‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Umarرضي هللا عنهماreported: So-and-so came and asked: "O Messenger of
Allah ﷺ, if one of us finds his wife committing adultery: wha t should he do?
If he were to speak, his statement would be a horrible matter, and if he were to remain
silent, his silence about the matter would be horrible too." Messenger of Allah
ﷺremained silent. After some time, the man came back to the Messenger of
Allah ﷺand said: "I have become afflicted by the very thing I asked you
about." Then Allah, the Exalted, revealed these verses of Sūrat An-Nūr (which begins
with): {And those who accuse their wives} [Sūrat- An-Nūr: 6]. The Messenger of Allah
ﷺrecited them to him. Then he admonished him, exhorted him, and
informed him that the torment of this world is less painful than the torment of the
Hereafter. The man said: "No, by the One Who sent you with the Truth, I did not tell a
lie against her." The Messenger of Allah ﷺthen called the wife and
admonished her, exhorted her, and informed her that the torment of this world is less
painful than the torment of the Hereafter. She said: "No, by the One Who sent you with
the Truth, he is a liar." The Messenger of Allah ﷺstarted with the man, who
testified in the name of Allah four times that he was truthful, and the fifth time, he said:
"Let Allah's curse fall upon me if I am a liar." Then the woman was summoned, and
she testified four times by the name of Allah that her husband was among the liars, and
the fifth time, she said: "Let the anger of Allah fall upon me if he is truthful." Then the
Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) separated them and said:
"Indeed, Allah knows that one of you is a liar, so would any of you repent?" He said
this statement thrice. According to another wording of the Hadīth, the Messenger of
Allah ﷺsaid: "You have no right over her." The man said: "O Messenger of

Allah ﷺ, what about my money?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ
said: "You have no right to get back your money. If you have told the truth about her,
then your money was in return for the sexual intercourse which you lawfully had with
her, and if you have told a lie about her, then you are less rightful to get your money
back."
Explanation of Hadith
Islam legislated the law of 'Li‘ān' (invoking the curse of Allah upon the liar among the two
spouses for falsehood in the matter of witnessing adultery) as a solution to the problem of a
husband witnessing another man committing adultery with his wife without four other
witnesses (or visa versa). The husband cannot just be in suspicion about the matter: he must
clearly witness the actual act of penetration of the adultery. The punishment for any false
accusation and lying in this matter is extremely grievous (torment in Hellfire). The man in
this story was feeling doubtful about the conduct of his wife and was worried that she might
commit adultery. He was confused about what to do, for if he accused her (without the four
witnesses) then he would undergo the relevant legal punishment (of whipping, etc), and if he
remained silent about it then he would be considered a cuckold and suffer disgrace. He went
to the Messenger of Allah ﷺand mentioned these things to him. The Messenger
of Allah ﷺremained silent as he did not like to answer questions about issues
which had not yet occurred, because this leads to evil and could possibly open the doors for
evil to occur. In addition to that no verses were yet revealed to the Messenger of Allah
ﷺregarding this issue. After some time the same man who questioned the
Messenger of Allah ﷺsaw the monstrosity (adultery) he had asked about
previously and about which he had worries. Thereupon Allah revealed some rulings
regarding this issue in Sūrat An-Nūr, as He says (what means) {Those who accuse their
wives} [Qur'an 24:6]. The Messenger of Allah ﷺrecited these verses to the
man, admonished him and reminded him that if he was lying in accusing his wife, then the
worldly punishment of false accusations is less severe than the punishment of the Hereafter.
The man swore the sacred oath by Allah that he was not lying about witnessing and accusing
his wife of adultery. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺcalled the wife and
admonished her and told her that the punishment of this life is less severe than the
punishment of the Hereafter. Then she swore also that her husband was a liar. Then, the
Messenger of Allah ﷺ, started by the one with whom Allah has started with (i.e.
in the Qur'anic verses mentioned above), the husband. The man testified four times by Allah
that he was truthful in what he accused his wife with, and upon the fifth time he invoked the
curse of Allah upon himself if he was a liar. Then the Messenger of Allah )ﷺ
summoned his wife, and she testifies four times by Allah that her husband was a liar, and she
also upon the fifth time invoked the anger of Allah upon herself if her husband was truthful.
Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ of Allah ﷺsaid: "you have no
right to claim the dowry: if you were truthful about her committing adultery then the dowry
you gave her was in exchange for your sexual relations with her during your marriage. And if
you were lying about her, then it is even less rightful that you would receive anything
because you accused her of such a terrible lie and great falsehood.

ِ سُ َوا ْنتَفَى ِمنْ َولَ ِدهَا فِي زَ َم ِن َر, ُ((أَنَّ َر ُجالً َر َمى ا ْم َرأَتَه عَنْ َع ْب ِد هَّللا ِ ْب ِن ُع َم َر رضي هللا عنهما
On the authority of Abu Hurairah - رضي هللا عنهما- with a chain of transmission traceable
to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: “If one of you prays for the people, let him
make it short, for among them are the weak, the sick, and the needy.
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ- commanded the imams to shorten the prayer
according to what the Sunnah came with, and he justified that because behind them is weak
in structure, weak in strength, and among them is sick, and among them is in need.

Abu Hurayrah رضي هللا عنهreported that a Bedouin man came to the Messenger of
Allah ﷺand said: "My wife has given birth to a black boy." The
Messenger of Allah ﷺasked him: "Do you have camels?" He replied:
'Yes.' The Prophet asked: "What color are they?" He replied: 'Red.' The
Messenger of Allah ﷺasked: "Is any of them gray?" He replied:
'Yes.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺasked: "From where did that
grayness come?" He said: "It might have inherited it from its ancestors." The
Messenger of Allah ﷺsaid: "Perhaps this son of yours (also)
inherited it (this color) from his ancestors."
Explanation of Hadith
A boy was born to a man from the tribe of Fazārah, and the color of the baby's skin
was different from that of his father and mother. The father thus had doubts that the
boy was not his child, so he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺto inform
him that his wife gave birth to a black child, thus implying an accusation of adultery.
The Messenger of Allah ﷺunderstood what he meant and wanted to
convince the man and remove his doubt, so he made an analogy which is familiar and
known to the man. He asked him if he had camels and what their color was. He
replied in the affirmative and that they were red. He then asked him if there were any
grey camels among them, and he said: 'Yes.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ
then asked him where that different color came from. The man replied that perhaps it

came by heredity from the lineage of the animal; one of its parentages. The
Messenger of Allah ﷺsaid that the case of his son was similar to this
and that there might have been a black person in the man's ancestors, so therefore the
boy inherited the color. The man was convinced with this sound analogy, and the
doubts in his mind were removed.
Exposing to slander is not slander, so it does not require a hadd punishment, and it is
not considered backbiting if it comes to a question, and does not mean mere slander
and slander.
That the boy catches up with his parents, even if his color differs from theirs, Ibn
Daqiq al-Eid said: There is evidence that the difference in color between father and

addresses people with what they know and understand. This Bedouin knows camels,
their tracks, and their lineages. He removed these thoughts from him with this parable,
which his understanding and intellect realize, so he left contented and reassured.
This is one of the wisdom in which God said: “Invite to the path of your Lord with
knowledge.

‘Ā’ishah رضي هللا عنهاreported: Sa‘d ibn Abi Waqqās and ‘Abd ibn Zam‘ah disputed
over (the lineage of) a boy. Sa‘d said: "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, this is the
son of my brother ‘Utbah ibn Abi Waqqās. He entrusted him to me saying that he was
his own son. Just look at him and see how he resembles him." ‘Abd ibn Zam‘ah said:
"O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he is my brother, as he was born on the bed of my
father from his slave girl." The Messenger of Allah ﷺlooked at the boy and
saw that he clearly resembled ‘Utbah. Thereupon, he said: "He is yours, O ‘Abd ibn
Zam‘ah. The child belongs to the owner of the bed, and the stone is for the one who
commits illegal sexual intercourse. O Sawdah, cover yourself from him." So, that boy
never saw Sawdah uncovered.
Explanation of Hadith
The boy is for the bed, and the adulterer's whore is disappointment and loss, for he is far from
the boy; Because the origin is that he is subordinate to the owner of the nation who deserves
him, and he has intercourse with her in a correct manner, but when he saw the likeness of the
boy with a threshold, he - ﷺ- was afraid to look at his sister Sawdah bint
Zam’ah with this lineage, so he ordered her to hide from him; Precaution and prudence, the
likeness and clues do not pay attention to it with the presence of the bed.
1. Istihaq is not specific to the father, rather it is permissible from the brother
2. The rule of resemblance depends only on it, if there is nothing stronger than

intercourse (the occurrence of seclusion after the contract), and that the
nation is a bed, but it is only considered the intercourse of the master, so the
4. The difference between them is that the marriage contract is intended for
intercourse, and as for the ownership of the nation, it has many purposes.
5. The boy is in bed, provided he can join the bed owner, and the hadith is the
basis for attaching the boy to the bed owner even if he has forbidden
intercourse.

that Mujazzaz looked up at Zaid bin Haritha and Osama bin Zaid, and said:

Explanation of Hadith
Zaid bin Haritha was white, and his son Osama was brown, and people were
suspicious of them - due to the difference in their colors - and spoke about the
correctness of attributing Osama to his father, which would harm the Messenger of
Allah ﷺ. The Qatif (Mujzaz al-Madlaji) passed by them, and they had
covered their heads in a robe - meaning a robe - and their legs were visible. He said
that some of these feet belonged to each other, when he saw the resemblance between
them. The words of this one who was standing were upon hearing from the Messenger
of Allah ﷺ, and he was very pleased with that, until he entered Aisha,
the secrets of his face shining, with joy and rejoicing, to be assured of the correctness
of Osama’s relation to his father, and to refute the words of those who speak their
tongues in people’s honor without knowledge

tribe other than his own. The second act refers to someone who knowingly
