أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِسْحَقَ عَنْ زَيْنَبَ عَنْ فُرَيْعَةَ أَنَّ زَوْجَهَا خَرَجَ فِي طَلَبِ أَعْلَاجٍ لَهُ فَقُتِلَ بِطَرَفِ الْقَدُّومِ قَالَتْ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَکَرْتُ لَهُ النُّقْلَةَ إِلَی أَهْلِي وَذَکَرَتْ لَهُ حَالًا مِنْ حَالِهَا قَالَتْ فَرَخَّصَ لِي فَلَمَّا أَقْبَلْتُ نَادَانِي فَقَالَ امْکُثِي فِي أَهْلِکِ حَتَّی يَبْلُغَ الْکِتَابُ أَجَلَهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3563
It was narrated from Al Fari’ah bint Malik that her husband went out to pursue some slaves and they killed him. Shu’bah and Ibn Juraij said: “She was in a remote house. She came with her brothers to the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and told him (about the situation) and he granted her a concession. When she was leaving he called her back and said: ‘Stay in your house until the term prescribed is fulfilled.” (Sahih).
