Muwatta Malik #1318
Divorce
Yahya related to me from Malik from Damra ibn Said al-Mazini from
al-Hajjaj ibn Amr ibn Ghaziya that he was sitting with Zayd ibn Thabit
when Ibn Fahd came to him. He was from the Yemen. He said, "Abu Said!
I have slave-girls. None of the wives in my keep are more pleasing to
me than them, and not all of them please me so much that I want a
child by them, shall I then practise coitus interruptus?" Zayd ibn
Thabit said, "Give an opinion, Hajjaj!" "I said, 'May Allah forgive
you! We sit with you in order to learn from you!' He said, 'Give an
opinion! 'I said, 'She is your field, if you wish, water it, and if
you wish, leave it thirsty. I heard that from Zayd.' Zayd said, 'He
has spoken the truth.' "
