Hadith 15345

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ سَبْرَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ , قَالَ : خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ ، حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِعُسْفَانَ , قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ الْعُمْرَةَ قَدْ دَخَلَتْ فِي الْحَجِّ " , فَقَالَ لَهُ سُرَاقَةُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ أَوْ مَالِكُ بْنُ سُرَاقَةَ شَكَّ عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ أَيْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، عَلِّمْنَا تَعْلِيمَ قَوْمٍ كَأَنَّمَا وُلِدُوا الْيَوْمَ ، عُمْرَتُنَا هَذِهِ لِعَامِنَا هَذَا أَمْ لْأَبَدِ ؟ قَالَ : " بَلْ لْأَبَدِ " , فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ طُفْنَا بِالْبَيْتِ وَبَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَنَا بِمُتْعَةِ النِّسَاءِ ، فَرَجَعْنَا إِلَيْهِ ، فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّهُنَّ قَدْ أَبَيْنَ إِلَّا إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ، قَالَ : " فَافْعَلُوا " , قَالَ : فَخَرَجْتُ أَنَا وَصَاحِبٌ لِي عَلَيَّ بُرْدٌ , وَعَلَيْهِ بُرْدٌ ، فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ , فَعَرَضْنَا عَلَيْهَا أَنْفُسَنَا ، فَجَعَلَتْ تَنْظُرُ إِلَى بُرْدِ صَاحِبِي ، فَتَرَاهُ أَجْوَدَ مِنْ بُرْدِي ، وَتَنْظُرُ إِلَيَّ فَتَرَانِي أَشَبَّ مِنْهُ ، فَقَالَتْ : بُرْدٌ مَكَانَ بُرْدٍ ، وَاخْتَارَتْنِي فَتَزَوَّجْتُهَا عَشْرًا بِبُرْدِي ، فَبِتُّ مَعَهَا تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ غَدَوْتُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَخْطُبُ يَقُولُ : " مَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً إِلَى أَجَلٍ ، فَلْيُعْطِهَا مَا سَمَّى لَهَا ، وَلَا يَسْتَرْجِعْ مِمَّا أَعْطَاهَا شَيْئًا ، وَلْيُفَارِقْهَا ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى قَدْ حَرَّمَهَا عَلَيْكُمْ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sabrah that we set out from Madinah Munawwarah with the Prophet (ﷺ) on the occasion of the Farewell Pilgrimage. When we reached the place of Ghassan, the Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘Umrah has entered into Hajj.’ Upon this, Sayyiduna Suraqah bin Malik submitted: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Teach us as you would teach those who have just been born today. Is this ruling for this ‘Umrah of ours only, or is it forever?’ The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘No, rather this ruling is forever.’

Then, when we reached Makkah Mukarramah, we performed Tawaf of the House of Allah and Sa’i between Safa and Marwah. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) permitted us to go to our women. We returned to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Women are not pleased except at a fixed time and in no other way.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘Do as you wish.’

So, my companion and I set out. I had a sheet and he had a sheet. We went to a woman and presented ourselves to her. When she looked at my companion’s sheet, she found it better than mine, and when she looked at me, she found me younger than my companion. Eventually, she said: ‘The sheet will be exchanged for a sheet,’ and with that, she chose me. I married her for ten days in exchange for my sheet. I spent the night with her, and when morning came, I set out for the mosque. When I arrived, I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) delivering a sermon, saying: ‘Whoever among you has married a woman for a fixed period, let him give her what he agreed upon, and do not take back anything you have given her, and separate from her, for Allah has now made this act forbidden for you until the Day of Resurrection.’
