عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْبِكْرُ تُسْتَأْمَرُ وَالثَّيِّبُ تُشَاوَرُ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْبِكْرَ تَسْتَحْيِي قَالَ سُكُوتُهَا رَضَاهَا
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Permission will be sought from a virgin, and consultation will be done with a widow. Someone said: O Messenger of Allah! A virgin feels shy. He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Her silence is her consent.
