كَرْدَمُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ الثَّقَفِيُّ أَبُو مَيْمُونَةَ

tabarani:16539al-ʿAbbās b. al-Faḍl al-Asfāṭī > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. al-Mubārak al-ʿAyshī > Salm b. Qutaybah

[Machine] "Oh Messenger of Allah, listen to him," he said. "Where is the army of 'Uthran?" The Prophet ﷺ recognized that army and said, "I was in that army." Tariq ibn al-Muraqqi asked, "Who will give me a spear in reward?" I asked, "What is its reward?" He said, "The first daughter born to me, I will marry her to him." So I gave him my spear, but something happened and I lost it. Later, I heard that he had a daughter who had reached marriageable age, so I said to him, "Let me take her as a wife and she will be my reward." But he refused unless I paid him a dowry. So the Prophet ﷺ said, "How much can you afford to give him?" I said, "She has seen the Qatir." So the Prophet ﷺ said, "It is best for you not to commit a sin or make her commit a sin. Leave her and don't pursue it."

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَصْغَى إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ أَيْنَ عَامُ جَيْشِ عِثْرَانَ؟ قَالَ فَعَرَفَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشَ كُنْتُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشِ فَقَالَ طَارِقُ بْنُ الْمُرَقَّعِ مَنْ يُعْطِينِي رُمْحًا بِثَوَابِهِ؟ قُلْتُ وَمَا ثَوَابُهُ؟ فَقَالَ أَوَّلُ ابْنَةٍ تُولَدُ لِي أُزَوِّجُهُ إِيَّاهَا فَأَعْطَيْتُهُ رُمْحِي فَأَهْوَتْ عَنْهُ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّهُ وُلِدَ لَهُ ابْنَةٌ وَقَدْ بَلَغَتْ فَقُلْتُ انْقُلْ إِلَيَّ أَهْلِي فَأَبَى إِلَّا بِصَدَاقٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَبِقَدْرِ أَيِّ النِّسَاءِ هِيَ؟» قَالَ قَدْ رَأَتِ الْقَتِيرَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «خَيْرٌ لَكَ أَنْ لَا تَأْثَمَ وَلَا تُؤْثِمَ دَعْهَا عَنْكَ»
