قَرَأْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى، أَخْبَرَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ سَهْلَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ: عُوَيْمِرًا الْعَجْلَانِيَّ جَاءَ إِلَى عَاصِمِ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ فَقَالَ: يَا عَاصِمُ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجلاً وَجَدَ مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلًا أَيَقْتُلُهُ؟ فَتَقْتُلُونَهُ أَمْ كَيْفَ يَفْعَلُ؟ سَلْ لِي عَنْ ذَلِكَ يَا عَاصِمُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. فَسَأَلَ عَاصِمٌ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ: فَكَرِهَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَسَائِلَ وَعَابَهَا حَتَّى كَبُرَ عَلَى عَاصِمٍ مِمَّا يَسْمَعُ، قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: مَا سَمِعَ، مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ عَاصِمٌ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ جَاءَهُ عُوَيْمِرٌ فَقَالَ: يَا عَاصِمُ مَاذَا قَالَ لكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَقَالَ عَاصِمٌ لِعُوَيْمِرٍ: لَمْ تَأْتِنِي بِخَيْرٍ قَدْ كَرِهَ (٢) رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَسْأَلَةَ الَّتِي سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْهَا، فَقَالَ عُوَيْمِرٌ: وَاللهِ لَا، ، أَنْتَهِي حَتَّى أَسْأَلَهُ عَنْهَا، فَأَقْبَلَ عُوَيْمِرٌ حَتَّى أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَسْطَ النَّاسِ، فَقَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا وَجَدَ مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ رَجُلًا أَيَقْتُلُهُ فَتَقْتُلُونَهُ أَمْ كَيْفَ يَفْعَلُ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " قَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللهُ فِيكَ وَفِي صَاحِبَتِكَ، فَاذْهَبْ فَأْتِ بِهَا ". قَالَ سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ: فَتَلَاعَنَا، وَأَنَا مَعَ النَّاسِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَا. قَالَ عُوَيْمِرٌ: كَذَبْتُ عَلَيْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنْ أَمْسَكْتُهَا فَطَلَّقَهَا ثَلَاثًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْمُرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) that Uwaymir (may Allah be pleased with him) once came to Asim bin Adi (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "Ask the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) about this issue: if a man finds another man with his wife and kills him, will he also be killed in retaliation, or what will be done with him?" Asim (may Allah be pleased with him) asked the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) about this issue, but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) did not like this question. Later, Uwaymir (may Allah be pleased with him) met Asim (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked, "What happened?" Asim (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, "What could have happened? You did not tell me a good thing. I asked the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), but he did not like this question." Uwaymir (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "By Allah! I will go myself to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) and will ask him this question." So he presented himself in the court of Prophethood, and by that time, revelation had already come to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) regarding this matter. Therefore, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) called both husband and wife and had them perform li'an (mutual cursing). Then Uwaymir (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Messenger of Allah! If I take her back with me, it would mean that I have wronged her." So, even before the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) commanded, he separated from his wife (divorced her), and this practice became established among those who perform li'an.
