Hafiz Abdur Razzaq Abad bin Hamid and Ibne Mudhir have narrated through their chains of narrators from Dauli that:
A woman was brought to Umar, who had delivered a child after six months of pregnancy and Umar ordered her to be stoned to death. Her sister came to Ali Ibne Abi Talib and said:
“Umar wants to stone my sister to death. I adjure you by God that if there is any excuse for her, let me know.”
Ali said: “There is an excuse for her.” So the woman recited: “God is the greatest (Takbeer),” which Umar and those around him heard. Then she came to Umar and said: “Ali believes that I have an excuse for my sister.” Umar sent someone to Ali and asked what the excuse was. Ali replied: Allah Almighty says:
"And the mothers should suckle their children for two whole years…” (Surah Baqarah 2:233)
And also says:
“And the bearing of him and the weaning of him was thirty months.” (Surah Ahqaf 46:15)
And God says:
“And his weaning takes two years.” (Surah Luqman 31:14)
Now, even if we keep aside this report, it can be concluded that the period of pregnancy in the verse: َ
"And the bearing of him and the weaning of him was thirty months.” (Surah Ahqaf 46:15)
…is supposed to be six months, [because, the period of weaning is 24 months and subtracting this from thirty months, six months remain.
At this point Umar released that woman.
The narrator says: After that we came to know that the woman delivered another child after six months’ pregnancy
