" We were young, so we said: Messenger of Allah, should we not have ourselves castrated? But he (the narrator) did not say; We were on an expedition."
كُنَّا وَنَحْنُ شَبَابٌ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلاَ نَسْتَخْصِي وَلَمْ يَقُلْ نَغْزُو
[Machine] We used to accompany the Prophet ﷺ in battles while we were young men and we did not have any wives. So, we asked, "O Messenger of Allah, should we not get ourselves castrated?" He forbade us from doing so.
كُنَّا نَغْزُو مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ شَبَابٌوَلَيْسَ لَنَا نِسَاءٌ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَا نَسْتَخْصِي؟ فَنَهَانَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ
