حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْقَاسِمَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ، يَقُولُ إِنَّ يَزِيدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ رِجَالٍ وَبَيْنَ نِسَائِهِمْ وَكُنَّ أُمَّهَاتِ أَوْلاَدِ رِجَالٍ هَلَكُوا فَتَزَوَّجُوهُنَّ بَعْدَ حَيْضَةٍ أَوْ حَيْضَتَيْنِ فَفَرَّقَ بَيْنَهُمْ حَتَّى يَعْتَدُّونَ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا . فَقَالَ الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ فِي كِتَابِهِ {وَالَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَيَذَرُونَ أَزْوَاجًا} مَا هُنَّ مِنَ الأَزْوَاجِ .
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said that hehad heard al-Qasim ibn Muhammad say that Zayd ibn Abd al-Malikseparated some men and their wives who were slave-girls who had bornechildren to men who had died, because they had married them after oneor two menstrual periods. He separated them until they had done anidda of four months and ten days. Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad said, "Glorybe to Allah! Allah says in His Book, 'Those of you who die, leavingwives, they are not wives.' " Translation Not Available
