أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ الْغُمَيْصَاءَ، أَوِ الرُّمَيْصَاءَ أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم تَشْتَكِي زَوْجَهَا أَنَّهُ لاَ يَصِلُ إِلَيْهَا فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ أَنْ جَاءَ زَوْجُهَا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هِيَ كَاذِبَةٌ وَهُوَ يَصِلُ إِلَيْهَا وَلَكِنَّهَا تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَرْجِعَ إِلَى زَوْجِهَا الأَوَّلِ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى تَذُوقِي عُسَيْلَتَهُ " .
Ali bin Hujr narrated to us; Hushaym informed us; Yahya bin Abi Ishaq informed us, from Sulayman bin Yasar, from Ubaydullah bin Abbas, that Ghumaysa—or Rumaysa—came to the Prophet, complaining that her husband did not have intercourse with her. Her husband soon came and said, ‘Messenger of Allah, she is lying. I do have intercourse with her; she only wants to return to her first husband.’ The Messenger of Allah said, ‘That cannot happen until you taste his sweetness.’
Translation notes
‘Taste his sweetness’ preserves the Arabic euphemism for marital intercourse.
