أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَکِّيِّ بْنِ عِيسَی قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ کَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ کَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِکٍ يُحَدِّثُ حَدِيثَهُ حِينَ تَخَلَّفَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوکَ وَقَالَ فِيهِ إِذَا رَسُولُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْتِينِي فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3454
II was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “A man came to him and said: ‘I have made my wife forbidden to myself.’ He said: ‘You are lying, she is not forbidden to you.’ Then he recited this Verse: ‘Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم! Why do you forbid (for yourself) that which Allah has allowed to you.’ (And he said): ‘You have to offer the severest form of expiation: Freeing a slave.” (Hasan)
