Note 1

I have given my day with you to Aishah, etc.

(1) The statement: “I have given my day with you to Aishah, etc.”: In Al-Hidayah: If one wife agrees to forgo her share for another, it is permissible, per this Hadith. She may retract, as she waived a right not yet due, so it is not forfeited. Ibn al-Humam said: This applies if it is not a bribe from the husband, such as increasing her dowry to do so or marrying her on condition that he marries another and stays with her two days and the addressed one day. Such a condition is void, and the money is unlawful for her in the first case, so he may retract it. If she paid or reduced money for him, it is apparently not binding, unlawful for her, and she may retract her money.

ف: اس حدیث شریف سے معلوم ہوتا ہے کہ اگر ایک سوکن دوسری سوکن کو اپنی باری بخش دے تو جائز ہے اور یہ پھر جب چاہے اپنا حق واپس لے سکتی ہے اور اگر شوہر ترغیب اور تحریص سے یہ کام کرنا چاہے تو یہ ناجائز ہے۔ (ماخوذ از:ہدایہ12)
