ُو السَّنَابِلِ بْنُ بَعْكَكٍ فَقَالَ قَدْ أَسْرَعْتِ اعْتَدِّي آخِرَ الأَجَلَيْنِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا . فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي . قَالَ " وَمِمَّ ذَاكَ " . فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ . فَقَالَ " إِنْ وَجَدْتِ زَوْجًا صَالِحًا فَتَزَوَّجِي " .
