English narration
Narrated by عبد الله بن عمر العدوي
I said to Ibn `Umar, "If a man accuses his wife of illegal sexual intercourse (what is the judgment)?" He said, "Allah's Prophet separated the couple of Bani 'Ajlan (when the husband accused his wife for an illegal sexual intercourse). The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Allah knows that one of you two IS a liar; so will one of you repent?' But they refused. He then again said, 'Allah knows that one of you two is a liar; so will one of you repent?' But they refused, whereupon he separated them by divorce." Aiyub (a subnarrator) said `Amr bin Dinar said to me, "In the narration there is something which I do not see you mentioning, i.e. the husband said, "What about my money (Mahr)?' The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You are not entitled to take back money, for if you told the truth you have already entered upon her (and consummated your marriage with her) and if you are a liar then you are less entitled to take it back.

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ زُرَارَةَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عُمَرَ : "
رَجُلٌ قَذَفَ امْرَأَتَهُ ، فَقَالَ : فَرَّقَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْ بَنِي الْعَجْلَانِ ، وَقَالَ : اللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ أَحَدَكُمَا كَاذِبٌ ، فَهَلْ مِنْكُمَا تَائِبٌ ؟ فَأَبَيَا ، فَقَالَ : اللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ أَحَدَكُمَا كَاذِبٌ ، فَهَلْ مِنْكُمَا تَائِبٌ ؟ فَأَبَيَا ، فَفَرَّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا
" ، قَالَ أَيُّوبُ : فَقَالَ لِي عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ : فِي الْحَدِيثِ شَيْءٌ لَا أَرَاكَ تُحَدِّثُهُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ الرَّجُلُ : مَالِي ؟ قَالَ : لَا مَالَ لَكَ ، إِنْ كُنْتَ صَادِقًا ، فَقَدْ دَخَلْتَ بِهَا ، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ كَاذِبًا فَهُوَ أَبْعَدُ مِنْكَ .
