[3704] 41 – (…) It was narrated from 'Ubaidullâh bin 'Abdullâh bin 'Utbah that AN 'Amr bin Uafs bin Al-MughIrah set out with 'All bin AbI Talib for Yemen, and he sent word to his wife Fâtimah bint Qais with her final divorce, and told Al-Hâriih bin Hishâm and 'Ayyâsh bin AbI RabI'ah to give her some maintenance. They said to her: "By Allah, you will not have any maintenance unless you are pregnant." She came to the Prophet and told him what they had said, and he said: "There is no maintenance for you." She asked him for permission to move, and he gave her permission. She said: "Where, 0 Messenger of Allah?" He said: "To Ibn Umm Maktüm." He was blind, so she could take off her garments in his house and he would not see her. When her 'Iddah was over, the Li Prophet married her to Usâmah bin Zaid. Marwân sent : Qabisah bin Dhuwaib to her to ask her about this HadIth, and she narrated it to him. Marwân J : L said: "We have only heard this HadW from a woman, so we will follow what we are certain of, which is what we found the people following." When news of what Marwân said reached Fâtimah she said: "Between you Jt; L and I is the Qur'ân. Allah, Most High. says: "…And turn them not out of their (husband's) homes …… 1' She said: "This is for 7J L :!JU fl: L5k3] one whose divorce is revocable, so what new thing will Allah bring to pass after the third (irrevocable divorce)? How can you say that she is not entitled to maintenance if she is not pregnant? On what grounds do you detain her?"
