وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ بِشْرٍ الأَنْصَارِىِّ. قَالَ فَرَدَّ الْحَدِيثَ حَتَّى رَدَّهُ إِلَى أَبِى سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِىِّ قَالَ ذُكِرَ الْعَزْلُ عِنْدَ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَقَالَ « وَمَا ذَاكُمْ ». قَالُوا الرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ لَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ تُرْضِعُ فَيُصِيبُ مِنْهَا وَيَكْرَهُ أَنْ تَحْمِلَ مِنْهُ وَالرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ لَهُ الأَمَةُ فَيُصِيبُ مِنْهَا وَيَكْرَهُ أَنْ تَحْمِلَ مِنْهُ. قَالَ « فَلاَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ لاَ تَفْعَلُوا ذَاكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ الْقَدَرُ ». قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ الْحَسَنَ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لَكَأَنَّ هَذَا زَجْرٌ.

Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri said: "Mention of 'Azl was made in the presence of the Prophet (s.a.w) and he said: 'Why do you do that?' They said: 'A man may have a wife who is breastfeeding and he has intercourse with her, but he does not want her to become pregnant. And a man may have a slave woman and he has intercourse with her, but he does not want her to become pregnant.' He said: 'It does not matter if you do not do it, for it is only the Divine Decree (that decides)."' Ibn 'Awn said: "I narrated this to Al-Hasan, and he said: 'By Allah, it is as if it is a rebuke."'
