٦٦۔ كِتَابُ الشَّهَادَاتِ
Messenger of Allah ﷺ married me when I was six years old, and I was admitted to his house at the age of nine. She further said: We went to Medina and I had an attack of fever for a month, and my hair had come down to the earlobes. Umm Ruman (my mother) came to me and I was at that time on a swing along with my playmates. She called me loudly and I went to her and I did not know what she had wanted of me. She took hold of my hand and took me to the door, and I was saying: Ha, ha (as if I was gasping), until the agitation of my heart was over. She took me to a house, where had gathered the women of the Ansar. They all blessed me and wished me good luck and said: May you have share in good. She (my mother) entrusted me to them. They washed my head and embellished me and nothing frightened me. Messenger of Allah (, may peace be upon him) came there in the morning, and I was entrusted to him. (Using translation from Muslim 1422a)
تَزَوَّجَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِسِتِّ سِنِينَ وَبَنَى بِي وَأَنَا ابْنَةُ تِسْعِ سِنِينَ قَالَتْ فَقَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَوُعِكْتُ شَهْرًا فَوَافَى شَعْرِي جُمَيْمَةً فَأَتَتْنِي أُمُّ رُومَانَ وَأَنَا عَلَى أُرْجُوحَةٍ وَمَعِي صَوَاحِبِي فَصَرَخَتْ بِي فَأَتَيْتُهَا وَمَا أَدْرِي مَا يُرَادُ بِي فَأَخَذَتْ بِيَدِي فَأَوْقَفَتْنِي عَلَى الْبَابِ فَقُلْتُ هَذِهِ هَذِهِ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ نَفَسِي فَأَدْخَلَتْنِي بَيْتًا فَإِذَا نِسْوَةٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقُلْنَ عَلَى الْخَيْرِ وَالْبَرَكَةِ وعَلَى خَيْرِ طَائِرٍ فَأَسْلَمَتْنِي إِلَيْهِنَّ فَغَسَلْنَ رَأْسِي وَأَصْلَحْنَنِي فَلَمْ يَرُعْنِي إِلَّا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَسْلَمْنَنِي إِلَيْهِ
[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ married me when I was six years old. When I arrived in Medina, we stayed in the district of Bani al-Harith bin Khazraj. My mother brought me to the Prophet ﷺ , and she was holding me by the hand until we reached the door. I was crying, so she wiped my face with water and left me. Then she brought me into the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and inside the house there were men and women. She said, 'These are your family.' Allah blessed you in them, and He blessed them in you.' The men and women stood up and left, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ built with me a house."
ؓ تَزَوَّجَنِي يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لِسِتِّ سِنِينَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ نَزَلْنَا السُّنْحَ فِي بَنِي الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ قَالَتْ فَإِنِّي لَأَرْجِحُ بَيْنَ عِذْقَيْنِ وَأَنَا ابْنَةُ تِسْعٍ إِذْ جَاءَتْ أُمِّي فَأَنْزَلَتْنِي ثُمَّ مَشَتْ بِي حَتَّى انْتَهَتْ بِي إِلَى الْبَابِ وَأَنَا أُنْهِجُ فَمَسَحَتْ وَجْهِي بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ وَفَرَقَتْ جُمَيْمَةً كَانَتْ لِي وَدَخَلَتْ بِي عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَفِي الْبَيْتِ رِجَالٌ وَنِسَاءٌ فَقَالَتْ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُكَ فَبَارَكَ اللهُ لَكَ فِيهِمْ وَبَارَكْ لَهُمْ فِيكَ وَقَامَ الرِّجَالُ وَالنِّسَاءُ وَخَرَجُوا وَبَنَى بِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered the cutting off of swings, and it was narrated from another face, weakly connected, and it is not something. And Abu Burdah and Talhah ibn Musarrif disliked it.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَ بِقَطْعِ الْمَرَاجِيحِ هَذَا مُنْقَطِعٌ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ ضَعِيفٍ مَوْصُولًا وَلَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ وَكَانَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ وَطَلْحَةُ بْنُ مُصَرِّفٍ يَكْرَهَانِهَا
