I swear by Allah that you have no claim on us. she went to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and mentioned that to him. He said: There is no maintenance due to you from him, and he commanded her to spend the ‘Idda in the house of Umm Sharik, but then said: That is a woman whom my companions visit. So better spend this period in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum, for he is a blind man and yon can put off your garments. And when the ‘Idda is over, inform me. She said: When my period of ‘Idda was over, I mentioned to him that Mu’awiya b. Abu Sufyan and Jahm had sent proposal of marriage to me, whereupon Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: As for Abu Jahm, he does not put down his staff from his shoulder, and as for Mu’awiya, he is a poor man having no property; marry Usama b. Zaid. I objected to him, but he again said: Marry Usama; so I married him. Allah blessed there in and I was envied (by others).
By Allah, I will inform Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), and if maintenance allowance is due to me then I will accept that which will suffice me, and if it is not due to me, I will not accept anything from him. She said: I made a mention of that to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and he said: There is neither maintenance allowance for you nor lodging.
There is no maintenance allowance for you, and you better go to the house of Ibn Umm Maktum and live with him for he is a blind man and you can put off your clothes in his house (i. e. you shall not face much difficulty in observing purdah there).
I had been married to a person from Banu Makhzum and he divorced me with irrevocable divorce. I sent a message to his family asking for maintenance allowance, and the rest of the hadith has been transmitted with a slight change of words.
My husband divorced me with three pronouncements. I decided to move (from his house to another place). So I came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), and he said: Move to the house of your cousin ‘Amr b. Umm Maktum and spend your period of ‘Idda there.
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said to me: When your period of ‘Idda is over, inform me. So I informed him. (By that time) Mu’awiya, Abu Jahm and Usama b. Zaid had given her the proposal of marriage. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: So far as Mu’awiya is concerned, he is a poor man without any property. So far as Abu Jahm is concerned, he is a great beater of women, but Usama b. Zaid… She pointed with her hand (that she did not approve of the idea of marrying) Usama. But Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon himn) said: Obedience to Allah and obedience to His Messenger is better for thee. She said: So I married him, and I became an object of envy.
My husband Abu ‘Amr b. Hafs b. al-Mughira sent ‘Ayyish b. Abu Rabi’a to me with a divorce, and he also sent through him five si’s of dates and five si’s of barley. I said: Is there no maintenance allowance for me but only this, and I cannot even spend my ‘Idda period in your house? He said: No. She said: I dressed myself and came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ). He said: How many pronouncements of divorce have been made for you? I said: Three. He said what he (‘Ayyish b. Abu Rabi’a) had stated was true. There is no maintenance allowance for you. Spend ‘Idda period in the house of your cousin, Ibn Umm Maktum. He is blind and you can put off your garment in his presence. And when you have spent your Idda period, you inform me. She said: Mu’awiya and Abu’l-Jahm (Allah be pleased with them) were among those who had given me the proposal of marriage. Thereupon Allah’s Apostle (ﷺ) said: Mu’awiya is destitute and in poor condition and Abu’l-Jahm is very harsh with women (or he beats women, or like that), you should take Usama b. Zaid (as your husband).
My husband divorced me with three pronouncements and Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) made no provision for lodging and maintenance allowance.
Allah’s Messenger, my husband has divorcee me with three pronouncements and I am afraid that I may be put to hardship, and so he commanded her and so she moved (to another house).
“Menstrual blood is blood that is black and recognizable, so if it is like that, then stop praying, and if it is otherwise, then perform Wudu’ and pray.” Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman said: Others reported this Hadith, and none of them mentioned what Ibn Abi ‘Adi mentioned. And Allah Most High, knows best.
“That is a vein, so when your period comes, do not pray, and when your period is over, purify yourself and pray in between one period and the next.” Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman said: Hisham bin ‘Urwah reported this Hadith from ‘Urwah, and he did not mention what Al-Mundhir mentioned in it.
“If it is menstrual blood then it is blood that is black and recognizable, so stop prying, and if it is other than that then perform Wudu’, for it is just a vein.”
“O Messenger of Allah, this is Fatimah bint Qais who has been divorced by so-and-so. He sent her some provision but she rejected it. He said that it was something he did not have to do (a favor).” He said: “He is telling the truth.” The Prophet said: “Go to Umm Kulthum and observe your ‘Iddah in her house.” Then he said: “Umm Kulthum is a woman who has a lot of visitors. Go to ‘Abdullah bin Umm Maktum for he is blind.” So she went to ‘Abdullah and observed her ‘Iddah in his house, until her ‘Iddah was over. Then Abu Al-Jahm and Mu’awiyah bin Abi Sufyan proposed to her. So she came to the Messenger of Allah to consult him about them. He said: “As for Abu Al-Jahm, he is a man the waving of whose stick I fear for you. And as for Mu’awiyah he is a man who does not have any money.” So she married Usamah bin Zaid after that.
“The Prophet (ﷺ) led us (in prayer), and he used to depart from both sides. (i.e. from either side).”
