Sahih Muslim 2520 — Book 13, Hadith 26

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَقْسَمَ أَنْ لاَ يَدْخُلَ عَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِ شَهْرًا - قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ - فَأَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ - رضى الله عنها - قَالَتْ لَمَّا مَضَتْ تِسْعٌ وَعِشْرُونَ لَيْلَةً أَعُدُّهُنَّ دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم - قَالَتْ بَدَأَ بِي - فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ أَقْسَمْتَ أَنْ لاَ تَدْخُلَ عَلَيْنَا شَهْرًا وَإِنَّكَ دَخَلْتَ مِنْ تِسْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ أَعُدُّهُنَّ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ الشَّهْرَ تِسْعٌ وَعِشْرُونَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Rapporté par Zuhri : (Un jour) le Messager d’Allah ﷺ a juré de ne pas aller voir ses épouses pendant un mois. Zuhri a dit que Urwa lui a rapporté d’Aïcha (qu’Allah l’agrée) qu’elle a dit : « Quand vingt-neuf nuits se sont écoulées, que j’avais comptées, le Messager d’Allah ﷺ est venu chez moi (il est venu chez moi en premier). J’ai dit : “Ô Messager d’Allah, tu avais juré de ne pas venir chez nous pendant un mois, mais tu es venu après vingt-neuf jours que j’ai comptés.” Il répondit : “Le mois peut aussi avoir vingt-neuf jours.” »
