Malik related to me from Abd ar-Rahman ibn Muhammad ibn Abdullahibn Abd al-Qari that his father said, "A man came to Umar ibn al-Khattab from Abu Musa al-Ashari. Umar asked after various people, andhe informed him. Then Umar inquired, 'Do you have any recent news?' Hesaid, 'Yes. A man has become a kafir after his Islam.' Umar asked,'What have you done with him?' He said, 'We let him approach andstruck off his head.' Umar said, 'Didn't you imprison him for threedays and feed him a loaf of bread every day and call on him to tawbathat he might turn in tawba and return to the command of Allah?' ThenUmar said, 'O Allah! I was not present and I did not order it and I amnot pleased since it has come to me!' " Translation Not Available

Malik related to me from Yahya ibn Said from Said ibn al-Musayyabthat a Syrian man called Ibn Khaybari found a man with his wife andkilled him, or killed them both. Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan found itdifficult to make a decision and he wrote to Abu Musa al-Ashari to askAli ibn Abi Talib for him about that. So Abu Musa asked Ali ibn AbiTalib and AIi said to him, "Is this thing in my land? I adjure you,you must tell me." Abu Musa explained to him how Muawiya ibn AbiSufyan had written him to ask Ali about it. Ali said, "I am Abu Hasan.If he does not bring four witnesses, then let him be completely handedover," (to the relatives of the murdered man). Translation Not Available

Yahya said from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Urwa ibn az-Zubayrthat A'isha, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and granthim peace, said, ''Utba ibn Abi Waqqas disclosed to his brother, Sadibn Abi Waqqas, that he was the father of the son of the slave-girl ofZama, and made him promise to look after him (after his death). In theyear of the conquest, Sad took him and said, 'He is the son of mybrother. He covenanted with me about him.' Abd ibn Zama stood up andsaid, 'He is my brother and the son of my father's slave-girl. He wasborn on his bed.' They went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah blesshim and grant him peace. Sad said, 'Messenger of Allah! He is the sonof my brother, he made a covenant with me about him.' Abd ibn Zamasaid, 'He is my brother and the son of my father's slave-girl and wasborn on my father's bed.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless himand grant him peace, said, 'He is yours, Abd ibn Zama.' Then theMessenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Achild belongs to the household (where he was born) and the adultereris stoned.' Then he told Sawda bint Zama, 'Veil yourself from him,'since he saw in him a resemblance to Utba ibn Abi Waqqas." A'ishaadded, "He did not see her until he met Allah, the Mighty, theMajestic!"

Malik related to me from Yazid ibn Abdullah ibn al-Hadi fromMuhammad ibn Ibrahim ibn al-Harith at-Taymi from Sulayman ibn Yasarfrom Abdullah ibn Abi Umayya that a woman's husband died, and she didthe idda of four months and ten days. Then she married when she wasfree to marry. She stayed with her husband for four and a half months,then gave birth to a fully developed child. Her husband went to Umaribn al-Khattab and mentioned that to him, so Umar called some of theold women of the Jahiliyya and asked them about that. One of the womensaid, "I will tell you what happened with this woman. When her husbanddied, she was pregnant by him, but then the blood flowed from herbecause of his death and the child became dry in her womb. When hernew husband had intercourse with her and the water reached the child,the child moved in the womb and grew." Umar ibn al-Khattab believedher and separated them (until she had completed her idda). Umar said,"Only good has reached me about you two," and he connected the childto the first husband.
