Explanation of the Book of Marriage-14

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then the author said: "And from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:
We used to practice coitus interruptus during the time of the Messenger of Allah when the Qur'an was being revealed. كنا نعزل على عهد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم والقرآن ينزل
Sunan Ibn Majah 1927Sahih (Darussalam)
, and if it had been something to be forbidden, the Qur'an would have forbidden it to us. Agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim"
:
Jabir says:
We practiced coitus interruptus كنا نعزل
: And the meaning of coitus interruptus has been mentioned previously.
And his saying:
during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) على عهد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والقرآن ينزل
Sahih al-Bukhari 5207
: "During his time" means during his era. And his saying:
While the Qur'an was being revealed والقرآن ينزل
However, it confirms what came before. If he had limited himself to saying:
We used to practice coitus interrupt us during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) كنا نعزل على عهد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
Sahih al-Bukhari 5207
that would have been sufficient, but he confirmed it by saying: that the Qur'an had not yet ceased, so that it could not be said: perhaps the ruling was not transmitted because the revelation had ceased.
And the clause:
While the Qur'an was being revealed والقرآن ينزل
what?
It is a circumstantial clause from the actor in his saying:
We practiced coitus interruptus نعزل
.
Yes, he said: "And if it had been something to be forbidden, the Qur'an would have forbidden it to us": "And if it had been something" means: and if coitus interruptus had been something. The subject of "was" is hidden, and this clause contains!
The student: "Was" (kana).

The Shaykh : How was it?
The student: It was hidden.
Another student: You said "in" (meaning the subject of "was"), O Shaykh.

The Shaykh : The subject of "was," yes, and the subject of "was" is hidden, and "something" is its predicate, declined in the accusative case by it.
This clause is called by the people of hadith, by technical term, "insertion" (idraj), because it is not from the speech of Jabir, but it is from the speech of Sufyan, who narrated it from him from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him). So this clause is inserted, and it is not from the speech of Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him).
And his saying: "And if it had been something to be forbidden, the Qur'an would have forbidden it to us": He attributed the prohibition to the Qur'an, even though the Qur'an is speech, not an entity that speaks, but it is an attribute. So it is said: Yes, it is correct to attribute or add the action to the Qur'an, as Allah the Exalted said:
Indeed, this Qur'an relates to the Children of Israel إن هذا القرآن يقص على بني إسرائيل
[An-Naml 27:76]
, even though the one who narrates is Allah (Mighty and Majestic) by an attribute in the Qur'an. In this hadith there are benefits, and they are the permissibility of!
The student: And in the narration of Muslim

The Shaykh : Yes: "And in a narration for Muslim:
This (the news of this practise) reached Allah's Apostle (ﷺ), and he did not forbid us. فبلغ ذلك نبي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فلم ينهنا عنه
Sahih Muslim 1440c
"
: And this narration indicates that the hadith is explicitly elevated (traced to the Prophet), because it reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and he approved it.
