Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الطلاق واللعان باب ما جاء فى الحامل المتوفى عنها زوجها تضع
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ عَنْ أَبِى السَّنَابِلِ بْنِ بَعْكَكٍ قَالَ وَضَعَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِثَلاَثَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ أَوْ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا فَلَمَّا تَعَلَّتْ تَشَوَّفَتْ لِلنِّكَاحِ فَأُنْكِرَ عَلَيْهَا ذَلِكَ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِىِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ إِنْ تَفْعَلْ فَقَدْ حَلَّ أَجَلُهَا.
Subay'ah gave birth twenty-three or twenty-five days after her husband's death. So after purifying herself at the end of her post-partum bleeding period, she adorned herself for marriage suitors. Her action was met with disapproval, so the matter was referred to the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, who said, "If she does so, her prescribed period did pass." (1) Footnotes: (1): This is an indication that the waiting period of a pregnant woman (i.e. before being able to remarry after her husband passes away), is until she gives birth, and this is the view of most of the scholars.
