[3710] 46 - (...) It was narrated that Abû Ishâq said: "I was with Al-Aswad bin Yazîd, sitting in the grand Masjid,[1] and Ash-Sha'bi was with us. Ash-Sha'bi narrated the Hadîth of Fâtimah bint Qais, that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ did not grant to her any accommodation nor maintenance. Then Al-Aswad took a handful of pebbles and threw them at him, and said: 'Woe to you for narrating such a thing. 'Umar said: We will not leave the Book of Allâh and the Sunnah of our Prophet ﷺ for the words of a woman when we do not know whether she remembered or forgot. She is entitled to accommodation and maintenance. And he recited the verse: "...And turn them not out of their (husband's) homes nor shall they (themselves) leave, except in case they are guilty of some open Fâhishah..."[2]

46 - (1480) وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَبَلَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ رُزَيْقٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَعَ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ جَالِسًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَعْظَمِ، وَمَعَنَا الشَّعْبِيُّ، فَحَدَّثَ الشَّعْبِيُّ بِحَدِيثِ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ، «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، لَمْ يَجْعَلْ لَهَا سُكْنَى وَلَا نَفَقَةً»، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الْأَسْوَدُ كَفًّا مِنْ حَصًى، فَحَصَبَهُ بِهِ، فَقَالَ: وَيْلَكَ تُحَدِّثُ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا، قَالَ عُمَرُ: لَا نَتْرُكُ كِتَابَ اللهِ وَسُنَّةَ نَبِيِّنَا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِقَوْلِ امْرَأَةٍ، لَا نَدْرِي لَعَلَّهَا حَفِظَتْ، أَوْ نَسِيَتْ، لَهَا السُّكْنَى وَالنَّفَقَةُ، قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {لَا تُخْرِجُوهُنَّ مِنْ بُيُوتِهِنَّ وَلَا يَخْرُجْنَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْتِينَ بِفَاحِشَةٍ مُبَيِّنَةٍ} [الطلاق: 1]،
