(Book 29, Hadith 21) #36238
Kaffara for Pronouncing Dhihar

SUMMARY: A man must not touch his wife until he has done the kaffara for pronouncing dhihar if he had pronounced it before marrying her.

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that a man asked al-Qasim ibn Muhammad and Sulayman ibn Yasar about a man who pronounced dhihar from his wife before he had married her. They said, "If he marries her, he must not touch her until he has done the kaffara for pronouncing dhihar".
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ رَجُلاً، سَأَلَ الْقَاسِمَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَسُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ تَظَاهَرَ مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْكِحَهَا فَقَالاَ إِنْ نَكَحَهَا فَلاَ يَمَسَّهَا حَتَّى يُكَفِّرَ كَفَّارَةَ الْمُتَظَاهِرِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a man who pronounced dhihar from his wife before he married her. Dhihar is an Arabic term which means to declare that someone is like a forbidden relative to you and cannot be married or have any kind of relationship with them. In this case, the man was told by al-Qasim ibn Muhammad and Sulayman ibn Yasar that if he marries her, he must not touch her until he has done the kaffarah for pronouncing dhihar. Kaffarah is an Arabic term which means expiation or atonement for a sin committed in Islam and can be done through various acts such as fasting or giving charity. This hadith teaches us that we should not make any promises we cannot keep and should take responsibility for our actions even if they are wrong so that we can make up for them in some way.
