Hadith #348
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ عَمْرٌو سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هَلْ نَكَحْتَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ أَبِكْرًا أَمْ ثَيِّبًا قُلْتُ ثَيِّبًا قَالَ فَهَلَّا بِكْرًا تُلَاعِبُهَا وَتُلَاعِبُكَ قُلْتُ يَا
رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قُتِلَ أَبِي يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ وَتَرَكَ سَبْعَ بَنَاتٍ وَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَجْمَعَ إِلَيْهِمْ خَرْقَاءَ مِثْلَهُنَّ وَلَكِنْ امْرَأَةً تُمَشِّطُهُنَّ وَتُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَالَ أَصَبْتَ

Sufyan narrated to us, 'Amr said: I heard Jabir (رضي الله عنهما) say: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: 'Have you married?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'A virgin or a previously married woman?' I said: 'A previously married woman.' He said: 'Why not a virgin whom you could play with and she could play with you?'
