أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، قَالَ : أَنْبَأَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ " نَهَى عَنِ التَّبَتُّلِ " , قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ : قَتَادَةُ أَثْبَتُ وَأَحْفَظُ مِنْ أَشْعَثَ , وَحَدِيثُ أَشْعَثَ أَشْبَهُ بِالصَّوَابِ ، وَاللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ .
´Narrated Samurah bin Jundab:` It was narrated from Samurah bin Jundab that the Prophet forbade celibacy. Abu Abdur-Rahman said: Qatadah is more reliable and better preserves narrations than Ash'ath but the hadith of Ash'ath (here) appears to be the correct one. Allah, Most High, knows best.

Commentary:
Qatadah narrated this report from al-Hasan from Samurah ibn Jundub, meaning he made it the hadith of Samurah. However, this is his error, which is possible even from someone extremely trustworthy. Whereas Ash'ath has narrated it with the correct chain. Thus, this hadith is musnad of Aishah. And Allah Ta'ala knows best.

Benefits and Issues:
➊
To consider remaining unmarried as a virtue is incorrect, whether it is in the name of Sufism (tasawwuf), Qalandariyyah, or by any other name.
Marriage (nikah) is the Sunnah of all the Prophets (alayhimussalam).
The noble Prophets are not beings of light (nuri makhluq), rather they are human beings, the noblest of all creation, and for this reason they would marry and have children.
