عَنْ نُبَيْحِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْمَرٍ وَكَانَ يَخْطُبُ بِنْتَ شَيْبَةَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَلَى ابْنِهِ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمَوْسِمِ، فَقَالَ: أَلَا أُرَاهُ أَعْرَابِيًّا، إِنَّ الْمُحْرِمَ لَا يَنْكِحُ وَلَا يُنْكِحُ، أَخْبَرَنِي بِذَلِكَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَحَدَّثَنِي نُبَيْحٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ بِنَحْوِهِ
Nubaih bin Wahb says: Umar bin Ubaidullah wanted to arrange the marriage of his son (Talha) with the daughter of Shaibah bin Uthman, so he sent a message to Aban bin Uthman, who was at that time the Amir of Hajj. He said: I think this person is also a Bedouin (ignorant of the Shari'ah rulings). The fact is that a Muhrim can neither marry nor arrange a marriage. Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated this to me from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
