Chapter: Seeking the consent of virgins and previously-married women
Hadith 1870
حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ مُوسَى السُّدِّيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنسٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ الْهَاشِمِيِّ ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ ، عَن ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الْأَيِّمُ أَوْلَى بِنَفْسِهَا مِنْ وَلِيِّهَا ، وَالْبِكْرُ تُسْتَأْمَرُ فِي نَفْسِهَا " ، قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ : إِنَّ الْبِكْرَ تَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ تَتَكَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِذْنُهَا سُكُوتُهَا " .
´It was narrated from Ibn Abbas that:` the Messenger of Allah said: “A widow has more right (to decide) concerning herself than her guardian, and a virgin should be consulted”. It was said: “O Messenger of Allah, a virgin may be too shy to speak.” He said: “Her consent is her silence.”
