وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ السَّائِبَ بْنَ خَبَّابٍ، تُوُفِّيَ وَإِنَّ امْرَأَتَهُ جَاءَتْ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ فَذَكَرَتْ لَهُ وَفَاةَ زَوْجِهَا وَذَكَرَتْ لَهُ حَرْثًا لَهُمْ بِقَنَاةَ وَسَأَلَتْهُ هَلْ يَصْلُحُ لَهَا أَنْ تَبِيتَ فِيهِ فَنَهَاهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَكَانَتْ تَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ سَحَرًا فَتُصْبِحُ فِي حَرْثِهِمْ فَتَظَلُّ فِيهِ يَوْمَهَا ثُمَّ تَدْخُلُ الْمَدِينَةَ إِذَا أَمْسَتْ فَتَبِيتُ فِي بَيْتِهَا .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Saqd that hehad heard that as-Sa'ib ibn Khabbab died, and his wife went toAbdullah ibn Umar and mentioned to him that her husband had died andmentioned some land which they had at Qanah, (a district on theoutskirts of Madina), and asked him if it would be alright for her tostay overnight there. He forbade her to do so. So, she went out beforedawn from Madina and spent the whole day on their land, but whenevening came, she spent the night in her house. Translation Not Available
