضَعَتْ لِسِتَّةِ أَشْهُرٍ، فَأَنْكَرَ النَّاسُ ذَلِكَ، فَقُلْتُ لِعُمَرَ: لِمَ تَظْلِمُ؟ فَقَالَ: كَيْفَ؟ قُلْتُ لَهُ: اقْرَأ {وَحَمْلُهُ وَفِصَالُهُ ثَلَاثُونَ شَهْرًا} وَقَالَ: {وَالْوَالِدَاتُ يُرْضِعْنَ أَوْلَادَهُنَّ حَوْلَيْنِ كَامِلَيْنِ} كَمِ الْحَوْلُ؟ قَالَ: سَنَةٌ، قُلْتُ: كَمِ السَّنَةُ؟ قَالَ: اثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا. قُلْتُ: فَأَرْبَعَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ شَهْرًا حَوْلَان كَامِلَانِ، ويُؤَخَّرُ مِنَ الْحَمْلِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّه وَيُقَدَّمُ فَاسْتَراحَ عُمَرُ إِلَى قَوْلِى".

"On the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, who said: I was the companion of the woman whom 'Umar was brought, who had given birth after six months. The people denied that, so I said to 'Umar: 'Why do you wrong her?' He said: 'How?' I said to him: 'Recite {And his carrying and weaning is thirty months}, and He says: {And mothers breastfeed their children for two complete years}. How many is the hawl (year)?' He said: 'A year.' I said: 'How many is the year?' He said: 'Twelve months.' I said: 'Then twenty-four months are two complete years, and the carrying may be delayed or hastened by whatever Allah wills.' So 'Umar was relieved by my statement."
