21. Marriage (1/6)
٢١۔ كِتَابُ النِّكَاحِ ص ١
It was narrated that 'Ata' said: "We attended the funeral of Maimunah, the wife of the Prophet, with Ibn 'Abbas in Sarif. Ibn 'Abbas said: 'This is Maimunah; when you lift up her bier, do not rock it nor shake it. The Messenger of Allah had nine wives and he used to give a share of his time to eight of them and not to one.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3196)
حَضَرْنَا مَعَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ جِنَازَةَ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِسَرِفَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ هَذِهِ مَيْمُونَةُ إِذَا رَفَعْتُمْ جِنَازَتَهَا فَلَا تُزَعْزِعُوهَا وَلَا تُزَلْزِلُوهَا فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «كَانَ مَعَهُ تِسْعُ نِسْوَةٍ فَكَانَ يَقْسِمُ لِثَمَانٍ وَوَاحِدَةٌ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَقْسِمُ لَهَا»
The Prophet ﷺ used to visit all his wives in one night and he had nine wives at that time. (Using translation from Bukhārī 284)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «كَانَ يَطُوفُ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ فِي اللَّيْلَةِ الْوَاحِدَةِ وَلَهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ تِسْعُ نِسْوَةٍ»
I used to look down upon those ladies who had given themselves to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I used to say, "Can a lady give herself (to a man)?" But when Allah revealed: "You (O Muhammad) can postpone (the turn of) whom you will of them (your wives), and you may receive any of them whom you will; and there is no blame on you if you invite one whose turn you have set aside (temporarily).' (33.51) I said (to the Prophet), "I feel that your Lord hastens in fulfilling your wishes and desires." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4788)
كُنْتُ أَغَارُ عَلَى اللَّائِي وَهَبْنَ أَنْفُسَهُنَّ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَقُولُ أَوَ تَهَبُ الْمَرْأَةُ نَفْسَهَا؟ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ {تُرْجِي مَنْ تَشَاءُ مِنْهُنَّ وَتُؤْوِي إِلَيْكَ مَنْ تَشَاءُ} [الأحزاب 51] قُلْتُ وَاللهِ مَا أَرَى رَبَّكَ إِلَّا يُسَارِعُ لَكَ فِي هَوَاكَ
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: "When the Messenger of Allah died he had nine wives; he used to be intimate with all of them except one, who had given her day and night to 'Aishah." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3197)
«تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَعِنْدَهُ تِسْعُ نِسْوَةٍ يُصِيبُهُنَّ إِلَّا سَوْدَةَ فَإِنَّهَا وَهَبَتْ يَوْمَهَا وَلَيْلَتَهَا لِعَائِشَةَ»
It was narrated that Sahl bin Sa'd said: "I was among the people when a woman said: 'I offer myself (in marriage) to you, O Messenger of Allah, see what you think of me.' A man stood up and said: 'Marry me to her.' He said: 'Go and find (something), even if it is an iron ring.' So he went, but he could not find anything, not even an iron ring. So the Messenger of Allah said: 'Do you have (memorized) any surahs of the Qur'an?' He said: 'Yes.' So he married him to her on the basis of what he knew of surahs of the Qur'an." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3200)
قَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِنِّي قَدْ وَهَبْتُ نَفْسِي لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَرَ فِيهَا رَأْيَكَ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ زَوِّجْنِيهَا فَقَالَ «اذْهَبْ فَاطْلُبْ وَلَوْ خَاتَمًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ» فَذَهَبَ وَلَمْ يَجِئْ بِشَيْئٍ وَلَا بِخَاتَمٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَعَكَ مِنْ سُوَرِ الْقُرْآنِ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَزَوَّجَهُ بِمَا مَعَهُ مِنْ سُوَرِ الْقُرْآنِ»
21.2 [Machine] What Allah has obligated (upon) His Messenger ﷺ and made it easier (for) His creation, to increase him with it, if Allah wills, nearness to Him.
٢١۔٢ مَا افْتَرَضَ اللهُ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ وَخَفَّفَهُ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ لِيَزِيدَهُ بِهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ قُرْبَةً إِلَيْهِ
"When the Messenger of Allah was commanded to give his wives the choice, he started with me and said: 'I am going to say something to you and you do not have to rush (to make a decision) until you consult your parents.'" She said: "He knew that my parents would never tell me to leave him." She said: "Then he recited this Verse: 'O Prophet! Say to your wives: If you desire the life of this world, and its glitter, then come! I will make a provision for you and set you free in a handsome manner.' I said: 'Do I need to consult my parents concerning this? I desire Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, and His Messenger, and the home of the Hereafter.'" 'Aishah said: "Then the wives of the Prophet all did the same as I did, and that was not counted as a divorce, when the Messenger of Allah gave them the choice and they chose him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3439)
أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ لَمَّا أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِتَخْيِيرِ أَزْوَاجِهِ بَدَأَ بِي فَقَالَ «إِنِّي ذَاكِرٌ لَكِ أَمْرًا فَلَا عَلَيْكِ أَنْ لَا تَعْجَلِي حَتَّى تَسْتَأْمِرِي أَبَوَيْكِ» قَالَتْ قَدْ عَلِمَ أَنَّ أَبَوَيَّ لَمْ يَكُونَا لِيَأْمُرَانِّي بِفِرَاقِهِ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِأَزْوَاجِكَ إِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا فَتَعَالَيْنَ أُمَتِّعْكُنَّ وَأُسَرِّحْكُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلًا} [الأحزاب 28] فَقُلْتُ فِي أَيِّ هَذَا أَسْتَأْمِرُ أَبَوَيَّ فَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ثُمَّ فَعَلَ أَزْوَاجُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِثْلَ مَا فَعَلْتُ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ ذَلِكَ حِينَ قَالَهُ لَهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَاخْتَرْنَهُ طَلَاقًا مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُنَّ اخْتَرْنَهُ
It was narrated from 'Aishah, the wife of the Prophet, that the Messenger of Allah came to her when Allah commanded him to give his wives the choice. 'Aishah said: "The Messenger of Allah started with me and said: 'I am going to tell you something, but you do not have to rush until you consult your parents.'" She said: "He knew that my parents would not tell me to leave him." Then the Messenger of Allah said: 'O Prophet! Say to your wives: If you desire the life of this world, and its glitter, then come! I will make a provision for you and set you free in a handsome manner.' "I said: 'Do I need to consult my parents about this? I choose Allah and His Messenger, and the abode of the Hereafter.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3201)
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَهَا حِينَ أُمِرََ أَنْ يُخْبِرَ أَزْوَاجَهُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَبَدَأَ بِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي ذَاكِرٌ لَكِ أَمْرًا فَلا عَلَيْكِ أَنْ لا تَعْجَلِي حَتَّى تَسْتَأْمِرِي أَبَوَيْكِ قَالَتْ قَدْ عَلِمَ أَنَّ أَبَوَيَّ لَم يَأْمُرَانِّي بِفِرَاقِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ {يَأَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لأَزْوَاجِكَ إِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا} فَقُلْتُ فِي أَي هَذَا أَسْتَأْمِرُ أَبَوَيَّ فَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الآخِرَةَ [148] 5292 أَخْبَرَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا غُنْدَرٌ عَنْ شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الضُّحَى عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ «قَدْ خَيَّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نِسَاءَهُ فَكَانَ طَلَاقًا»
Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave us the option (to get divorce) and we chose him and he did not count it a divorce. (Using translation from Muslim 1477d)
«خَيَّرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَاخْتَرْنَاهُ فَلَمْ نَعُدَّهُ طَلَاقًا»
[Machine] Aisha said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not die until it was permissible for him to have relations with women." Abu Abdullah Al-Rahman told us that Ibn Juraij entered between Ata and Aisha, Ubaid bin Umayr."
عَائِشَةُ «مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى أُحِلَّ لَهُ النِّسَاءُ» قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَدْخَلَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ بَيْنَ عَطَاءٍ وَبَيْنَ عَائِشَةَ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ عُمَيْرٍ
It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "The Messenger of Allah did not die until Allah permitted him to marry whatever women he wanted." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3205)
«مَا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى أَحَلَّ اللهُ لَهُ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ مَا شَاءَ»
21.3 [Machine] The encouragement for marriage.
٢١۔٣ الْحَثُّ عَلَى النِّكَاحِ
It was narrated that 'Alqamah said: "I was walking with 'Abdullah in Mina and he was met by 'Uthman who stood with him and spoke with him. He said: 'O Abu Abdur-Rahman! Shall I not marry you to a young girl? Perhaps she will remind you of when you were younger?' 'Abdullah said: 'As you say that (it reminds me that) the Messenger of Allah said to us: O young men, whoever among you can afford it, let him get married.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3211)
«كُنْتُ أَمْشِي مَعَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بِمِنًى فَلَقِيَهُ عُثْمَانُ فَقَامَ مَعَهُ يُحَدِّثُهُ» فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَلَا أُزَوِّجُكَ جَارِيَةً شَابَّةً فَلَعَلَّهَا أَنْ تُذَكِّرَكَ بَعْضَ مَا مَضَى مِنْكَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ أَمَّا لَئِنْ قُلْتَ ذَاكَ لَقَدْ قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ»
It was narrated from 'Alqamah and Al-Aswad that 'Abdullah said: "The Messenger of Allah said to us: 'Whoever among you can afford it, let him get married, and whoever cannot then he should fast, for it will be a restraint (wija') for him.'" Abu Abdur-Rahman said: (The mention of) Al-Aswad in this hadith is not preserved. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3208)
قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَعَلَيْهِ بِالصَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ وِجَاءٌ» قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَسْوَدُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ غَيْرُ مَحْفُوظٍ
Ibn Masud met 'Uthman at 'Arafat and spoke to him in private. Uthman said to Ibn Masud: "Are you interested in a girl so that I marry her to you?" 'Abdullah called 'Alqamah and he told him that the Prophet said: 'Whoever among you can afford to get married, let him do so. Whoever cannot afford it, let him fast, for fasting will be a restraint (Wija) for him."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2240)
لِابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ هَلْ لَكَ فِي فَتَاةٍ أُزَوِّجُكَهَا فَدَعَا عَبْدُ اللهِ عَلْقَمَةَ فَحَدَّثَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ فَإِنَّهُ أَغَضُّ لِلْبَصَرِ وَأَحْصَنُ لِلْفَرْجِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَلْيَصُمْ فَإِنَّ الصَّوْمَ لَهُ وِجَاءٌ»
It was narrated that 'Abdullah said: "The Messenger of Allah said to us: 'O young men, whoever among you can afford it, let him get married, for it is more effective in lowering the gaze and guarding chastity, and whoever cannot then he should fast, for it will be a restraint (wija') for him.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3209)
قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ فَإِنَّهُ أَغَضُّ لِلْبَصَرِ وَأَحْصَنُ لِلْفَرْجِ وَمَنْ لَا فَلْيَصُمْ فَإِنَّ الصَّوْمَ لَهُ وِجَاءٌ»
It was narrated that 'Abdullah said: "The Messenger of Allah said to us: 'O young men, whoever among you can afford it, let him get married,'" and he quoted the same hadith. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3210)
قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ » وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ
21.4 [Machine] Prohibition of Tabbatul
٢١۔٤ النَّهْيُ عَنِ التَّبَتُّلِ
[Machine] It was narrated from the Prophet ﷺ that he prohibited "tabattul". Ash'ath ibn Abdul Malik contradicted him.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ «نَهَى عَنِ التَّبَتُّلِ» خَالَفَهُ أَشْعَثُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ
It was narrated from Samurah bin Jundab that the Prophet forbade celibacy. Abu Abdur-Rahman said: Qatadah is more reliable and better preserves narrations than Ash'ath but the hadith of Ash'ath (here) appears to be the correct one. Allah, Most High, knows best. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3214)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «نَهَى عَنِ التَّبَتُّلِ» قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَتَادَةُ أَثْبَتُ وَأَحْفَظُ مِنْ أَشْعَثَ وَحَدِيثُ أَشْعَثَ هَذَا أَشْبَهُ بِالصَّوَابِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ
Sa'd said: “The Messenger of Allah disapproved of Uthman bin Maz'un's desire to remain celibate; if he had given him permission, we would have gotten ourselves castrated.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1848)
«لَقَدْ رَدَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مَظْعُونٍ التَّبَتُّلَ وَلَوْ أَذِنَ لَهُ لَاخْتَصَيْنَا»
It was narrated from Anas that there was a group of the Companions of the Prophet, one of whom said: "I will not marry women." Another said: "I will not eat meat." Another said: "I will not sleep on a bed." Another said: "I will fast and not break my fast." News of that reached the Messenger of Allah and he praised Allah then said: "What is the matter with people who say such and such? But I pray and I sleep, I fast and I break my fast, and I marry women. Whoever turns away from my Sunnah is not of me." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3217)
أَنَّ نَفَرًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لَا أَتَزَوَّجُ النِّسَاءَ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لَا آكُلُ اللَّحْمَ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لَا أَنَامُ عَلَى فِرَاشٍ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَصُومُ فَلَا أُفْطِرُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ يَقُولُونَ كَذَا وَكَذَا لَكِنِّي أُصَلِّي وَأَنَامُ وَأَصُومُ وَأُفْطِرُ وَأَتَزَوَّجُ النِّسَاءَ فَمَنْ رَغِبَ عَنْ سُنَّتِي فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي»
It was narrated from Sa'd bin Hisham that he came to the Mother of the Believers, 'Aishah. He said: "I want to ask you about celibacy, what do you think about it?" She said: "Do not do that; have you not heard that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, says: 'And indeed We sent Messengers before you, and made for them wives and offspring'? So do not be celibate." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3216)
سَمِعْتَ اللهَ يَقُولُ {وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلًا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُمْ أَزْوَاجًا وَذُرِّيَّةً} [الرعد 38]؟ فَلَا تَتَبَتَّلْ
21.5 [Machine] The following heading translates to: "The support of a married individual who seeks chastity.
٢١۔٥ عَوْنُ النَّاكِحِ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ الْعَفَافَ
"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)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «ثَلَاثَةٌ حَقٌّ عَلَى اللهِ ﷻ عَوْنُهُمْ الْمُكَاتَبُ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ الْأَدَاءَ وَالنَّاكِحُ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ الْعَفَافَ وَالْمُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ»
21.6 [Machine] Encouragement for Marrying Virgins
٢١۔٦ الْحَثُّ عَلَى نِكَاحِ الْأَبْكَارِ
It was narrated that Jabir said: "I got married then I came to the Prophet and he said: 'Have you got married, O Jabir?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'To a virgin or to a previously married woman?' I said: 'To a previously married woman.' He said: 'Why not a virgin, so you could play with her and she could play with you?'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3219)
تَزَوَّجْتُ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «أَوَ تَزَوَّجْتَ يَا جَابِرُ؟» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «بِكْرٌ أَمْ ثَيِّبٌ؟» فَقُلْتُ لَا بَلْ ثَيِّبٌ قَالَ «فَهَلَّا بِكْرًا تُلَاعِبُهَا وَتُلَاعِبُكَ»
It was narrated that Jabir said: "The Messenger of Allah met me and said: 'O Jabir, have you got married to a woman since I last saw you?' I said: 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said: 'To a virgin or to a previously-married woman?' I said: 'To a previously-married woman.' He said: 'Why not a virgin, so she could play with you?'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3220)
لَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «يَا جَابِرُ هَلْ أَصَبْتَ امْرَأَةً بَعْدِي؟» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «أَبِكْرٌ أَمْ أَيِّمٌ؟» قُلْتُ أَيِّمٌ قَالَ «فَهَلَّا بِكْرًا تُلَاعِبُكَ؟»
21.7 [Machine] Marriage of a woman to a man of the same age
٢١۔٧ تَزَوُّجِ الْمَرْأَةِ مِثْلَهَا مِنَ الرِّجَالِ فِي السِّنِّ
[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, she is young." So Ali proposed to her and married her from him.
رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّهَا صَغِيرَةٌ» فَخَطَبَهَا عَلِيٌّ فَزَوَّجَهَا مِنْهُ
21.8 [Machine] The license in the marriage of the Arab slave.
٢١۔٨ الرُّخْصَةُ فِي تَزْوِيجِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ الْمَوْلَى
[Machine] Abdul Rahman ibn Auf spoke to me about a group of the companions of Muhammad, ﷺ . Then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , gave me a sermon about his beloved companion, Usama ibn Zaid. I had heard that the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "Whoever loves me should also love Usama." So when the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , spoke to me, I said, "My affair is in your hands, so marry me to whomever you wish."
خَطَبَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ وَخَطَبَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى مَوْلَاهُ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَقَدْ كُنْتُ حُدِّثْتُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَحَبَّنِي فَلْيُحِبَّ أُسَامَةَ» فَلَمَّا كَلَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْتُ أَمْرِي بِيَدِكَ فَأَنْكِحْنِي مَنْ شِئْتَ
Abu Hudhaifa bin ʿUtba bin Rabiʿa bin ʿAbdi Shams who had witnessed the battle of Badr along with the Prophet ﷺ adopted Salim as his son, to whom he married his niece, Hind bint Al-Walid bin ʿUtba bin Rabiʿa; and Salim was the freed slave of an Ansar woman, just as the Prophet ﷺ had adopted Zaid as his son. It was the custom in the Pre-lslamic Period that if somebody adopted a boy, the people would call him the son of the adoptive father and he would be the latter's heir. But when Allah revealed the Divine Verses: 'Call them by (the names of) their fathers . . . your freed-slaves,' (33.5) the adopted persons were called by their fathers' names. The one whose father was not known, would be regarded as a Maula and your brother in religion. Later on Sahla bint Suhail bin ʿAmr Al-Quraishi Al-ʿAmiri-- and she was the wife of Abu- Hudhaifa bin ʿUtba--came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! We used to consider Salim as our (adopted) son, and now Allah has revealed what you know (regarding adopted sons)." The sub-narrator then mentioned the rest of the narration. (Using translation from Bukhārī 5088)
أَنَّ أَبَا حُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تَبَنَّى سَالِمًا وَأَنْكَحَهُ ابْنَةَ أَخِيهِ وَهِيَ هِنْدُ بِنْتُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ وَهُوَ مَوْلًى لِامْرَأَةٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ كَمَا تَبَنَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ زَيْدًا وَكَانَ مَنْ تَبَنَّى رَجُلًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ دَعَاهُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ وَوَرِثَ مِيرَاثَهُ حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللهُ فِي ذَلِكَ {ادْعُوهُمْ لِآبَائِهِمْ هُوَ أَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَعْلَمُوا آبَاءَهُمْ فَإِخْوَانُكُمْ فِي الدِّينِ وَمَوَالِيكُمْ} [الأحزاب 5] فَرُدُّوا إِلَى آبَائِهِمْ فَمَنْ لَمْ يُعْلَمْ لَهُ أَبٌ كَانَ مَوْلًى وَأَخًا فِي الدِّينِ
It was narrated from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah bin 'Utbah that during the reign of Marwan, 'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin 'Uthman, who was a young man, issued a final divorce to the daughter of Sa'eed bin Zaid, whose mother was Bint Qais. Her maternal aunt, Fatimah bint Qais, sent word to her telling her to move from the house of 'Abdullah bin 'Amr. Marwan heard of that and he sent word to the daughter of Sa'eed, telling her to go back to her home, and asking her why she had moved from her home before her 'Iddah was over? She sent word to him telling him that her maternal aunt had told her to do that. Fatimah bint Qais said that she had been married to Abu 'Amr bin Hafs, and when the Messenger of Allah appointed 'Ali bin Abi Talib as governor of Yemen, he went out with him and sent word to her that she was divorced with the third Talaq. He told Al-Harith bin Hisham and 'Ayyash bin Abi Rai'ah to spend on her. She sent word to Al-Harith and 'Ayyash asking them what her husband had told them to spend on her, and they said: 'By Allah, she has no right to any maintenance from us, unless she is pregnant, and she cannot come into our home without our permission.' She said that she came to the Messenger of Allah and told him about that, and he stated that they were correct. Fatimah said: 'Where should I move to, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'Move to the home of Ibn Umm Maktum, the blind man whom Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, named in His Book.' Fatimah said: 'So I observed my 'Iddah there. He was a man who has lost his sight, so I used to take off my garments in his house, until the Messenger of Allah married me to Usamah bin Zaid.' Marwan criticized her for that and said: 'I have never heard this Hadith from anyone before you. I will continue to follow the ruling that the people have been following.'"

It was narrated from 'Aishah that Abu Hudhaifah bin 'Utbah bin Rabi'ah bin 'Abd Shams --who was one of those who had been present at Badr with the Messenger of Allah-- adopted Salim and married him to his brother's daughter, Hind bint Al-Walid bin 'Utbah bin Rabi'ah bin 'Abd Shams, and he was a freed slave of an Ansari woman --as the Messenger of Allah had adopted Zaid. During the Jahiliyyah, if a man adopted someone, the people would call him his son, and he would inherit from his legacy, until Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed about that: 'Call them by (the names of) their fathers, that is more just with Allah. But if you know not their fathers' (names, call them) your brothers in Faith and Mawalikum (your freed slaves)." Then if a person's father's name was not known, he would be their freed slave and brother in faith. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3223)

Abu Hudhaifah bin 'Utbah married Salim to his brother's daughter Hind bint Al-Walid bin 'Utbah bin Rabi'ah. Hind bint Al-Walid bin 'Utbah was one of the first Muhajir women, and at that time she was one of the best single women of the Quraish. When Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed the following concerning Zaid bin Harithah: "Call them by (the names of) their fathers, that is more just with Allah. But if you know not their fathers' (names, call them) your brothers in Faith and Mawalikum (your freed slaves).' Each of them went back to being called after his father, and if a person's father was unknown, he was named after his former masters. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3224)

He said: 'A virgin or a previously-married woman?' I said: 'A previously-married woman.' He said: 'Why not a virgin who would play with you?' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have sisters, and I did not want her to come between them and I.' He said: 'That's better then. A woman may be married for her religious commitment, her wealth or her beauty. You should choose the one who is religiously committed, may your hands be rubbed with dust (may you prosper).'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3226)
أَنَّهُ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَقِيَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «أَتَزَوَّجْتَ يَا جَابِرُ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «بِكْرًا أَمْ ثَيِّبًا؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلْ ثَيِّبًا قَالَ «فَهَلَّا بِكْرًا تُلَاعِبُكَ؟» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كُنَّ لِي أَخَوَاتٌ فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُنَّ قَالَ فَذَاكَ إِذًا إِنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ تُنْكَحُ عَلَى دِينِهَا وَمَالِهَا وَجَمَالِهَا فَعَلَيْكَ بِذَاتِ الدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ

There was a prostitute in Makkah who was called 'Anaq, and she was his friend. She came out and saw my shadow on the wall, and said: 'Who is this? Marthad? Welcome, O Marthad, come tonight and stay at our place.' I said: 'O 'Anaq, the Messenger of Allah has forbidden adultery.' She said: 'O people of the tents, this porcupine is the one who is taking your prisoners from Makkah to Al-Madinah!' I headed toward (the mountain of) Al-Khandamah, and eight men came after me. They came and stood over my head, and they urinated, and their urine reached me, but Allah caused them not to see me. Then I went to my companion (the prisoner) and brought him to Al-Arak, where I undid his fetters. Then I came to the Messenger of Allah and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, shall I marry 'Anaq?' He remained silent and did not answer me, then the following was revealed: 'And the adulteress-fornicator, none marries her except an adulterer-fornicator or an idolater.' He called me and recited them to me and said: 'Do not marry her.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3228)

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 النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ امْرَأَةً ذَاتَ حَسَبٍ وَمَنْصِبٍ إِلَّا أَنَّهَا لَا تَلِدُ أَفَأَتَزَوَّجُهَا؟ فَنَهَاهُ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الثَّانِيَةَ فَنَهَاهُ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الثَّالِثَةَ فَقَالَ «تَزَوَّجُوا الْوَلُودَ الْوَدُودَ فَإِنِّي مُكَاثِرٌ بِكُمْ»

And the name of Abu Hazim Al-Madinah is Salama bin Dinah, and he is the father of Abd al-Aziz bin Abu Hazim.

[Machine] A man from the Ansar came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "I have married a woman." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Did you not look at her? Verily, there is something in the eyes of the Ansar." Ali ibn Hashim ibn Al-Barid disagreed with him.

[Machine] "So I went to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned it to him. He said, 'You have no house or provision, go and be with Ibn Umm Maktum until I give you permission.' She said, 'So when I went to Ibn Umm Maktum, I gave him permission.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'And who proposed to you?' I said, 'Muawiyah and another man from the Quraysh.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'As for Muawiyah, he is a young servant from the servants of Quraysh. He has nothing. As for the other man, he is a companion of evil and has no good in him. But marry Usama ibn Zaid.' So I disliked it. He repeated it three times, so I married him."
فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «لَيْسَ لَكِ سُكْنَى وَلَا نَفَقَةٌ اعْتَدِّي عِنْدَ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ فَإِذَا حَلَلْتِ فَآذِنِينِي» قَالَتْ فَلَمَّا حَلَلْتُ آذَنْتُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَمَنْ خَطَبَكِ؟» فَقُلْتُ مُعَاوِيَةُ وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَمَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ فَإِنَّهُ غُلَامٌ مِنْ غِلْمَانِ قُرَيْشٍ لَا شَيْءَ لَهُ وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ فَإِنَّهُ صَاحِبُ شَرٍّ لَا خَيْرَ فِيهِ وَلَكِنِ انْكِحِي أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ» فَكَرِهْتُهُ فَقَالَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَنَكَحْتُهُ
