Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَقْسَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ شَهْرًا قَالَتْ فَلَبِثَ تِسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ قَالَتْ فَكُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ بَدَأَ بِهِ فَقُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَلَيْسَ كُنْتَ أَقْسَمْتَ شَهْرًا فَعَدَّتْ الْأَيَّامُ تِسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الشَّهْرُ تِسْعٌ وَعِشْرُونَ.
English Translation
Abd al-A'la told us, from Ma'mar, from al-Zuhri, from Urwah b. al-Zubayr, from Aishah, that she said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) swore not to go in to his wives for a month. She said: He remained away twenty-nine days. She said: I was the first he came to, and I said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "Did you not swear a month?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) counted the days as twenty-nine and said, "The month is twenty-nine days."
