English translation
[3608] 33 - (1456) It was narrated from Abû Sa'eed Al-Khudrî that on the Day of Hunain, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sent an army to Awtâs, where they met the enemy, fought them and prevailed over them. They captured some female prisoners, and it was as if the Companions of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ felt reluctant to have intercourse with them because of their idolator husbands. Then Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed: "Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those (slaves) whom your right hands possess",[1] meaning, they are permissible for you once their 'Iddah has ended.
