How sound is the story of Jewish women conceiving children from their deceased husbands after a battle during the era of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, by Allah's command?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The mentioned story about the people of knowledge has not been reported, and we consider it fabricated. The most significant killing of Jews that occurred during the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was the killing of the fighters of Banu Qurayzah only, and not all their men were killed. It has not been reported that their women complained to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, or that he commanded them with what was mentioned; therefore, the narration is fabricated.
