كِتَابُ النِّكَاحِ
Book: On the Explanation of Marriage
بَابُ مَا لَا يَجُوزُ مِنْ نِكَاحِ الرَّجُلِ أُمَّ امْرَأَتِهِ
Impermissibility of marrying a wife's mother
Hadith Number: 1095
وحدثني وحدثني يحيى، عن مالك، عن يحيى بن سعيد ، انه قال: سئل زيد بن ثابت عن رجل تزوج امراة، ثم فارقها قبل ان يصيبها، هل تحل له امها؟ فقال زيد بن ثابت : " لا، الام مبهمة ليس فيها شرط، وإنما الشرط في الربائب"
It is narrated from Yahya ibn Sa'id that Sayyiduna Zayd ibn Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked: A man married a woman, then left her before having intercourse with her. Is it permissible for him to marry her mother? He replied: No, because Allah, the Glorious and Exalted, has said: "Your wives' mothers are forbidden to you," and no condition has been stipulated in this regard that it applies only to those wives with whom you have had intercourse. Rather, the condition has been stipulated in the case of stepdaughters.

وحدثني، عن وحدثني، عن مالك، عن غير واحد، ان عبد الله بن مسعود استفتي وهو بالكوفة، عن نكاح الام بعد الابنة، إذا لم تكن الابنة مست، فارخص في ذلك، ثم إن ابن مسعود قدم المدينة، فسال عن ذلك، فاخبر انه ليس كما قال، وإنما الشرط في الربائب، فرجع ابن مسعود إلى الكوفة، فلم يصل إلى منزله حتى اتى الرجل الذي افتاه بذلك، " فامره ان يفارق امراته" .
Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked in Kufa: A man married a woman, then left her before consummation; now, what is the ruling on marrying her mother? He said that it is permissible. Then Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Madinah and investigated, and found out that the wife's mother is absolutely forbidden, whether one has had intercourse with the wife or not, and the condition of intercourse applies only to stepdaughters. When Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) returned to Kufa, he first went to the house of the person to whom he had given the ruling, and said to him: Leave that woman.

قال مالك في الرجل تكون تحته المراة، ثم ينكح امها فيصيبها: إنها تحرم عليه امراته، ويفارقهما جميعا، ويحرمان عليه ابدا، إذا كان قد اصاب الام، فإن لم يصب الام، لم تحرم عليه امراته، وفارق الام.
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: A man married a woman, then married her mother and had intercourse, then both the mother and daughter become permanently forbidden to him forever.

وقال مالك في الرجل يتزوج المراة، ثم ينكح امها، فيصيبها: إنه لا تحل له امها ابدا، ولا تحل لابيه، ولا لابنه، ولا تحل له ابنتها، وتحرم عليه امراته
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: However, if he does not have intercourse with the mother, then he should leave her, and her daughter will remain lawful for him.
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: If a man marries a woman, then marries her mother and has intercourse with her, then the mother’s mother will also become unlawful, and the mother will remain unlawful for that man’s father and son.
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: If a man marries a woman, then marries her mother and has intercourse with her, then the mother’s mother will also become unlawful, and the mother will remain unlawful for that man’s father and son.

قال مالك: فاما الزنا، فإنه لا يحرم شيئا من ذلك، لان الله تبارك وتعالى قال: وامهات نسائكم سورة النساء آية 23، فإنما حرم ما كان تزويجا، ولم يذكر تحريم الزنا، فكل تزويج كان على وجه الحلال يصيب صاحبه امراته، فهو بمنزلة التزويج الحلال، فهذا الذي سمعت والذي عليه امر الناس عندنا
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Prohibition is not established through fornication. That is, if a man commits fornication with a woman, her mother and daughter do not become forbidden to him, because Darqutni narrated from Sayyida Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The unlawful does not make the lawful unlawful.
تخریج الحدیث:
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: This is because Allah, the Glorious and Exalted, has said: "Your mothers are forbidden to you, and your wives' [mothers] ." So Allah has made mothers unlawful due to marriage with their daughters, not due to fornication. Therefore, when marriage is contracted with a woman, even if it is invalid, the prohibition is established, but not through fornication.
