Jami at-Tirmidhi 1145 (Book 11, Hadith 67) #26713
Rights of Women in Marriage

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a woman who was married to a man but did not enter into her until he died. Ibn Mas'ud ruled that she should receive the same dowry as other women, observe the Iddah, and get inheritance.

Alqamah narrated that : Ibn Mas'ud was asked about a man who married a woman and he did not stipulate the dowry for her, and he did not enter into her until he died. So Ibn Mas'ud said: "She gets the same dowry as other women, no less and no more, she has to observe the Iddah, and she gets inheritance". So Ma'qil bin Sinan Al-Ashja'I stood and said: "The Messenger of Allah judged the same as you have judged regarding Birwa bint Washiq, a woman of ours". So Ibn Mas'ud was happy about that.
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ، تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً وَلَمْ يَفْرِضْ لَهَا صَدَاقًا وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا حَتَّى مَاتَ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ لَهَا مِثْلُ صَدَاقِ نِسَائِهَا لاَ وَكْسَ وَلاَ شَطَطَ وَعَلَيْهَا الْعِدَّةُ وَلَهَا الْمِيرَاثُ ‏.‏ فَقَامَ مَعْقِلُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ الأَشْجَعِيُّ فَقَالَ قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِي بِرْوَعَ بِنْتِ وَاشِقٍ امْرَأَةٍ مِنَّا مِثْلَ الَّذِي قَضَيْتَ ‏.‏ فَفَرِحَ بِهَا ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ الْجَرَّاحِ ‏.‏ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْخَلاَّلُ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، كِلاَهُمَا عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، نَحْوَهُ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْهُ، مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ وَغَيْرِهِمْ وَبِهِ يَقُولُ الثَّوْرِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ مِنْهُمْ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَابْنُ عُمَرَ إِذَا تَزَوَّجَ الرَّجُلُ الْمَرْأَةَ وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا وَلَمْ يَفْرِضْ لَهَا صَدَاقًا حَتَّى مَاتَ قَالُوا لَهَا الْمِيرَاثُ وَلاَ صَدَاقَ لَهَا وَعَلَيْهَا الْعِدَّةُ ‏.‏ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الشَّافِعِيِّ قَالَ لَوْ ثَبَتَ حَدِيثُ بِرْوَعَ بِنْتِ وَاشِقٍ لَكَانَتِ الْحُجَّةُ فِيمَا رُوِيَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ‏.‏ وَرُوِيَ عَنِ الشَّافِعِيِّ أَنَّهُ رَجَعَ بِمِصْرَ بَعْدُ عَنْ هَذَا الْقَوْلِ وَقَالَ بِحَدِيثِ بِرْوَعَ بِنْتِ وَاشِقٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith discusses the rights of women in marriage. It states that when a man marries a woman and does not stipulate the dowry for her before his death, she should still receive the same dowry as other women. Additionally, she must observe an 'iddah period and is entitled to inheritance from her husband's estate. This ruling was based on what Prophet Muhammad said regarding Birwa bint Washiq, another woman of their time. The hadith emphasizes that all women have equal rights in marriage regardless of whether or not they were able to agree on a dowry beforehand.
