Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: A man from the tribe of Muharib made an oath of abstinence (ila) from his wife. When four months had passed and he intended to return to her, the woman was in postnatal bleeding (nifas). So Sayyiduna Alqama and Sayyiduna Aswad (may Allah have mercy on them both) said: "Announce your return; she is your wife."
