3536. It was narrated from Al-Miswar bin Makhramah that Subai'ah Al-Aslamiyyah gave birth one day after her husband died. She came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and asked his permission to marry, and he gave her permission to marry and she married. (Sahih)
3506 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ، قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ وَاللَّفْظُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَا: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ: أَنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةَ نُفِسَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ، فَجَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْ أَنْ تَنْكِحَ، «فَأَذِنَ لَهَا» فَنَكَحَتْ

If a woman's husband dies, and if she is pregnant, her waiting period, according to the majority of the people of knowledge, instead of four months and ten days, ends when she delivers her burden. When the child is born, she is free when her postnatal bleeding (Nifās) ceases. She may further marry. No mourning is required of her. It was the opinion of Ibn 'Abbās ؓ that the latter is the waiting period of the two: that means if the child is born before the expiration of the period of four months and ten days, the waiting period shall be four months and ten days; and if the four months and ten days intervene first or come to an end before the birth of the child, the waiting period shall be the childbirth. So to speak, he thought mourning has its own place and the childbirth has its own.
