Salam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu.

At famous shia forum I have seen thread titled “Hazrat Umar Raped A Slave Girl During Ramadan?”

They cited “Tabaqat” of ibn Sad, and even put scan page as a so called proof.

What can we say to this allegation?

First of all shias as usual lied, when they wrote that “Tabakat” of ibn Sad is “MOST AUTHENTIC SUNNI REFERENCE”.

Ibn Sad rahimuhullah narrated in this book a lot of stuff from his shaykh Muhammad ibn Umar al-Waqede. For example this athar was narrated from his way.

Here arabic text:

أخبرنا محمد بن عمر أخبرنا سيف بن سليمان عن قيس مولى بن علقمة عن داود بن أبي عاصم الثقفي عن سعيد بن المسيب قال خرج عمر بن الخطاب على أصحابه يوما فقال أفتوني في شيء صنعته اليوم فقالوا ما هو يا أمير المؤمنين قال مرت جارية لي فأعجبتني فوقعت عليها وأنا صائم قال فعظم عليه القوم وعلي ساكت فقال ما تقول يا بن أبي طالب فقال جئت حلالا ويوما مكان يوم فقال أنت خيرهم فتوى

Shaykh of ibn Sad in this athar, is Muhammad ibn Umar al-Waqede. He was known liar. Abu Hatim and Nasai accused him in fabrication. See his bio in “Mizanul itidal” (3/662/#7993).
