وَ فِي حَدِيثٍ آخَرَ: "إِنَّمَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ لِمُوسَى بْنِ عِمْرَانَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لِأَنَّهُ عَلِمَ مِنْ طَرِيقِ اَلْوَحْيِ هَلْ يَمُوتُ قَبْلَ اَلْوَفَاءِ أَمْ لاَ فَوَفَى بِأَتَمِّ اَلْأَجَلَيْنِ".
In another narration, it is reported: "This (form of marriage) was only allowed for Musa ibn Imran عليه السلام because he knew through divine revelation whether he would complete the specified term or not, and he fulfilled it by completing the longer of the two terms."
