English translation
3544. It was narrated from Sulaimân bin Yasâr that 'Abdullâh bin 'Abbâs and Abû Salamah bin 'Abdur-Rahmân disagreed concerning a woman who gave birth one day after her husband died. 'Abdullâh bin 'Abbâs said: "(She should wait) for the longer of the two periods." Abû Salamah said: "When she has given birth, it becomes permissible for her to remarry." Abû Hurairah came and said: "I agree with my brother's son" - meaning Abû Salamah bin 'Abdur-Rahmân. They sent Kuraib, the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbâs, to Umm Salamah to ask her about that. He came back to them and told them that she said: "Subai'ah gave birth one day after her husband died;" she mentioned that to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and he said: "It has become permissible for you to marry." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
