Sa'd ibn lshaq ibn Ka’b ibn Ujrah reported from his paternal aunt Zaynab bint Kab ibn Ujrah that Sayyidah Fari’ah bint Maalik ibn Sinan the sister of Abu Sa’eed Khudri informed her: I went to Allah’s Messenger (SAW) and asked him whether I should return to my family, the Banu Khudrah. My husband went out to search for his slaves and when he was in the vicinity of Qudum, he found them but they killed him. So, I asked if may I return to my folk, for, my husband had not left for me any house, that he owned or sustenance. Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Yes.” So I went back but while I was yet in the room or mosque, Allah’s Messenger (SAW) called me, or ordered someone and I was summoned to him. He asked me, ‘What did you say?” I repeated to him the account I had recounted to him concerning my husband. He said, “Reside in your home till the prescribed period reaches its term.” So, I spent my iddah in it for four months and ten days. When Uthman sent for me and asked me about it, I informed him and he abided by it and ruled according to it.
