“No morning comes but two angels call out: ‘Woe to men from women, and woe to women from men.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3999)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا مِنْ صَبَاحٍ إِلَّا وَمُنَادِيَانِ يُنَادِيَانِ وَيْلٌ لِلرِّجَالِ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ وَوَيْلٌ لِلنِّسَاءِ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ
The Prophet ﷺ said: Islam does not allow for failure to perform the hajj. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1729)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا صَرُورَةَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ»
[Machine] "Marry, for the best of this nation, the nation of Muhammad ﷺ , are those who have the most women. And whatever is in your possession will be entrusted, as it will all come out before the Day of Resurrection."
«تَزَوَّجْ فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ أَكْثَرُهَا نِسَاءً وَمَهْمَا فِي صُلْبِكَ مُسْتَوْدَعٌ فَإِنَّهُ سَيَخْرُجُ قَبْلَ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ»
[Machine] Ibn Abbas said, "O Sa'id, marry, for indeed the best of this nation are the ones with the most women." Sahih.
لِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «يَا سَعِيدُ تَزَوَّجْ فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ أَكْثَرُهُمْ نِسَاءً» صحيح
"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Women and perfume have been made dear to me, but my comfort has been provided in prayer.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3940)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «حُبِّبَ إِلَيَّ النِّسَاءُ وَالطِّيبُ وَجُعِلَتْ قُرَّةُ عَيْنِي فِي الصَّلَاةِ»
the Messenger of Allah said: “There is nothing like marriage, for two who love one another.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1847)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَمْ يُرَ لِلْمُتَحَابِّينِ مِثْلُ التَّزَوُّجِ»
"There are three, all of whom have a promise of help from Allah: 'The Mujahid who strives in the cause of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime; the man who gets married, seeking to keep himself chaste; and the slave who has a contract of manumission and wants to buy his freedom.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3120)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ ثَلَاثَةٌ حَقٌّ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يُعِينَهُمُ الْمُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَالنَّاكِحُ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَسْتَعِفَّ وَالْمُكَاتَبُ يُرِيدُ الْأَدَاءَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Marry women, for they bring wealth to you."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «تَزَوَّجُوا النِّسَاءَ فَإِنَّهُنَّ يَأْتِينَكُمْ بِالْمَالِ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "A woman is married for one of three reasons: for her beauty, for her wealth, or for her character. So marry the one who is religiously committed; may your hands be covered in dust."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ تُنْكَحُ الْمَرْأَةُ عَلَى إِحْدَى خِصَالٍ ثَلَاثٍ تُنْكَحُ الْمَرْأَةُ عَلَى جَمَالِهَا وَتُنْكَحُ الْمَرْأَةُ عَلَى دِينِهَا وَخُلُقِهَا فَعَلَيْكَ بِذَاتِ الدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَمِينُكَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever Allah provides with a righteous wife, has been helped by Him in half of his religion, so let him fear Allah in the second half."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ امْرَأَةً صَالِحَةً فَقَدْ أَعَانَهُ عَلَى شَطْرِ دِينِهِ فَلْيَتَّقِ اللَّهَ فِي الشَّطْرِ الثَّانِي»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was asked, "Which of the women is the best?" He replied, "The best of women is the one who pleases her husband when he looks at her, obeys him when he commands her, and does not oppose him regarding herself and her wealth."
سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَيُّ النِّسَاءِ خَيْرٌ؟ فَقَالَ «خَيْرُ النِّسَاءِ مَنْ تَسَرُّ إِذَا نَظَرَ وَتُطِيعُ إِذَا أَمَرَ وَلَا تُخَالِفُهُ فِي نَفْسِهَا وَمَالِهَا»
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِثْلَهُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There are three aspects of happiness and three aspects of misery. From happiness is a woman whom you find pleasing and content with your presence, and she ensures your safety regarding yourself, wealth, and property. Also, a riding animal that is gentle and obedient, so it joins you with your companions. And a spacious house with many amenities. From misery is a woman whom you find disliking and she constantly speaks ill of you, and even if you are absent from her, she does not keep herself or your belongings safe. Also, a riding animal that produces hardships, for if you strike it, it exhausts you, and if you ride it, it does not keep up with your companions. And a narrow house with few amenities."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ثَلَاثٌ مِنَ السَّعَادَةِ وَثَلَاثٌ مِنَ الشَّقَاوَةِ فَمِنَ السَّعَادَةِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَرَاهَا تُعْجِبُكَ وَتَغِيبُ فَتَأْمَنُهَا عَلَى نَفْسِهَا وَمَالِكَ وَالدَّابَّةُ تَكُونُ وَطِيَّةً فَتُلْحِقُكَ بِأَصْحَابِكَ وَالدَّارُ تَكُونُ وَاسِعَةً كَثِيرَةَ الْمَرَافِقِ وَمِنَ الشَّقَاوَةِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَرَاهَا فَتَسُوءُكَ وَتَحْمِلُ لِسَانَهَا عَلَيْكَ وَإِنْ غِبْتَ عَنْهَا لَمْ تَأْمَنْهَا عَلَى نَفْسِهَا وَمَالِكَ وَالدَّابَّةُ تَكُونُ قَطُوفًا فَإِنْ ضَرَبْتَهَا أَتْعَبَتْكَ وَإِنْ تَرْكَبْهَا لَمْ تُلْحِقْكَ بِأَصْحَابِكَ وَالدَّارُ تَكُونُ ضَيِّقَةً قَلِيلَةَ الْمَرَافِقِ
It was narrated that Ma'qil bin Yasar said: "A man came to the Messenger of Allah and said: 'I have found a woman who is from a good family and of good status, but she does not bear children, should I marry her?' He told him not to. Then he came to him a second time and he told him not to (marry her). Then he came to him a third time and he told him not to (marry her), then he said: 'Marry the one who is fertile and loving, for I will boast of your great numbers.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3227)
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ امْرَأَةً ذَاتَ حَسَبٍ وَمَنْصِبٍ وَمَالٍ إِلَّا أَنَّهَا لَا تَلِدُ أَفَأَتَزَوَّجُهَا؟ فَنَهَاهُ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الثَّانِيَةَ فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَنَهَاهُ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «تَزَوَّجُوا الْوَدُودَ الْوَلُودَ فَإِنِّي مُكَاثِرٌ بِكُمُ الْأُمَمَ»
the Prophet said to him: 'Ali! Three are not to be delayed: Salat when its time comes, a funeral whet it (a prepared body) is present, and the (marriage of a) single woman when there is an equal for her." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 171)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ثَلَاثٌ يَا عَلِيُّ لَا تُؤَخِّرْهُنَّ الصَّلَاةُ إِذَا آنَتْ وَالْجَنَازَةُ إِذَا حَضَرَتْ وَالْأَيِّمُ إِذَا وَجَدَتْ كُفْؤًا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Choose the best partners for your offspring, and marry them to those who are suitable for them." This was followed by Ikrimah ibn Ibrahim quoting Hisham ibn Urwah.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «تُخَيِّرُوا لِنُطَفِكُمْ فَانْكِحُوا الْأَكْفَاءَ وَأَنْكِحُوا إِلَيْهِمْ» تَابَعَهُمْ عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ
[Machine] About Hisham ibn Urwah, he mentioned it with his chain of narration similarly.
عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ فَذَكَرَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ مِثْلَهُ
It was narrated from Ibn Buraidah that his father said: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'The nobility of the people of this world, that which they (always) go to, is wealth.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3225)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ أَحْسَابَ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا الَّذِي يَذْهَبُونَ إِلَيْهِ هَذَا الْمَالُ»
“Being honorable is wealth and noble character is piety.’ (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4219)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الْحَسَبُ الْمَالُ وَالْكَرَمُ التَّقْوَى»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The nobility of a believer lies in his religion, his modesty lies in his intellect, and his value lies in his character."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كَرَمُ الْمُؤْمِنِ دِينُهُ وَمُرُوءَتُهُ عَقْلُهُ وَحَسَبُهُ خُلُقُهُ»
A’ishah wife of the Prophet ﷺ and Umm Salamah said “Abu Hudaifah bin ‘Utbah bin Rabi’ah bin ‘Abd Shams adopted Salim as his son and married him to his niece Hind, daughter of Al Walid bin ‘Utbah bin Rabi’ah. He (Salim) was the freed slave of a woman from the Ansar (the Helpers) as the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ adopted Zaid as his son. In pre Islamic days when anyone adopted a man as his son, the people called him by his name and he was given a share from his inheritance. Allaah, the Exalted, revealed about this matter “Call them by (the name of) their fathers, that is juster in the sight of Allaah. And if ye know not their fathers, then (they are) your brethren in the faith and your clients. They were then called by their names of their fathers. A man, whose father was not known, remained under the protection of someone and considered brother in faith. Sahlah daughter of Suhail bin Amr Al Quraishi then came and said Apostle of Allaah ﷺ, we used to consider Salim(our) son. He dwelled with me and Abu Hudhaifah in the same house, and he saw me in the short clothes, but Allaah the Exalted, has revealed about them what you know, then what is your opinion about him? The Prophet ﷺ said give him your breast feed. She gave him five breast feeds. He then became like her foster son. Hence, A’ishah(may Allaah be pleased with her) used to ask the daughters of her sisters and the daughters of her brethren to give him breast feed five times, whom A’ishah wanted to see and who wanted to visit her. Though he might be of age; he then visited her. But Umm Salamah and all other wives of the Prophet ﷺ refused to allow anyone to visit them on the basis of such breast feeding unless one was given breast feed during infancy. They told A’ishah by Allaah we do not know whether that was a special concession granted by the Prophet ﷺ to Salim exclusive of the people. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2061)
أَنَّ أَبَا حُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَبَنَّى سَالِمًا وَأَنْكَحَهُ بِنْتَ أَخِيهِ هِنْدَ ابْنَةَ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَهُوَ مَوْلًى لِامْرَأَةٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَتَبَنَّاهُ كَمَا تَبَنَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَيْدًا وَكَانَ مَنْ تَبَنَّى رَجُلًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ دَعَاهُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ وَوَرِثَ مِنْ مِيرَاثِهِ حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِي ذَلِكَ {ادْعُوهُمْ لِآبَائِهِمْ هُوَ أَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَعْلَمُوا آبَاءَهُمْ فَإِخْوَانُكُمْ فِي الدِّينِ وَمَوَالِيكُمْ} [الأحزاب 5] فَرَدُّوهُمْ إِلَى آبَائِهِمْ فَمَنْ لَمْ يُعْلَمْ لَهُ أَبٌ كَانَ مَوْلَاهُ أَوْ أَخَاهُ فِي الدِّينِ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَإِنَّ سَهْلَةَ بِنْتَ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْقُرَشِيِّ ثُمَّ الْعَامِرِيِّ وَكَانَتْ تَحْتَ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ جَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَرَى سَالِمًا وَلَدًا وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ آوَاهُ فَكَانَ يَأْوِي مَعَهُ وَمَعَ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ فِي بَيْتٍ وَاحِدٍ وَيَرَانِي وَأَنَا فَضْلٌ وَقَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِمْ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ فَمَا تَرَى فِي شَأْنِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَرْضِعِيهِ» فَأَرْضَعَتْهُ خَمْسَ رَضَعَاتٍ فَحُرِّمَ بِهِنَّ وَكَانَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ وَلَدِهَا مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Banu Bayada, marry Abu Hind and marry to him." He said, and he was a barber.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «يَا بَنِي بَيَاضَةَ أَنْكِحُوا أَبَا هِنْدٍ وَأَنْكِحُوا إِلَيْهِ» قَالَ وَكَانَ حَجَّامًا
The Prophet ﷺ said: If anyone loves for Allah's sake, hates for Allah's sake, gives for Allah's sake and withholds for Allah's sake, he will have perfect faith. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4681)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَعْطَى لِلَّهِ وَمَنَعَ لِلَّهِ وَأَحَبَّ لِلَّهِ وَأَبْغَضَ لِلَّهِ وَأَنْكَحَ لِلَّهِ فَقَدِ اسْتَكْمَلَ الْإِيمَانَ»
that the Messenger of Allah said: "If there comes to you one with whose character and religious commitment you are pleased, then marry (your daughter or female relative under your care) to him, for if you do not do that there will be Fitnah in the land and widespread corruption.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1967)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَتَاكُمْ مَنْ تَرْضَوْنَ خُلُقَهُ وَدِينَهُ فَأَنْكِحُوهُ أَلَّا تَفْعَلُوا تَكُنْ فِتْنَةٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَفَسَادٌ عَرِيضٌ»
The Prophet ﷺ said: When one of you asked a woman in marriage, if he is able to look at what will induce him to marry her, he should do so. He (Jabir) said: I asked a girl in marriage, I used to look at her secretly, until I looked at what induced me to marry her. I, therefore, married her. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2082)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا خَطَبَ أَحَدُكُمُ امْرَأَةً فَإِنِ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى بَعْضِ مَا يَدْعُوهُ إِلَى نِكَاحِهَا فَلْيَفْعَلْ» فَخَطَبْتُ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ فَكُنْتُ أَتَخَبَّأُ لَهَا فِي أُصُولِ النَّخْلِ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ مِنْهَا مَا دَعَانِي إِلَى نِكَاحِهَا فَتَزَوَّجْتُهَا
[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Go and look at it, as it is more deserving to be preserved between you.' He went and looked at it and remembered the agreement between them."
رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا فَإِنَّهُ أَحْرَى أَنْ يُؤْدَمَ بَيْنَكُمَا» قَالَ فَذَهَبَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا فَذَكَرَ مِنْ مُوَافَقَتِهَا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Keep the sermon secret, then perform ablution and complete it perfectly. Then, offer the prayer that Allah the Almighty has prescribed for you. Afterwards, praise and glorify your Lord. Then say, 'O Allah, You have the power and I do not have it, You know and I do not know, and You are the Knower of the unseen. So if You see, in the case of so-and-so (mention the name of the person), better for me in my religion, worldly life, and hereafter, then decree it for me. But if You know that it is not good for me in my religion, worldly life, and hereafter, then keep it away from me and make me content with what You have decided for me."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ اكْتُمِ الْخُطْبَةَ ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأْ فَأَحْسِنِ وُضُوءَكَ ثُمَّ صَلِّ مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لَكَ ثُمَّ احْمَدْ رَبَّكَ وَمَجِّدْهُ ثُمَّ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ لِيَ فِي فُلَانَةٍ يُسَمِّيهَا بِاسْمِهَا خَيْرًا لِي فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي فَإِنْ كَانَ غَيْرُهَا خَيْرًا لِي فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي
[Machine] that the Prophet ﷺ wanted to marry a woman, so he sent a woman to look at her. He said, "Smell her perfume and look at her ankles." She came to them and they said, "Shall we offer you food, O mother of so-and-so?" She said, "I will not eat except from food that Fulanah brought." He said, "So I climbed up a shelf for them and she looked at her ankles, then she said, 'Rub oil on me, O my son.'" So he started rubbing oil on her while she smelled her perfume. He said, "Then she came and informed (the Prophet)."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً فَبَعَثَ امْرَأَةً لِتَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهَا فَقَالَ «شُمِّي عَوَارِضَهَا وَانْظُرِي إِلَى عُرْقُوبَيْهَا» قَالَ فَجَاءَتْ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالُوا أَلَا نُغَدِّيكِ يَا أُمَّ فُلَانٍ؟ فَقَالَتْ لَا آكُلُ إِلَّا مِنْ طَعَامٍ جَاءَتْ بِهِ فُلَانَةٌ قَالَ فَصَعِدْتُ فِي رَفٍّ لَهُمْ فَنَظَرَتْ إِلَى عُرْقُوبَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَتْ أَفْلِينِي يَا بُنَيَّةُ قَالَ فَجَعَلَتْ تُفْلِيهَا وَهِيَ تَشُمُّ عَوَارِضَهَا قَالَ فَجَاءَتْ فَأَخْبَرَتْ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, the fornicator only marries someone like him."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَلَا لَا يَنْكِحِ الزَّانِي الْمَجْلُودُ إِلَّا مِثْلَهُ»
[Machine] "I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, can we marry slaves?' He remained silent, and then I recited the verse from the Quran: 'The adulterer does not marry except an adulteress or polytheist, and none marries her except an adulterer or a polytheist. And that has been made unlawful to the believers' (Quran 24:3). So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ read it to me and said, 'Do not marry her.'"
فَجِئْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنْكِحُ عَنَاقَ؟ قَالَ فَسَكَتَ عَنِّي فَنَزَلَتْ {الزَّانِي لَا يَنْكِحُ إِلَّا زَانِيَةً أَوْ مُشْرِكَةً وَالزَّانِيَةُ لَا يَنْكِحُهَا إِلَّا زَانٍ أَوْ مُشْرِكٌ وَحُرِّمَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ} [النور 3] فَقَرَأَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ «لَا تَنْكِحْهَا»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ heard saying, "The orphan girl is consulted regarding herself. If she remains silent, it is her consent. And if she disagrees, no compulsion is on her."
سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «تُسْتَأْمَرُ الْيَتِيمَةُ فِي نَفْسِهَا فَإِنْ سَكَتَتْ فَهُوَ رِضَاهَا وَإِنْ كَرِهَتْ فَلَا كُرْهَ عَلَيْهَا»
[Machine] Her mother went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Indeed, my daughter hates him, I swear by Allah." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him to separate from her, so he separated from her and said, "Do not marry women until you have sought their consent. And when they remain silent, it is their consent." So Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah married her after him.
فَذَهَبَتْ أُمُّهَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ ابْنَتِي تَكْرَهُ وَاللَّهِ فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُفَارِقَهَا فَفَارَقَهَا وَقَالَ «لَا تَنْكِحُوا النِّسَاءَ حَتَّى تَسْتَأْمِرُوهُنَّ فَإِذَا سَكَتْنَ فَهُوَ إِذْنُهُنَّ» فَتَزَوَّجَهَا بَعْدَهُ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ
[Machine] Khawlah bint Hakim bin Umayyah bin Al-Aws ibn Muzh'un was the wife of Uthman bin Mazh'un and this was in Makkah. She asked the Messenger of Allah, "Why don't you get married?" He asked, "Who should I marry?" She said, "If you wish, a virgin, and if you wish, a widow." He asked, "Who is the virgin?" She said, "The daughter of your beloved creation, Aisha bint Abi Bakr." He asked, "Who is the widow?" She said, "Sauda bint Zam'ah bin Qays, who has believed in you and followed you in what you are upon." He said, "Go and mention both of them to me." So she went and entered the house of Abu Bakr and said, "O Abu Bakr, may Allah bestow upon you goodness and blessings. The Messenger of Allah has sent me to propose to Aisha on his behalf." He said, "Make the supplication for me to the Messenger of Allah." She made the supplication and he came and married her, and she was at that time six or seven years old.
خَوْلَةُ بِنْتُ حَكِيمِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ الْأَوْقَصِ امْرَأَةُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مَظْعُونٍ وَذَلِكَ بِمَكَّةَ أَيْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَا تَزَوَّجُ؟ قَالَ «وَمَنْ؟» قَالَتْ إِنْ شِئْتَ بِكْرًا وَإِنْ شِئْتَ ثَيِّبًا قَالَ «وَمَنِ الْبِكْرُ؟» قَالَتِ ابْنَةُ أَحَبِّ خَلْقِ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكَ عَائِشَةُ بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ قَالَ «وَمَنِ الثَّيِّبُ؟» قَالَتْ سَوْدَةُ بِنْتُ زَمْعَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَدْ آمَنَتْ بِكَ وَاتَّبَعَتْكَ عَلَى مَا أَنْتَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَاذْهَبِي فَاذْكُرِيهِمَا فَجَاءَتْ فَدَخَلَتْ بَيْتَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَاذَا أَدْخَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَالْبَرَكَةِ أَرْسَلَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَخْطُبُ عَلَيْهِ عَائِشَةَ قَالَ ادْعِي لِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَدَعَتْهُ فَجَاءَ فَأَنْكَحَهُ وَهِيَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ابْنَةُ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, "Indeed, she is young." So Ali proposed to her and married her.
رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّهَا صَغِيرَةٌ» فَخَطَبَهَا عَلِيٌّ فَزَوَّجَهَا
the Messenger of Allah said: “Any woman whose marriage is not arranged by her guardian, her marriage is invalid, her marriage is invalid, her marriage is invalid. If (the man) has had intercourse with her, then the Mahr belongs to her in return for his intimacy with her. And if there is any dispute then the ruler is the guardian of the one who does not have a guardian.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1879)
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «أَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ نُكِحَتْ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِ وَلِيِّهَا فَنِكَاحُهَا بَاطِلٌ فَنِكَاحُهَا بَاطِلٌ فَنِكَاحُهَا بَاطِلٌ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهَا فَلَهَا مَهْرُهَا بِمَا أَصَابَهَا وَإِنْ تَشَاجَرُوا فَالسُّلْطَانُ وَلِيُّ مَنْ لَا وَلِيَّ لَهُ»
The same as No. 290. from the Prophet. (Using translation from Bukhārī 1199b)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The marriage of a woman who marries without the consent of her guardians is void. (He said these words) three times. If there is cohabitation, she gets her dower for the intercourse her husband has had. If there is a dispute, the sultan (man in authority) is the guardian of one who has none. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2083)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تُنْكَحُ الْمَرْأَةُ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِ وَلِيِّهَا فَإِنْ نُكِحَتْ فَنِكَاحُهَا بَاطِلٌ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهَا فَلَهَا مَهْرُهَا بِمَا أَصَابَ مِنْهَا فَإِنِ اشْتَجَرُوا فَالسُّلْطَانُ وَلِيُّ مَنْ لَا وَلِيَّ لَهُ»
[Machine] "Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Any woman who is married without the permission of her guardian, her marriage is invalid, and she is entitled to her dowry as long as she has received any part of it. If they dispute, the ruler is the guardian of one who has no guardian.' This has been confirmed through narrations from reliable sources, as the narrators have been documented to have heard each other's narrations. These narrations cannot be criticized based on the narration of Ibn 'Ulayyah and his questioning by Ibn Jurayj, as a trustworthy narrator may forget a hadith after narrating it, and this has been done by more than one memorizer of hadith. Al-Husayn ibn al-Hasan ibn Ayyub informed us, Abu Hatim Muhammad ibn Idris al-Razi said, "I heard Ahmad ibn Hanbal say, and it was mentioned in his presence that Ibn 'Ulayyah mentions a hadith from Ibn Jurayj regarding 'There is no marriage except with a guardian.' Ibn Jurayj said, 'I met al-Zuhri and asked him about it, but he did not know it well, and he praised Sulayman ibn Musa.' Ahmad ibn Hanbal said, 'Indeed, Ibn Jurayj has written books, and this is not mentioned in his books, meaning the narration of Ibn 'Ulayyah from Ibn Jurayj.' I heard Abu al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub say, 'I heard al-Abbas ibn Muhammad al-Duri say, 'I heard Yahya ibn Ma'in say about the hadith 'There is no marriage except with a guardian,' which Ibn Jurayj narrates, so I said to him, 'Indeed, Ibn 'Ulayyah says this.' Ibn Jurayj said, 'I asked al-Zuhri about it, and he said, 'I do not remember it well.' Yahya ibn Ma'in said, 'No one says this except Ibn 'Ulayyah, and Ibn 'Ulayyah only presented the books of Ibn Jurayj to 'Abd al-Majid ibn 'Abd al-Aziz ibn Abi Rawwad, who corrected them for him, but he did not exert himself to preserve the hadith.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no marriage except with a guardian." Al-Nu'man ibn 'Abd al-Salam collected this hadith, connecting it between al-Thawri and Shu'bah in its chain of narration, and he narrated it from both of them. Al-Nu'man ibn 'Abd al-Salam is trusted and reliable. Many trustworthy narrators have also transmitted this hadith from al-Thawri and from Shu'bah, each one separately. They have transmitted it and all of this is found in the chapter that they heard from me and my companions. Therefore, it is sufficient without needing to repeat it. As for Isra'il ibn Yunus ibn Abu Ishaq, he is a trustworthy and reliable authority in the hadith of his grandfather, Abu Ishaq. He does not differ from him in connecting this hadith.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ» قَدْ جَمَعَ النُّعْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ بَيْنَ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَشُعْبَةَ فِي إِسْنَادِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَوَصَلَهُ عَنْهُمَا وَالنُّعْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ ثِقَةٌ مَأْمُونٌ «وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنَ الثِّقَاتِ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ عَلَى حِدَةٍ وَعَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَلَى حِدَةٍ فَوَصَلُوهُ وَكُلُّ ذَلِكَ مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الْبَابِ الَّذِي سَمِعَهُ مِنِّي أَصْحَابِي فَأَغْنَى ذَلِكَ عَنْ إِعَادَتِهِمَا فَأَمَّا إِسْرَائِيلُ بْنُ يُونُسَ بْنِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الثِّقَةُ الْحِجَّةُ فِي حَدِيثِ جَدِّهِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ فَلَمْ يَخْتَلِفِ عَنْهُ فِي وَصْلِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no marriage except with a guardian." All of these chains of narrations are authentic, and we have elevated them higher than those from Israel. The earlier Imams who narrated from Israel, such as Abdul Rahman ibn Mahdi, Waki, Yahya ibn Adam, Yahya ibn Zakaria ibn Abi Zaidah, and others, also considered this Hadith to be authentic. I heard Abu Nasr Ahmed ibn Sahl al-Faqih al-Bukhari saying, "I heard Salih ibn Muhammad ibn Habib al-Hafiz saying, 'I heard Ali ibn Abdullah al-Madinini saying, 'I heard Abdul Rahman ibn Mahdi saying, "Israel used to preserve the Hadith of Abu Ishaq as they preserved the praise." I heard Abu al-Hasan ibn Mansur saying, "I heard Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ishaq saying, 'I heard Abu Musa saying, 'Abdul Rahman ibn Mahdi used to confirm the Hadith of Israel from Abu Ishaq, meaning in regards to marriage without a guardian.' Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Shaybani narrated to me from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn al-Hasan from Hatim ibn Yunus al-Jurjani, who said, 'I asked Abu al-Walid al-Tayalisi what he says about marriage without a guardian.' He said, 'It is not permissible.' I asked, 'What is the proof for that?' He said, 'Qays ibn al-Rabi from Abu Ishaq from Abu Burdah from his father.' I said, 'But al-Thawri and Shu'bah also narrate it.' He replied, 'Indeed, Israel followed Qays in this matter.'" Muhammad ibn Salih ibn Hane' narrated to me from Muhammad ibn al-Mundhir ibn Sa'id from Ishaq ibn Ibrahim ibn Jabalah, who said, 'I heard Ali ibn al-Madinini saying, 'The Hadith of Israel is authentic in the statement 'There is no marriage except with a guardian.'" I heard Abu al-Hasan Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Anzi saying, 'I heard Uthman ibn Sa'id al-Darimi saying, 'I asked Yahya ibn Ma'in, 'Which do you prefer, Yunus ibn Abu Ishaq or his son Israil ibn Yunus?' He replied, 'They are both trustworthy.'" Authentic.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no marriage except with a guardian (wali)." This hadith has been narrated from Abu Ishaq after these two, Zuhayr bin Muawiyah al-Ju'fi and Abu Awana al-Wadah. And the people of narration have unanimously agreed on their precedence and accuracy. Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in his summarization.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ» وَقَدْ وَصَلَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ بَعْدَ هَؤُلَاءِ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْجُعْفِيُّ وَأَبُو عَوَانَةَ الْوَضَّاحُ «وَقَدْ أَجْمَعَ أَهْلُ النَّقْلِ عَلَى تَقَدُّمِهِمَا وَحِفْظِهِمَا» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no marriage without a guardian." Abu Sa'id Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Rumayh al-Nakha'i narrated to us, said Ibrahim ibn Nasr al-Kindi told me, he said: I heard Sa'id ibn Hashim al-Kaghazi saying: I heard Ahmad ibn Hanbal saying, "If you find a hadith from Zuhayr ibn Muawiyah, do not turn to anyone else, for he is one of the most reliable narrators."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ» حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ رُمَيْحٍ النَّخَعِيُّ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ الْكِنْدِيُّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ هَاشِمٍ الْكَاغَذِيَّ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ يَقُولُ «إِذَا وَجَدْتَ الْحَدِيثَ مِنْ وَجْهِ زُهَيْرِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ فَلَا تَعُدْ إِلَى غَيْرِهِ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ أَثْبَتِ النَّاسِ حَدِيثًا»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no marriage without a guardian." This was narrated by Abdullah ibn Mahdi, Wakee', and others from Abu Awana. This hadith has also been transmitted by a group of Muslim scholars, including Abu Hanifah Nu'man ibn Thabit, Raqabah ibn Masqalah Al-Abdi, Mutarrif ibn Tareef Al-Harithi, Abdul-Hameed ibn Al-Hasan Al-Hilali, Zakaria ibn Abi Zaidah, and others. And we have mentioned them in this chapter. It has also been transmitted by a group of scholars, other than Abu Ishaq, through Abu Burdah."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ» هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ وَوَكِيعٌ وَغَيْرُهُمَا عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ وَقَدْ وَصَلَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنْ أَئِمَّةِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ غَيْرُ مَنْ ذَكَرْنَاهُمْ مِنْهُمْ أَبُو حَنِيفَةَ النُّعْمَانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَرَقَبَةُ بْنُ مَصْقَلَةَ الْعَبْدِيُّ وَمُطَرِّفُ بْنُ طَرِيفٍ الْحَارِثِيُّ وَعَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْهِلَالِيُّ وَزَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ وَغَيْرُهُمْ «وَقَدْ ذَكَرْنَاهُمْ فِي الْبَابِ وَقَدْ وَصَلَهُ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ جَمَاعَةٌ غَيْرُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ»
the Messenger of Allah said: “There is no marriage except with a guardian.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1881)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيِّ»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no marriage except with a guardian (wali)." Ibn 'Asakir said, "Qabeesa bin 'Uqbah came to me and Ali bin Al-Madinii asked me about this Hadith, so I narrated it to him. Ali bin Al-Madinii said, 'We have settled the disagreement regarding Abu Ishaq.'"
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ» قَالَ ابْنُ عَسْكَرٍ فَقَالَ لِي قَبِيصَةُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ جَاءَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ فَسَأَلَنِي عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ بِهِ فَقَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ قَدِ اسْتَرَحْنَا مِنْ خِلَافِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no marriage without a guardian." We have supported this with authentic narrations and the statements of knowledgeable scholars, affirming the authenticity of the hadith of Abu Musa which contains sufficient evidence for those who reflect upon it.

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ» فَقَدِ اسْتَدْلَلْنَا بِالرِّوَايَاتِ الصَّحِيحَةِ وَبِأَقَاوِيلِ أَئِمَّةِ الْعِلْمِ عَلَى صِحَّةِ حَدِيثِ أَبِي مُوسَى بِمَا فِيهِ غَنِيَّةٌ لِمَنْ تَأَمَّلَهُ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِي ذَرٍّ الْغِفَارِيِّ وَالْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَجَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَعِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو وَالْمِسْوَرُ بْنُ مَخْرَمَةَ وَأَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ وَأَكْثَرُهَا صَحِيحَةٌ وَقَدْ صَحَّتِ الرِّوَايَاتُ فِيهِ عَنْ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَائِشَةَ وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ وَزَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ أَجْمَعِينَ
[Machine] I used to serve the Prophet ﷺ, then the Prophet ﷺ said to me, "O Rabi'ah! Why don't you get married?" I replied, "By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I don't want to get married. I don't have enough to provide for a wife, and I don't want anything to distract me from you." Then he turned away from me. After that, he asked me again, "O Rabi'ah! Why don't you get married?" I replied, "By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I don't want to get married. I don't have enough to provide for a wife, and I don't want anything to distract me from you." He turned away from me again. Then I revisited myself and said, "By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, you know what is best for me in this life and the hereafter." He said, "And I say to myself, if he asks me for the third time, I will say yes." Then he asked me for the third time, "O Rabi'ah! Why don't you get married?" I said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah, do whatever you think is best for me or whatever you like." He said, "Go to the family of so and so in such and such place among the Ansar. Tell them that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sends his greetings to you and orders you to marry Rabi'ah the daughter of so and so." So I went to them and conveyed the message. They said, "Welcome to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Messenger of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. By Allah, the Messenger of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ does not ask us for something without a reason." They honored me, married me to her, treated me kindly, and did not ask for any proof. I returned feeling sad, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked me, "What's wrong?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I went to a noble people, they honored and treated me kindly, and did not ask for any proof. But where will I get the dowry?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Buraidah Al-Aslami, "O Buraidah, collect the weight of a date seed in gold for him." So they collected the weight of a date seed in gold for me. Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "Take it to them and say, 'This is her dowry.'" So I took it to them and said, "This is her dowry." They said, "It's a lot, but we accept it." Then I asked, "Where should I stay?" They said, "O Buraidah, give him a sheep." So they gave me a fat sheep. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Go to Aishah and tell her to look at the dough in which the food is baked and send it to us." So I went to Aishah, told her about it, and she said, "Here it is, the dough in which the food is baked. By Allah, we don't have any other food in the morning." So I took it and the sheep to the Prophet ﷺ. They accepted the food and said, "You keep the sheep." Then some Muslims came, slaughtered, skinned, and cooked it. So we had bread and meat in the morning. I felt content and prayed for the blessings of the Muslims.

[Machine] About Al-Hasan's statement about Allah's statement, "So do not prevent them from marrying their [former] husbands" [Quran 2:232], Ma'qil ibn Yasar al-Muzani said that this verse was revealed about him. He said, "I married my sister to a man who divorced her. When her waiting period ended, he came to propose to her again. I said to him, 'I married her to you, provided for you, and honored you, and yet you divorced her. Now you come to propose to her? By Allah, she will never go back to you.' He said, 'He was a good man, and the woman wanted to return to him.' Allah then revealed this verse, and I said, 'Now, O Messenger of Allah, I will marry her to him.' Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ishaq said, 'In this hadith, there is clear evidence that Allah has given the authority of the marriage contract to the guardians, not the women, even if they are divorcees. There is no say for the women in the contract.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whichever woman is married by two guardians, then she belongs to the first one, and whichever two men have a transaction, then it belongs to the first one among them." Sa'id bin Abu 'Aruba and Sa'id bin Bashir Al-Dimashqi narrated this on the terms of Al-Bukhari.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ زَوَّجَهَا وَلِيَّانِ فَهِيَ لِلْأَوَّلِ وَأَيُّمَا رَجُلَيْنِ ابْتَاعَا بَيْعًا فَهُوَ لِلْأَوَّلِ مِنْهُمَا» تَابَعَهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ وَسَعِيدُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ عَنْ قَتَادَةَعلى شرط البخاري
The Prophet ﷺ said: Any woman who is married by two guardians (to two different men) belongs to the first woman who is married by two guardians (to two different men) belongs to the first of them and anything sold by a man to two persons belongs to the first of them. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2088)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ بَاعَ مِنْ رَجُلَيْنِ بَيْعًا فَهُوَ لِلْأَوَّلِ مِنْهُمَا وَأَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ زَوَّجَهَا وَلِيَّانِ فَهِيَ لِلْأَوَّلِ»
