Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya Ibn Said from Sulayman Ibn Yasar that Abdullah Ibn Abbas and Abu Salama Ibn Abdulrahman Ibn Awuf differed on the question of a wornan who gave birth a few nights after the death of her husband. Abu Salama said; When she gives birth to the child she is carrying; she is free to marry. Ibn Abbas said; At the end of two periods. Abu Huraira came and said; I am with my nephew; meaning Abu Salama. They sent Kurayb; a mawla of Abdullah Ibn Abbas to Umm Salamah; the wife of the Prophet; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; to ask her about it. He came back and told them that she had said that Subaya AlAslamiya had given birth a few nights after the death of her husband; and she had brought the matter to the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; and he had said; You are free to marry; so marry whomever you wish. Malik said; This is how the people of knowledge here continue to act. 29.31 Widows Remaining in Their Houses until Free to Marry
