Chapter on seeking permission from virgins and previously married women regarding themselves
Muwatta Malik (Yahya) 1077 — on seeking permission from virgins
حَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ : " الْأَيِّمُ أَحَقُّ بِنَفْسِهَا مِنْ وَلِيِّهَا، وَالْبِكْرُ تُسْتَأْذَنُ فِي نَفْسِهَا، وَإِذْنُهَا صُمَاتُهَا "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A previously married woman has more right over herself than her guardian, and the virgin's permission will be sought, and her permission is her silence."
