5202. Narrated Umm Salama: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا The Prophet ﷺ took an oath that he would (1) (Chap. 93) It is permissible anyhow, to stay at home or somewhere else on abstaining from sleeping with one's wife. not enter upon some of his wives for one month. But when twenty-nine days had elapsed, he went to them in the morning or evening. It was said to him, "O Allāh's Prophet! You had taken an oath that you would not enter upon them for one month." He replied, "The month can be of twenty-nine days."

5202 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ، أَنَّ عِكْرِمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الحَارِثِ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، أَخْبَرَتْهُ: " أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَلَفَ لاَ يَدْخُلُ عَلَى بَعْضِ أَهْلِهِ شَهْرًا، فَلَمَّا مَضَى تِسْعَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ يَوْمًا غَدَا عَلَيْهِنَّ أَوْ رَاحَ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ، حَلَفْتَ أَنْ لاَ تَدْخُلَ عَلَيْهِنَّ شَهْرًا؟ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الشَّهْرَ يَكُونُ تِسْعَةً وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا»
