Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #29337

Muhammad bin Bashar narrated to us, Muhammad bin Abi Adi narrated to us, Hisham bin Hassan narrated to us, Ikrimah narrated to me, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, that the crescent Ibn Umayyah slandered his wife in the presence of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, with Sharik ibn al-Sahma’, and the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said, “The clear evidence.” Otherwise, there will be a punishment at your back.” He said, Hilal said, “O Messenger of God, if one of us sees a man with his wife, should he seek proof?” So he made The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, says, “The evidence is clear, or else there is a punishment against you.” Hilal said, “By the One who sent you with the truth, I am telling the truth.” And let what will be revealed regarding my matter that will free my back from the punishment. So it was revealed: (And those who accuse their wives and have no witnesses except themselves. ) So he recited until he reached: (And the fifth: The wrath of God is upon her, if he is of the truthful ones.) He said, so the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, departed. So he sent for them, and they came, and Hilal bin Umayyah stood up and testified, and the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said, “God knows that one of you is a liar. Is there any of you?” Repentant. Then she stood up and testified when it was five o’clock: (Indeed, the wrath of God is upon her if he is of the truthful ones.) They told her that it was obligatory, and Ibn Abbas said, “So she delayed and backtracked until we thought she would come back, and she said, ‘I will not disgrace my people all day long.’” Then the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said, “Look at it, and if it brings it with the kohl’s eyes, darkest of the buttocks, and tingling of the legs, then it belongs to Sharik ibn “The heavens.” She brought it just like that, and the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said, “If it had not been for what had passed from the Book of God Almighty, we would have had an affair with her.” Abu Issa said: This is a good and strange hadith from this perspective, from the hadith of Hisham bin Hassan, and this is how Abbad bin Mansour narrated this. Hadith On the authority of Ikrimah, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. Ayoub narrated it on the authority of Ikrimah on a mursal report, but he did not mention in it the authority of Ibn Abbas.
