(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَمْشِي مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بِمِنًى ، فَلَقِيَهُ عُثْمَانُ ، فَقَامَ مَعَهُ يُحَدِّثُهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَلَا نُزَوِّجُكَ جَارِيَةً شَابَّةً ، لَعَلَّهَا أَنْ تُذَكِّرَكَ مَا مَضَى مِنْ زَمَانِكَ ؟ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : أَمَا لَئِنْ قُلْتَ ذَاكَ ، لَقَدْ قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابِ ، مَنْ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ الْبَاءَةَ ، فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ ، فَإِنَّهُ أَغَضُّ لِلْبَصَرِ ، وَأَحْصَنُ لِلْفَرْجِ ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ ، فَعَلَيْهِ بِالصَّوْمِ ، فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ وِجَاءٌ " .
Alqamah narrates that once, in the plain of Mina, I was walking with Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) when on the way we met Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him). He stood with him and began to talk. Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Abu Abdur Rahman! Should we not arrange your marriage with a young girl so that she may remind you of past things? Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: You have said this, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us: "O group of young men! Whoever among you has the ability to marry should get married, for marriage lowers the gaze and protects the private parts, and whoever is not able to marry should fast, for fasting diminishes sexual desire."
