    Hey i am confused about 1 hadith.

    Sunan Abi Dawud 2049

    Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas:

    A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ), and said: My wife does not prevent the hand of a man who touches her. He said: Divorce her. He then said: I am afraid my inner self may covet her. He said: Then enjoy her.

    قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ كَتَبَ إِلَىَّ حُسَيْنُ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ أَبِي حَفْصَةَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي لاَ تَمْنَعُ يَدَ لاَمِسٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏”‏ غَرِّبْهَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَخَافُ أَنْ تَتْبَعَهَا نَفْسِي ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏”‏ فَاسْتَمْتِعْ بِهَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏

    Grade: Sahih (Al-Albani) صحيح (الألباني) حكم :

    Reference : Sunan Abi Dawud 2049

    In-book reference : Book 12, Hadith 4

    English translation : Book 11, Hadith 2044

    Is it true and if true, what does it means? Specifically word “then enjoy her” . I think may be true words are “then kill her”?

    The translation is correct. All kind of people were there. When the man refused to divorce his wife despite her immorality, that was the only possible thing thr prophet told him.

    Man has no authority to kill his wife for this kind of act. The prophet could not ask him to murder her. It would be a crime.

    Whether its allowed or not? just give clear answer. If a wife enjoying other men, should husband allow her as he is also interested in her and keep her as his wife? As per Hadith above?

    A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ), and said: My wife does not prevent the hand of a man who touches her. He said: Divorce her. He then said: I am afraid my inner self may covet her. He said: Then enjoy her.

    What does it means ” Then Enjoy Her” what exactly he wanted to say?
