[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered Makkah on the Day of the conquest and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ allowed them to enjoy the women, so I went out with my cousin and I had a worn-out cloak and my cousin had a new cloak, which was longer than mine. And I am beautiful, more beautiful than my cousin and my cousin is more beautiful than me. So we went out until when we were at the highest or lowest point of Makkah, we met a girl from Banu Amir ibn Sa'sa'ah, resembling a virgin. So we said, "Verily, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has commanded us or allowed us to enjoy women. Do you have any need of any one of us?" She said, "Has he really done so?" We said, "Yes." She said, "Yes." So we took off our cloaks and she began to look at the cloaks and then she looked at me and my cousin. When my cousin saw her looking at me with affection, he said, "My cloak is new, long, and has not been touched, while his cloak is worn-out and has been touched." And the girl said, "There is no harm in this cloak." She repeated that statement once or twice, and then she chose me. And we did not leave Makkah until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited it.

Is it possible that one of us may contract temporary marriage with you? She said: What will you give me as a dower? Each one of us spread his cloak. She began to cast a glance on both the persons. My companion also looked at her when she was casting a glance at her side and he said: This cloak of his is worn out, whereas my cloak is quite new. She, however, said twice or thrice: There is no harm in (accepting) this cloak (the old one). So I contracted temporary marriage with her, and I did not come out (of this) until Messenger of Allah ﷺ declared it forbidden.

[Machine] "We went out with the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , during the year of the conquest. We stayed fifteen nights and days. He, ﷺ , allowed us to engage in pleasure. I, along with my cousin, went to the lower part of Mecca or perhaps the higher part of Mecca. We met a girl from the tribe of Banu 'Amir bin Sa'sa'a who appeared to be like a virgin with her youthful beauty. I was close to Dammam and I was wearing a cool, thick garment, while my cousin was wearing a thin one. We asked her if any of us could enjoy her company. She asked, 'Is that possible?' We said, 'Yes.' She then looked at my cousin, and I said to her, 'My garment is cool and thick, and my cousin's garment is thin but attractive.' She said, 'There is nothing wrong with your cousin's garment.' So, she allowed him to have pleasure with her. We did not leave Mecca until the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , made it forbidden."

[Machine] "His father said, 'He (referring to the person speaking) marched (or went out) with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .' He continued, 'So one day, I and a man from my tribe went forth, and I had an advantage in beauty over him. He was close to adolescence. Each of us had coldness, and my coldness was a natural coldness, while the coldness of my cousin's son was new and biting. Until when we reached the bottom or the top of Makkah, we met a girl who resembled the moon. So we asked her, 'May we enjoy your company?' She replied, 'And what will you give in return?' Each of us spread his coldness in front of her. She looked at the man, and when the man saw her looking, he glanced at me compassionately and said, 'This coldness is natural, and my coldness is new and biting.' So she said, 'There is nothing wrong with this coldness.' Then I enjoyed her company, and we did not leave until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited her (from such activities)."
