3080. It was narrated from Kulthūm from Zainab that she was combing the hair of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and the wife of 'Uthmān bin 'Affān and some Muhājir women were with him, complaining about being evicted from their houses. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ordered that the houses of the Muhājirīn were to be inherited by their wives. When 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd died, his wife inherited a house in Al-Madinah. (Da'if)

Arabic text

3080 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ جَامِعِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ، عَنْ كُلْثُومٍ، عَنْ زَيْنَبَ، أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَفْلِي رَأْسَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَعِنْدَهُ امْرَأَةُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ وَنِسَاءٌ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرَاتِ وَهُنَّ يَشْتَكِينَ مَنَازِلَهُنَّ أَنَّهَا تَضِيقُ عَلَيْهِنَّ، وَيُخْرَجْنَ مِنْهَا «فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلّى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ تُوَرَّثَ دُورَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ النِّسَاءُ»، فَمَاتَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَوُرِّثَتْهُ امْرَأَتُهُ دَارًا بِالْمَدِينَةِ

Commentary

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had granted plots of land to the Emigrants in Al-Madinah in order that they build their houses there. And since these were barren portions of land that were developed by these people, they were declared as their own. This explains the author's incorporation of this Hadith under this chapter. The decision to grant the houses to the widows of their husbands was specific to the wives of the Emigrants at that time.
