Narrated Said bin Jubair:
I asked Ibn ‘Umar about those who were involved in a case of Lien. He said, “The Prophet said to
those who were involved in a case of Lien, ‘Your accounts are with Allah. One of you two is a liar,
and you (the husband) have no right over her (she is divorced).” The man said, ‘What about my
property (Mahr) ?’ The Prophet said, ‘You have no right to get back your property. If you have told
the truth about her then your property was for the consummation of your marriage with her; and if
you told a lie about her, then you are less rightful to get your property back.’ ” Sufyan, a sub-narrator
said: I learned the Hadith from ‘Amr. Narrated Aiyub: I heard Sa’id bin Jubair saying, “I asked Ibn
‘Umar, ‘If a man (accuses his wife for an illegal sexual intercourse and) carries out the process of
Lian (what will happen)?’ Ibn ‘Umar set two of his fingers apart. (Sufyan set his index finger and
middle finger apart.) Ibn ‘Umar said, ‘The Prophet separated the couple of Bani Al-Ajlan by divorce
and said thrice, “Allah knows that one of you two is a liar; so will one of you repent (to Allah)?’ “

Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
Those involved in a case of Lian were mentioned before Allah’s Apostle Asim bin Adi said some –
thing about that and then left. Later on a man from his tribe came to him and told him that he had
found another man with his wife. On that ‘Asim said, “I have not been put to task except for what I
have said (about Lian).” ‘Asim took the man to Allah’s Apostle and he told him of the state in which he
found his wife. The man was pale, thin and lank-haired, while the other man whom he had found
with his wife was brown, fat with thick calves and curly hair. Allah’s Apostle said, “O Allah! Reveal
the truth.” Then the lady delivered a child resembling the man whom her husband had mentioned he
had found with her. So Allah’s Apostle ordered them to carry out Lien. A man from that gathering
said to Ibn ‘Abbas, “Was she the same lady regarding whom Allah’s Apostle said, ‘If I were to stone to
death someone without witnesses, I would have stoned this lady’?” Ibn ‘Abbas said, “No, that was an –
other lady who, though being a Muslim, used to arouse suspicion because of her outright misbehavi –
or.”
