Weak graded by Salim al-Hilali Companion’s words (mawquf) Muwatta Malik 1252

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ السَّائِبَ بْنَ خَبَّابٍ، تُوُفِّيَ وَإِنَّ امْرَأَتَهُ جَاءَتْ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ فَذَكَرَتْ لَهُ وَفَاةَ زَوْجِهَا وَذَكَرَتْ لَهُ حَرْثًا لَهُمْ بِقَنَاةَ وَسَأَلَتْهُ هَلْ يَصْلُحُ لَهَا أَنْ تَبِيتَ فِيهِ فَنَهَاهَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَكَانَتْ تَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ سَحَرًا فَتُصْبِحُ فِي حَرْثِهِمْ فَتَظَلُّ فِيهِ يَوْمَهَا ثُمَّ تَدْخُلُ الْمَدِينَةَ إِذَا أَمْسَتْ فَتَبِيتُ فِي بَيْتِهَا ‏.‏

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Saqd that he had heard that as-Sa'ib ibn Khabbab died, and his wife went to Abdullah ibn Umar and mentioned to him that her husband had died and mentioned some land which they had at Qanah, (a district on the outskirts of Madina), and asked him if it would be alright for her to stay overnight there. He forbade her to do so. So, she went out before dawn from Madina and spent the whole day on their land, but when evening came, she spent the night in her house.

Abu al-Walid al-Baji — Al-Muntaqa

( ش ) : نَهَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ أَنْ تَبِيتَ الْمَرْأَةُ فِي حَرْثِهَا الَّتِي جَاءَتْهُ تَسْأَلُهُ وَهِيَ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ امْرَأَةُ السَّائِبِ بْنِ خَبَّابٍ لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا وَلَزِمَتْهَا الْعِدَّةُ فِي بَيْتِهَا فَنَهَاهَا عَنْ الْمَبِيتِ فِي حَرْثِهَا فِي مُدَّةِ عِدَّتِهَا لِمَا قَدَّمْنَاهُ مِنْ أَنَّهَا تَلْزَمُهَا السُّكْنَى فِي بَيْتِ زَوْجِهَا وَمَعْنَى السُّكْنَى وَمُعْظَمُهُ الْمَبِيتُ ; لِأَنَّهُ وَقْتُ السُّكُونِ وَالِاسْتِقْرَارِ فِي الْمَسْكَنِ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا أَنْ تُخِلَّ بِهِ وَإِنْ كَانَ لَهَا أَنْ تَنْصَرِفَ بِالنَّهَارِ , وَقَدْ تَقَدَّمَ الْكَلَامُ فِيهِ قَالَ مَالِكٌ لَهَا أَنْ تَخْرُجَ سَحَرًا قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ وَتَأْتِيَ بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ مَا بَيْن…
