(60) باب مَقَامِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا حَتَّى تَحِلَّ
It was narrated from Al-Fari'ah bint Malik that her husband went out to pursue some slaves and they killed him. Shu'bah and Ibn Juraij said:
"She was in a remote house. She came with her brothers to the Messenger of Allah and told him (about the situation) and he granted her a concession. When she was leaving he called her back and said: 'Stay in your house until the term prescribed is fulfilled.'" (FR)
