حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ - يَعْنِى ابْنَ أَبِى حَازِمٍ وَقَالَ قُتَيْبَةُ أَيْضًا حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ - يَعْنِى ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقَارِىَّ - كِلاَهُمَا عَنْ أَبِى حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِى سَلَمَةَ عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ أَنَّهُ طَلَّقَهَا زَوْجُهَا فِى عَهْدِ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- وَكَانَ أَنْفَقَ عَلَيْهَا نَفَقَةَ دُونٍ فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ ذَلِكَ قَالَتْ وَاللَّهِ لأُعْلِمَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَإِذَا كَانَ لِى نَفَقَةٌ أَخَذْتُ الَّذِى يُصْلِحُنِى وَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ لِى نَفَقَةٌ لَمْ آخُذْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا قَالَتْ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَقَالَ « لاَ نَفَقَةَ لَكِ وَلاَ سُكْنَى ».

It was narrated from Fatimah bint Qais that her husband divorced her at the time of the Prophet (s.a.w), and the maintenance he gave her was very little. When she saw that she said: "By Allah, I am going to tell the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w). If I am entitled to maintenance I will take what is enough for me, and if I am not entitled to maintenance I will not take anything from him." She said: "I told the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about that and he said: 'You are not entitled to maintenance or accommodation."'
