Narrated Ibn `Abbas: That was Mughith, the slave of Bani so-and-so, i.e., Barira's husband as if I am now looking at him following her (Barira) along the streets of Medina.

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: Barira's husband was a black slave called Mughith, the slave of Bani so-and-so-- as if I am seeing him now, walking behind her along the streets of Medina.

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: Barira's husband was a slave called Mughith, as if I am seeing him now, going behind Barira and weeping with his tears flowing down his beard. The Prophet said to `Abbas, "O `Abbas! are you not astonished at the love of Mughith for Barira and the hatred of Barira for Mughith?" The Prophet then said to Barira, "Why don't you return to him?" She said, "O Allah's Apostle! Do you order me to do so?" He said, "No, I only intercede for him." She said, "I am not in need of him."

Narrated Al-Aswad: Aisha intended to buy Barira, but her masters stipulated that her wala wound be for them. Aisha mentioned that to the Prophet who said (to `Aisha), "Buy and manumit her, for the wala is for the one who manumits." Once some me; was brought to the Prophet and was said, "This meat was given in charity to Barira. " The Prophet said, "It an object of charity for Barira and present for us." Narrated Adam: Shu`ba relate the same Hadith and added: Barira was given the option regarding her husband.

Narrated Nafi`: Whenever Ibn `Umar was asked about marrying a Christian lady or a Jewess, he would say: "Allah has made it unlawful for the believers to marry ladies who ascribe partners in worship to Allah, and I do not know of a greater thing, as regards to ascribing partners in worship, etc. to Allah, than that a lady should say that Jesus is her Lord although he is just one of Allah's slaves."

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: The pagans were of two kinds as regards their relationship to the Prophet and the Believers. Some of them were those with whom the Prophet was at war and used to fight against, and they used to fight him; the others were those with whom the Prophet made a treaty, and neither did the Prophet fight them, nor did they fight him. If a lady from the first group of pagans emigrated towards the Muslims, her hand would not be asked in marriage unless she got the menses and then became clean. When she became clean, it would be lawful for her to get married, and if her husband emigrated too before she got married, then she would be returned to him. If any slave or female slave emigrated from them to the Muslims, then they would be considered free persons (not slaves) and they would have the same rights as given to other emigrants. The narrator then mentioned about the pagans involved with the Muslims in a treaty, the same as occurs in Mujahid's narration. If a male slave or a female slave emigrated from such pagans as had made a treaty with the Muslims, they would not be returned, but their prices would be paid (to the pagans).

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: Qariba, The daughter of Abi Umaiyya, was the wife of 'Umar bin Al-Khattab. 'Umar divorced her and then Mu'awiyya bin Abi Sufyan married her. Similarly, Um Al-Hakam, the daughter of Abi Sufyan was the wife of 'Iyad bin Ghanm Al-Fihri. He divorced her and then 'Abdullah bin 'Uthman Al-Thaqafi married her.

And Abdul Warith bin Sa’eed narrated, from him Khalid Hadhdha narrated, from him Ikrimah narrated, and from him Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated that if a Christian woman accepts Islam a little before her husband, then she becomes unlawful for her husband. And Dawood narrated that from him Ibrahim al-Saigh narrated that Ata was asked about a woman who belonged to the people under protection (dhimmi) and accepted Islam, then after that her husband also accepted Islam during her waiting period (‘iddah), so is she considered his wife? He replied: No, but if he wishes to marry her anew, with a new dowry, (then he may do so). Mujahid said: (After the wife accepts Islam), if the husband accepts Islam during her waiting period, then he should marry her. And Allah the Exalted said «لا هن حل لهم ولا هم يحلون لهن» :“Believing women are not lawful for polytheist men, nor are polytheist men lawful for believing women.”And Hasan and Qatadah said about two Magians (Zoroastrians) who were husband and wife and accepted Islam, that both remain upon their marriage, but if one of them precedes the other in accepting Islam and the other refuses, then the woman is separated from her husband and the husband cannot have her (except through a new marriage). And Ibn Jurayj said: I asked Ata, if a woman from the polytheists comes to the Muslims (after accepting Islam), should her polytheist husband be given back her dowry? Because Allah the Exalted said «وأتوهم ما أنفقوا» :“And return to them what they have spent.”Ata replied: No, this was only between the Prophet (peace be upon him) and the treaty polytheists. And Mujahid said: All this was due to the mutual treaty between the Prophet (peace be upon him) and the Quraysh.

Narrated `Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) When believing women came to the Prophet as emigrants, he used to test them in accordance with the order of Allah. 'O you who believe! When believing women come to you as emigrants, examine them . . .' (60.10) So if anyone of those believing women accepted the above mentioned conditions, she accepted the conditions of faith. When they agreed on those conditions and confessed that with their tongues, Allah's Apostle would say to them, "Go, I have accepted your oath of allegiance (for Islam). By Allah, and hand of Allah's Apostle never touched the hand of any woman, but he only used to take their pledge of allegiance orally. By Allah, Allah's Apostle did not take the pledge of allegiance of the women except in accordance with what Allah had ordered him. When he accepted their pledge of allegiance he would say to them, "I have accepted your oath of allegiance."

Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Apostle took an oath that he would abstain from his wives, and at that time his leg had been sprained (dislocated). So he stayed in the Mashruba (an attic room) of his for 29 days. Then he came down, and they (the people) said, "O Allah's Apostle! You took an oath to abstain from your wives for one month." He said, "The month is of twenty nine days."
