Muwatta Malik #1059
Vows and Oaths
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ اللَّيْثِيِّ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ خَرَجْتُ مَعَ جَدَّةٍ لِي عَلَيْهَا مَشْىٌ إِلَى بَيْتِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِبَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ عَجَزَتْ فَأَرْسَلَتْ مَوْلًى لَهَا يَسْأَلُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ فَخَرَجْتُ مَعَهُ فَسَأَلَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ مُرْهَا فَلْتَرْكَبْ ثُمَّ لْتَمْشِي مِنْ حَيْثُ عَجَزَتْ . قَالَ يَحْيَى وَسَمِعْتُ مَالِكًا يَقُولُ وَنَرَى عَلَيْهَا مَعَ ذَلِكَ الْهَدْىَ .
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَأَبَا، سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ كَانَا يَقُولاَنِ مِثْلَ قَوْلِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ .
Yahya related to me from Malik that Urwa ibn Udhayna al-Laythi
said, "I went out with my grandmother who had vowed to walk to the
House of Allah. When we had gone part of the way, she could not go on.
I sent one of her mawlas to question Abdullah ibn Umar and I went with
him. He asked Abdullah ibn Umar, and Abdullah ibn Umar said to him,
'Take her and let her ride, and when she has the strength let her ride
back, and start to walk from the place from which she was unable to go
on.'~
Yahya said that he had heard Malik say, "I think that
she must sacrifice an animal."
Yahya related to me from Malik
that he had heard that Said ibn al-Musayyab and Abu Salama ibn Abd ar-
Rahman said the same as Abdullah ibn Umar.
