Hadith #309
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَنْبَأَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ لَمَّا خُيِّرَتْ بَرِيرَةُ رَأَيْتُ زَوْجَهَا يَتْبَعُهَا فِي سِكَكِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَدُمُوعُهُ تَسِيلُ عَلَى لِحْيَتِهِ فَكُلِّمَ الْعَبَّاسُ لِيُكَلِّمَ فِيهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِبَرِيرَةَ إِنَّهُ زَوْجُكِ فَقَالَتْ تَأْمُرُنِي بِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا شَافِعٌ قَالَ فَخَيَّرَهَا فَاخْتَارَتْ نَفْسَهَا وَكَانَ عَبْدًا لِآلِ الْمُغِيرَةِ يُقَالُ لَهُ مُغِيثٌ

English Translation
Hushaym narrated to us, Khalid informed us, from 'Ikrimah, from Ibn 'Abbas, who said: "When Barirah was given the choice, I saw her husband following her through the streets of Madinah with tears streaming down his beard. Al-'Abbas was asked to speak to the Prophet ﷺ on his behalf. the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Barirah: 'He is your husband.' She said: 'Are you commanding me, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'I am only interceding.' So he gave her the choice, and she chose herself. Her husband was a slave belonging to the family of al-Mughirah, called Mughith."
