Arabic Text

حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ رَجُلٌ لَاعَنَ امْرَأَتَهُ فَقَالَ فَرَّقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَهُمَا وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ‏.‏

English Translation

It was narrated that Sa`eed said:

I said to IbnʼUmar (رضي الله عنه): What about a man who engaged in li`an with his wife? He said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would separate them - and he mentioned the hadeeth.
