Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that when I got married, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked me, "Whom did you marry?" I replied, "A widow." He said, "Why did you not marry a virgin, so that you could play with her?" Muharib (one of the narrators in the chain) said: Then I related this statement of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to Amr bin Dinar, so he said: I heard Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to me, "Why did you not marry a virgin woman, so that you could play with her and she could play with you?"
