Musnad Ahmad 10146 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَمْرٍو ، قََالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ ، عَنِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ , قََالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " تُسْتَأْمَرُ الْيَتِيمَةُ فِي نَفْسِهَا ، فَإِنْ سَكَتَتْ فَهُوَ إِذْنُهَا ، وَإِنْ أَبَتْ فَلَا جَوَازَ عَلَيْهَا " .
It is narrated with the previous chain that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Permission should be sought from an orphan girl for marriage; if she remains silent, then this will be considered as her permission, and if she refuses, then there is no justification for forcing her.
