Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَخِيهِ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ: هَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْعَزْلِ شَيْئًا؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ. سَأَلْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْعَزْلِ، فَقَالَ: وَمَا هُوَ؟ قُلْنَا: الرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ لَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ الْمُرْضِعُ، فَيُصِيبُ مِنْهَا، وَيَكْرَهُ أَنْ تَحْمِلَ، فَيَعْزِلُ عَنْهَا، وَالرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ (٢) لَهُ الْجَارِيَةُ، لَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرَهَا، فَيُصِيبُ مِنْهَا، وَيَكْرَهُ أَنْ تَحْمِلَ فَيَعْزِلُ عَنْهَا، فَقَالَ: "، ، لَا عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ لَا تَفْعَلُوا، فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ الْقَدَرُ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

Ma'bad bin Sirin says that once I asked Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) whether he had heard anything from the Prophet (ﷺ) regarding 'azl (withdrawal). He replied, "Yes! We asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about 'azl, so the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'What is that?' We explained that a man's wife is breastfeeding a child, and during that time he approaches her, but he does not like her to become pregnant again, so he discharges outside. Similarly, a man may have a slave woman and no other wealth besides her; he approaches her but does not like her to become pregnant, so he practices 'azl. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'If you do not do so, it will not make any difference, because the coming of children is connected to destiny.'"
