Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الطلاق واللعان باب ما جاء فى اللعان
أَنْبَأَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ أَنْبَأَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ لاَعَنَ رَجُلٌ امْرَأَتَهُ وَفَرَّقَ النَّبِىُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَيْنَهُمَا وَأَلْحَقَ الْوَلَدَ بِالأُمِّ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ.
A man swore that his wife had committed adultery (1). The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, ordered the couple to separate (2) and attributed the child to the mother [with regards to kinship and inheritance]. (1) A man who accuses his wife of adultery swears to it four times and the fifth time ensures that he will be deserving of God's curse if he is lying. (2) Only a judge or ruler may separate a man from his wife in such cases. Click on ḥadīth to read more
