The Shaykh : Yes
The Reciter: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his companions.
Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) said in the chapters on prayer in garments:
Chapter on praying on rooftops, on the pulpit, and on wood
Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Rahim narrated to us, saying: Yazid ibn Harun narrated to us, saying: Humayd al-Tawil informed us from Anas ibn Malik:.
The Shaykh : What concerns the imam and the one praying behind him has already been discussed. As for his sayingMusannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 3:727, it is from the oath (ila'), which is swearing an oath. It means that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) swore to abstain from his wives for a month, and that was due to a dispute between him and them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) was a human being who would dispute and be disputed with, especially by his wives, for they would dispute with him. But he (peace and blessings be upon him) would be patient with them and say: Sunan Ibn Majah 1977Hasan (Darussalam) . The raised platform (mashrabah) appears to be, as we say, a wooden bed. But he says , made of palm trunks. Then his came to visit him, and so on. In it is Sahih al-Bukhari 378, , meaning he came down to complete the thirty days. They said to him: . This question was not intended as an objection at all; rather, they intended to clarify the wisdom. Why did he come down on the twenty-nth day when the month can be thirty days? He said: Sahih al-Bukhari 378.
And his saying: Is the "al" here for the definite article (al-'ahd) or for specifying the type (al-nasb)? It is for the definite article, because this month was twenty-nine days. It is not for specifying the type, as evidenced by the fact that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , meaning it can be thirty days and it can be twenty-nine days.
And in it is evidence from this hadith that it is permissible to swear an oath of abstinence (ila') for a month or less than four months, but on the condition that there is a reason. Without a reason, it is not permissible. But for a reason, there is no harm in a man boycotting his wife for a month, two months, three months, or four months, but not more. What is the purpose of the oath of abstinence? Is the purpose of the oath of abstinence to cause harm? Or to discipline? The second one: to discipline. If the period is completed before four months, there is no problem. If the period exceeds four months, it is said to him: If you complete the four months, either you return to your family or you divorce her. If he returns to his family before the completion of the period, he must pay the expiation for an oath, because he has broken his oath. If he refuses to return, the wife has the right to demand the annulment of the marriage, and at that time the contract is annulled. Yes.

Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) said in the chapters on prayer in garments:
Chapter on praying on rooftops, on the pulpit, and on wood
Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Rahim narrated to us, saying: Yazid ibn Harun narrated to us, saying: Humayd al-Tawil informed us from Anas ibn Malik:
That the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) fell from his mount, and his leg or shoulder was dislocated, and he swore an oath to abstain from his wives for a month, and he sat in a raised platform of his, the steps of which were made of palm trunks, and his companions came to visit him, and he led them in prayer while sitting, while they were standing, and when he finished the prayer, he said: "The imam is placed only to be followed. So when he says the takbir, you say the takbir; when he bows, you bow; when he prostrates, you prostrate; and if he prays standing, you pray standing." He came down on the twenty-ninth day, and they said: "O Messenger of Allah, you swore an oath for a month." He said: "The month is twenty-nine days."
أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم سقط عن فرسه فجحشت ساقه أو كتفه، وآلى من نسائه شهرًا، فجلس في مشربة له درجتها من جذوع، فأتاه أصحابه يعودونه فصلى بهم جالسًا وهم قيام، فلما سلم قال: إنما جعل الإمام ليؤتم به فإذا كبر فكبروا، وإذا ركع فاركعوا وإذا سجد فاسجدوا، وإن صلى قائمًا فصلوا قيامًا، ونزل لتسع وعشرين، فقالوا يا رسول الله إنك آليت شهرًا، فقال إن الشهر تسع وعشرونThe Shaykh : What concerns the imam and the one praying behind him has already been discussed. As for his saying
He swore an oath to abstain from his wives for a month
آلى من نسائه شهراThe best of you is the one who is best to his wife, and I am the best of you to my wives.
خيركم خيركم لأهله وأنا خيركم لأهليHe sat in a raised platform
جلس في مشربةThe steps of which were made of palm trunks
درجتها من جذوعHis companions came to visit him, and he led them in prayer while sitting
أصحابه يعودونه فصلى بهم جالساAfter the 29th day the Prophet (ﷺ) came down (from the attic room) and the people asked him, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! You swore that you will not go to your wives for one month." He said, "The month is 29 days."
نزل لتسع وعشرين فقالوا: يا رسول الله إنك آليت شهرا فقال: إن الشهر تسع وعشرونHe came down on the twenty-ninth day
نزل لتسع وعشرينYou swore an oath for a month
إنك آليت شهراThe month is 29 days.
إن الشهر تسع وعشرونAnd his saying
The month
الشهرThe month is like this, and like this, and like this, and he said it a second time and closed his thumb.
الشهر هكذا وهكذا وهكذا، وقالها ثاني وقبض الإبهامAnd in it is evidence from this hadith that it is permissible to swear an oath of abstinence (ila') for a month or less than four months, but on the condition that there is a reason. Without a reason, it is not permissible. But for a reason, there is no harm in a man boycotting his wife for a month, two months, three months, or four months, but not more.
