Arabic text

4601 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا: {وَإِنِ امْرَأَةٌ خَافَتْ مِنْ بَعْلِهَا نُشُوزًا أَوْ إِعْرَاضًا} [النساء: 128] قَالَتْ: " الرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ عِنْدَهُ المَرْأَةُ لَيْسَ بِمُسْتَكْثِرٍ مِنْهَا، يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُفَارِقَهَا، فَتَقُولُ: أَجْعَلُكَ مِنْ شَأْنِي فِي حِلٍّ، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ فِي ذَلِكَ "
