Who dig a pit for others
Two women arrived at the court of Qazi Ibn Abi Laila, a well-known judge of their time.
The judge asked
Which of the two do you want to talk about first?
The older woman said to the other, "Put your case before the judge."
She said, "Qazi, this is my paternal uncle. I call her my mother because she raised me after my father's death until I became young."
The judge asked after that?
She said, "Then my cousin sent me an engagement message. He married me to her. Many years have passed since my marriage. My married life was going well. One day, my uncle came to my house and asked my husband to marry his daughter." I offered a second marriage with the condition that the first wife (ie I) hand over the matter to my aunt. My husband accepted the condition in the marriage cycle with a virgin girl. My husband got married for the second time on the honeymoon. She came to me and said to me: I have married my daughter to your husband. Your husband has left your case in my hands. I will divorce you while advocating for your husband.
Judge, I am divorced.
Some time later, my uncle's husband arrived tired from the journey. He was a poet and a beautician. I sat down in front of him and asked him, "Will you marry me?" His happiness was gone. He immediately said yes. I made a condition in front of him that you hand over the case of your first wife (ie my aunt) to me. This is what he did. I exercised my right to advocate. Divorced and married to her aunt's ex-husband.
Qazi surprised again?
She said that Qazi Sahib's story is not over yet.
Some time later, my poet husband passed away. My paternal uncle came to me to ask for an inheritance. I told him that my husband had divorced you in his life. Now you have no share in the inheritance. The 'iddah has also passed. One day my aunt came to my house with her daughter and son-in-law (my ex-husband) and made my ex-husband a mediator in the inheritance dispute. She saw me many years later. The man never forgets his first love. So her first love with me was ignited. I asked her, "Will you marry me again?"
He said yes
I bet they would hand over the case of my first wife (my cousin's daughter) to me, and she did.
I married my ex-husband and divorced his wife while advocating for her husband.
Qazi Ibn Abi Laila sat down holding his head and then asked:
What is the problem now in this case?
My aunt said:
Qazi Sahib, isn't it haraam that this girl of both me and my daughter has got divorced and then my husband and my daughter's husband also took her away.
Qazi Ibn Abi Laila said:
I did not find anything haraam in this case. Divorce is also permissible, advocacy is also permissible. After divorce, the wife can go back to her ex-husband, provided that in the meantime she marries someone else and divorces or her husband dies. The same thing has happened in the story.
After that the Qazi narrated this incident to Khalifa Mansoor. Khalifa laughed and said that whoever digs a pit for his brother will fall into this pit himself. He grew up and fell into the deep sea instead of the pit.
