(3). 3016. Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī said: "On the Day of Awtās, we captured some women who had husbands among the idolaters. So some of the men disliked that, so Allāh, Most High, revealed: And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess...."[1] (Sahīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan.

Arabic text

٣٠١٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌حَبَّانُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌هَمَّامُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي عَلْقَمَةَ الْهَاشِمِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: «لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ أَوْطَاسٍ» أَصَبْنَا نِسَاءً لَهُنَّ أَزْوَاجٌ فِي الْمُشْرِكِينَ، فَكَرِهَهُنَّ رِجَالٌ مِنَّا، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ: {وَالْمُحْصَنَاتُ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ إِلا مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُمْ} هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ.

Commentary

For a solution and as a permanent principle regarding war captives, particularly those who are given a female captive as their share from the spoils of war, even though her non-believer and polytheist husband is alive; the recipient was allowed to have sexual intercourse with her after finding out the condition of her womb. The term 'finding out the clear condition of the womb' means to wait for her to have one menstrual cycle, if she menstruates then sexual intercourse with her will be allowed after her menses; and if she is pregnant, then the delivery of the pregnancy will be awaited.
