أَخْبَرَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ وَمَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِحُسَيْنٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حُرْمَةُ نِسَائِ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ عَلَی الْقَاعِدِينَ کَحُرْمَةِ أُمَّهَاتِهِمْ وَمَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَخْلُفُ فِي امْرَأَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنْ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ فَيَخُونُهُ فِيهَا إِلَّا وُقِفَ لَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَأَخَذَ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ مَا شَائَ فَمَا ظَنُّکُمْ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3197
It was narrated from Sulaiman bin Buraidah that his father said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘The sanctity of the wives of the MujahidIn to those who stay behind is like the sanctity of their mothers. There is no man who takes on the responsibility of looking after the wife of one of the MujahidIn and betrays him with her but he (the betrayer) will be made to stand before him on the Day of Resurrection and he will take whatever he wants of his (good) deeds. So what do you think?” (Sahih)
