Sahih Muslim 2471
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى التَّمِيمِيُّ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ جَمِيعًا عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِيَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ - عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَمْشِي مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بِمِنًى فَلَقِيَهُ عُثْمَانُ فَقَامَ مَعَهُ يُحَدِّثُهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَلاَ نُزَوِّجُكَ جَارِيَةً شَابَّةً لَعَلَّهَا تُذَكِّرُكَ بَعْضَ مَا مَضَى مِنْ زَمَانِكَ . قَالَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لَئِنْ قُلْتَ ذَاكَ لَقَدْ قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ فَإِنَّهُ أَغَضُّ لِلْبَصَرِ وَأَحْصَنُ لِلْفَرْجِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَعَلَيْهِ بِالصَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ وِجَاءٌ " . حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ قَالَ إِنِّي لأَمْشِي مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ بِمِنًى إِذْ لَقِيَهُ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ فَقَالَ هَلُمَّ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ فَاسْتَخْلاَهُ فَلَمَّا رَأَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَنْ لَيْسَتْ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ - قَالَ - قَالَ لِي تَعَالَ يَا عَلْقَمَةُ - قَالَ - فَجِئْتُ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ أَلاَ نُزَوِّجُكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ جَارِيَةً بِكْرًا لَعَلَّهُ يَرْجِعُ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ مَا كُنْتَ تَعْهَدُ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لَئِنْ قُلْتَ ذَاكَ . فَذَكَرَ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ .
It is narrated from Alqamah that he said: I was walking with Hazrat Abdullah (ra) in Mina when Hazrat Uthman (ra) met him and stood with him talking to him. Hazrat Uthman (ra) said to him: O Abu Abdur Rahman! Shall we not marry you to a young girl? Perhaps she may remind you of some of your bygone days. The narrator says: Hazrat Abdullah (ra) said: If you say this, then the Messenger of Allah (saw) said to us: “O company of young men! Whoever of you has the means to marry should marry, for it is a means of lowering the gaze and the best guardian of chastity. And whoever does not have the means should fast, for it is a means of self-restraint for him.” It is narrated from Alqamah: I was walking with Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (ra) in Mina when Hazrat Uthman bin Affan (ra) met him and said: O Abu Abdur Rahman! Come here. The narrator says: Then he spoke with him in private. When Hazrat Abdullah (ra) saw that he had nothing more to say, he (Alqamah) says, he said to me: O Alqamah, come. He says: I went, and Hazrat Uthman (ra) said to him: O Abu Abdur Rahman! Shall we not marry you to a virgin girl? Perhaps what you have already passed through may come back to you. Hazrat Abdullah (ra) said: If you say this... The rest of the narration is like that of Abu Mu'awiyah.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah (ra) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (saw) said to us: “O company of young men! Whoever of you has the means to marry should marry, for it is a means of lowering the gaze and a guardian of chastity. And whoever does not have the means for it should fast, for it is a means of self-restraint for him.” Another narration is reported from Abdur Rahman bin Yazid, who says: I and my paternal uncle Alqamah and Aswad went to Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (ra). The narrator says: I was young in those days. Then he mentioned a hadith. I think he narrated that hadith because of me. The rest of the narration is like the first narration, but in it there is this addition: A short while after that I got married. In another narration there are not the words “fa-lam albath hatta tazawwajtu” (it was not long before I got married).

وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ نَفَرًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم سَأَلُوا أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ عَمَلِهِ فِي السِّرِّ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لاَ أَتَزَوَّجُ النِّسَاءَ . وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لاَ آكُلُ اللَّحْمَ . وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لاَ أَنَامُ عَلَى فِرَاشٍ . فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ . فَقَالَ " مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ قَالُوا كَذَا وَكَذَا لَكِنِّي أُصَلِّي وَأَنَامُ وَأَصُومُ وَأُفْطِرُ وَأَتَزَوَّجُ النِّسَاءَ فَمَنْ رَغِبَ عَنْ سُنَّتِي فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (ra) that some of the Companions (ra) of the Prophet (saw) asked the pure wives of the Prophet (saw) about those deeds of his (saw) which he (saw) performed in private. After that one of them (the questioners) said: I will never marry women; another said: I will never eat meat; and a third said: I will not sleep on a bed. At this the Messenger of Allah (saw) praised and glorified Allah, the Exalted, and said: “What is the matter with people who speak like this? I offer Prayer (Salat) and (also) sleep, I fast and (also) leave off fasting, and I (also) marry women. So whoever turns away from my Sunnah is not of me.”

It is narrated from Hazrat Jabir (ra) that the Messenger of Allah (saw) saw a woman. He (saw) came to his wife Hazrat Zainab (ra), who was tanning a hide. He (saw) fulfilled his need. Then he (saw) came to his Companions (ra) and said: “Surely a woman comes in the form of a tempter and goes back in the form of a tempter. Therefore, when one of you sees a woman, he should come to his wife. This will remove what is in his heart.” In another narration there are the words “'an Jabir bin Abdillah annan nabiyya (saw)” (from Jabir bin Abdullah that the Prophet (saw)) (instead of “'an Jabir anna rasulallahi (saw)” (from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah (saw))), and in this narration there are not the words “tudbiru fi suratish shaitan” (she goes back in the form of Satan).

It is narrated from Qais that he said: I heard Hazrat Abdullah (ra) say: We were with the Messenger of Allah (saw) on a military expedition. There were no women with us. We said: Shall we not put an end to our manly power? He (saw) forbade us from that. Then he (saw) permitted us to marry a woman for a fixed period in return for a garment. Then Hazrat Abdullah (ra) recited this verse: “O ye who believe! make not unlawful the good things which Allah has made lawful for you, and do not transgress. Surely, Allah loves not the transgressors.” (Qur’an 5:88) In another narration there are the words “qara'a 'alaina hadhihil ayah” (he recited this verse to us) (instead of “qara'a Abdullah” (Abdullah recited)). In another narration it is stated: We were young, and we submitted: O Messenger of Allah (saw)! Shall we not put an end to our manly power? But in this narration there is no mention of “naghzu” (we were on an expedition).

وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ سَبْرَةَ الْجُهَنِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ سَبْرَةَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَذِنَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِالْمُتْعَةِ فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا وَرَجُلٌ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي عَامِرٍ كَأَنَّهَا بَكْرَةٌ عَيْطَاءُ فَعَرَضْنَا عَلَيْهَا أَنْفُسَنَا فَقَالَتْ مَا تُعْطِي فَقُلْتُ رِدَائِي . وَقَالَ صَاحِبِي رِدَائِي . وَكَانَ رِدَاءُ صَاحِبِي أَجْوَدَ مِنْ رِدَائِي وَ كُنْتُ أَشَبَّ مِنْهُ فَإِذَا نَظَرَتْ إِلَى رِدَاءِ صَاحِبِي أَعْجَبَهَا وَإِذَا نَظَرَتْ إِلَىَّ أَعْجَبْتُهَا ثُمَّ قَالَتْ أَنْتَ وَرِدَاؤُكَ يَكْفِينِي . فَمَكَثْتُ مَعَهَا ثَلاَثًا ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ كَانَ عِنْدَهُ شَىْءٌ مِنْ هَذِهِ النِّسَاءِ الَّتِي يَتَمَتَّعُ فَلْيُخَلِّ سَبِيلَهَا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Sabrah (ra) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (saw) permitted us Mut'ah, so I and another man went to a woman of the Banu Amir. She was like a young, long-necked she-camel. We offered ourselves to her. She said: What will you give me? I said: My cloak; and my companion said: My cloak. My companion's cloak was more beautiful than my cloak, and I was younger than him. When she looked at my companion's cloak, she liked it, and when she looked at me, I pleased her. Then she said: You and your cloak are enough for me. I stayed with her for three days. Then the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Whoever has with him a woman with whom he has contracted Mut'ah should let her go.”

It is narrated from Rabi' bin Sabrah that his father took part with the Messenger of Allah (saw) in the campaign of the Conquest of Mecca. He says: We stayed there fifteen days, thirty counting nights and days together. The Messenger of Allah (saw) permitted us Mut'ah with women, so I and a man from my people set out. I was superior to him in good looks, and he was almost ugly, and each of us had a cloak. My cloak was old, and my cousin's cloak was brand new and soft. We were in the lower or upper part of Mecca when we met a young girl who was long-necked like a she-camel. We said: Would you like one of us to contract Mut'ah with you? She said: What will the two of you spend? Each of us spread out his cloak. She began to look at the two men, and my companion began to look her up and down and said: His cloak is old and my cloak is brand new and soft. The woman said two or three times: There is nothing wrong with his cloak either. Then I contracted Mut'ah with her, and I did not leave there until the Messenger of Allah (saw) declared it unlawful. In another narration there are the words “'an abihi qala kharajna ma'a rasulillahi (saw) 'amal fathi ila makkah” (from his father, who said: We set out with the Messenger of Allah (saw) in the year of the Conquest to Mecca) (instead of “anna abahu ghaza ma'a rasulillahi (saw) fatha makkah” (that his father took part with the Messenger of Allah (saw) in the campaign of the Conquest of Mecca)). The rest of the narration is the same, and in it there is this addition: “qalat wa hal yasluhu dhaka” (the woman said: Is this proper?). And in this narration it is also stated that he (the other man) had said that his cloak was old and worn out.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنِي الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سَبْرَةَ الْجُهَنِيُّ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ " يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي قَدْ كُنْتُ أَذِنْتُ لَكُمْ فِي الاِسْتِمْتَاعِ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ حَرَّمَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَمَنْ كَانَ عِنْدَهُ مِنْهُنَّ شَىْءٌ فَلْيُخَلِّ سَبِيلَهُ وَلاَ تَأْخُذُوا مِمَّا آتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ شَيْئًا" . وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَائِمًا بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْبَابِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ نُمَيْرٍ .
Rabi' bin Sabrah Juhani narrates from his father that he was with the Messenger of Allah (saw). He (saw) said: “O people! I had permitted you to contract Mut'ah with women, and now Allah, the Exalted, has declared it unlawful until the Day of Resurrection. So whoever has any of these women with him should let her go her way, and do not take back anything of what you have given her.” In another narration there are the words “ra'aitu rasulallahi (saw) qa'iman bainar rukni wal babi wa huwa yaqul” (instead of “annahu kana ma'a rasulillahi (saw)” (that he was with the Messenger of Allah (saw))), that is: I saw the Messenger of Allah (saw) standing between the corner (of the Ka'bah) and the door, and he (saw) was saying. The rest of the narration is like the first narration.

Abdul Aziz bin Rabi' bin Sabrah bin Ma'bad says: I heard my father Rabi' bin Sabrah. He relates from his father Sabrah bin Ma'bad that in the year of the Conquest of Mecca the Prophet (saw) permitted his Companions (ra) Mut'ah with women. He says: I and a companion of mine from the Banu Sulaim set out until we found a girl of the Banu Amir. She was like a young, long-necked she-camel. We proposed to her for herself and presented our cloaks to her. She began to look, and she found me more handsome than my companion, and she found my companion's cloak finer than my cloak. Then she thought it over in her mind for a little while and then chose me over my companion. Then those women stayed with us for three days. Then the Messenger of Allah (saw) instructed us to separate from them.
