وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا لَمْ يَجِدِ الرَّجُلُ مَا يُنْفِقُ عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ فُرِّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَعَلَى ذَلِكَ أَدْرَكْتُ أَهْلَ الْعِلْمِ بِبَلَدِنَا .


Yahya related to me fromMalik that he had heard that Said ibn al-Musayyab said, "If a man doesnot find the means to spend on his wife, they are to be separated . "Malik said, "That is what I saw the people of knowledge inour city doing."29.30 Idda of Widows when Pregnant
