حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ السَّعْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

قَالَتْ دَخَلَتْ هِنْدٌ بِنْتُ عُتْبَةَ امْرَأَةُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ رَجُلٌ شَحِيحٌ لَا يُعْطِينِي مِنَ النَّفَقَةِ مَا يَكْفِينِي وَيَكْفِي بَنِيَّ إِلاَّ مَا أَخَذْتُ مِنْ مَالِهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمِهِ.

فَهَلْ عَلَىَّ فِي ذَلِكَ مِنْ جُنَاحٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «خُذِي مِنْ مَالِهِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ مَا يَكْفِيكِ وَيَكْفِي بَنِيكِ»

Aishah reported: Hind. the daughter of Utba, wife of Abu Sufyan, came to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and said: Abu Sufyan is a miserly person. He does not give adequate maintenance for me and my children, but (I am constrained) to take from his wealth (some part of it) without his knowledge. Is there any sin for me? Thereupon the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Take from his property what is customary which may suffice you and your children.

আবূ বাকর ইবনু আবূ শায়বাহ (রহঃ) ..... জাবির ইবনু সামুরাহ (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বসে সালাত না আদায় করে (অর্থাৎ বসে সালাত আদায়ের মত বার্ধক্যে পৌছার পূর্বে) মারা যাননি। (ইসলামী ফাউন্ডেশন ১৫৮৪, ইসলামীক সেন্টার)

حضرت جابربن سمرہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ نے خبر دی کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی وفات نہ ہوئی یہاں تک کہ آپ ( رات کو ) بیٹھ کر نماز پڑھنے لگے ۔

Dan telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Bakar bin Abu Syaibah] telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Ubaidullah bin Musa] dari [Hasan bin Shalih] dari [Simak], katanya; telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Jabir bin Samurah] bahwa tidaklah Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam wafat hingga kebanyakan shalatnya, beliau lakukan dengan duduk

Bize, Ebû Bekir b. Ebî Şeybe de rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize, Ubeydullah b. Mûsâ, Hasan b. Sâlih'den, o da Simâk'den, naklen rivayet etti. Şöyle demiş: Bana, Câbir b. Semura haber verdiki, Nebi (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) oturarak namaz kılmadan vefat etmemiş. İzah Bu hadîsler dahî nafile namazını oturarak kılmanın caiz olduğunu göstermektedirler.

Hafsa hadîsini Tirmizî dahî rivayet etmiş ve: «Bu hadîs hasen sahîhdir.» demişdir. Zahire bakılırsa Hz. Âişe hadîsi ile Hafsa (Radiyallahu anh) hadîsi arasında münâfât var gibi görünürse de hakîkatta aralarında hiç bir münâfât ve muâraza yokdur. Çünkü Âişe (Radiyallahu anha) 'nm: «Resûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) namazını oturarak kılıyordu.»

demesinden, «Resûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) vefatından bir seneden fazla zaman önce namazını oturarak kılıyordu.» mânâsı çıkmaz. Zâten bir yardımcı fiil olan «Kâne» devam değil, Usûl-ü fıkıh ulemâsının bir kavline göre tekrar bile iktiza etmez. Resûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem)'in vefatından bir seneden fazla önceleri nafile namazını oturarak kıldığı kabul edilse bile iki hadîs arasında yine münâfât yokdur.

Zîra Hafsa (Radiyallahu anh) ancak görmediğini bildirmişdir. O, görmeden Resûl-ü Ekrem (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) Efendimiz oturarak kılmış olabilir. Bu bâbda Ümmü Seleme (Radiyallahu anha) 'dan da rivayet vardır. Nesâî ile İbni Mâce'nin tahrîc ettikleri bu rivayette Ümmü Seleme (Radiyallahu anha) : «Nefsim, Kabza-i kudretinde olan Allah'a yemin ederim ki, Resûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) -farz namazlar müstesna- geri kalan namazların ekserisini oturarak kılmadan dünyâdan gitmedi.»

demektedir. Yine bu bâbda Enes b. Mâlik ile Abdullah b. Şihhîr (Radiyallahu anhûma) 'dan da rivayetler vardır

What it means

Hind bint ‘Utbah (may Allah be pleased with her) sought the Prophet's advice regarding her husband, Abu Sufyān (may Allah be pleased with him), who was miserly and very protective of his wealth. He did not provide for her what was enough for herself and her children, except that she secretly took from his money without his knowledge.

She asked if there was any sin upon her for doing so. He (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: Take from his wealth for yourself and your children the amount that is commonly known to be sufficient, even without his knowledge.

What it teaches

  • It is obligatory to provide for one's wife and children.
  • Ibn Hajar said: The meaning of his statement: "Take from his money what is sufficient for you in a reasonable manner," is that he referred her to the customary practice in matters where there is no legal specification.
  • Ibn Hajar said: This Hadīth is used as evidence for the permissibility of mentioning something about a person that he would not like if it is done for the purpose of seeking legal opinion, complaining, or similar reasons. This is one of the situations in which backbiting is allowed.
  • Al-Qurtubi said: Hind did not mean to describe Abu Sufyān as being miserly in all of his states; rather, she described her situation with him, that he was stingy with her and her children. This does not necessarily imply overall miserliness, as many leaders do this with their families while favoring foreigners to win their favor.
