Arabic text

3198 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، أَنَّ أَنَسًا، حَدَّثَهُمْ «أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَطُوفُ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ فِي اللَّيْلَةِ الْوَاحِدَةِ، وَلَهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ تِسْعُ نِسْوَةٍ»

Commentary

There is a disagreement whether the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was obliged to apportion his time among his wives or not. But it is unanimously agreed upon that he used to apportion his time and visit all his wives by turns or in rotation.
