Muwatta Malik

موطأ مالك

74
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ، يَقُولُ الْمَبْتُوتَةُ لاَ تَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْتِهَا حَتَّى تَحِلَّ وَلَيْسَتْ لَهَا نَفَقَةٌ إِلاَّ أَنْ تَكُونَ حَامِلاً فَيُنْفَقُ عَلَيْهَا حَتَّى تَضَعَ حَمْلَهَا . قَالَ مَالِكٌ وَهَذَا الأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا .


Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard Ibn Shihab say, "Thewoman who is absolutely divorced does not leave her house until she isfree to remarry. She has no maintenance unless she is pregnant. Inthat circumstance the husband spends on her until she gives birth."Malik said, "This is what is done among us."
