قَضَى أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) فِي امْرَأَةٍ تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَ هِيَ حُبْلَى فَوَلَدَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَنْقَضِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَ عَشْرٌ فَتَزَوَّجَتْ فَقَضَى أَنْ يُخَلِّيَ عَنْهَا ثُمَّ لَا يَخْطُبَهَا حَتَّى يَنْقَضِيَ آخِرُ الْأَجَلَيْنِ فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَوْلِيَاءُ الْمَرْأَةِ أَنْكَحُوهَا وَ إِنْ شَاءُوا أَمْسَكُوهَا فَإِنْ أَمْسَكُوهَا رَدُّوا عَلَيْهِ مَالَهُ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father and a number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ibn Abu Najran, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Muhammad Bin Qays, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> judged regarding a woman widowed from her husband, and she was pregnant. So she gave birth before the passing of four months and ten (days). So she re-married. So he<sup>asws</sup> judged that he should isolate himself from her, then not propose to her until the passing of the later of the two terms. So if the guardians of the woman so desire to, get her married, and if they so desire to, then restrain her. So if they restrain her, his wealth would be returned to him’.
