[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no marriage except with a guardian." Then Abu Dawood (may Allah have mercy on him) said, in some copies of the book of Sunan, that it is Yunus ibn Abi Kathir, as narrated from Abu Dawood.  

البيهقي:١٣٦٢٧أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ ثنا أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ الْحَدَّادُ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ وَإِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ فِي بَعْضِ النُّسَخِ مِنْ كِتَابِ السُّنَنِ هُوَ يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ كَذَا حُكِيَ عَنْ أَبِي دَاوُدَ
