Bayhaqi 13623 — There is no marriage without a guardian

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ مَنْصُورٍ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ سُفْيَانَ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا كَامِلٍ الْفُضَيْلَ بْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ، يَقُولُ: ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، لِأَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا بُرْدَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " لَا نِكَاحَ إِلَّا بِوَلِيٍّ " قَالَ: نَعَمْ قَالَ الْحَسَنُ: وَلَوْ قَالَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، لَقَالَ: نَعَمْ " قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، وَأَبُو مُوسَى، عَنْ أَبِي دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيِّ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى التِّرْمِذِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ فِي كِتَابِ الْعِلَلِ: حَدِيثُ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى عِنْدِي وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ أَصَحُّ، وَإِنْ كَانَ سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، وَشُعْبَةُ لَا يَذْكُرَانِ فِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ دَلَّ فِي حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ أَنَّ سَمَاعَهُمَا جَمِيعًا فِي وَقْتٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَهَؤُلَاءِ الَّذِينَ رَوَوْا عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى سَمِعُوا فِي أَوْقَاتٍ مُخْتَلِفَةٍ، وَقَالَ: يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَدْ رَوَى هَذَا، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ يُونُسُ بَعْضَ مَشَايِخِ أَبِيهِ، فَهُوَ قَدِيمُ السَّمَاعِ وَإِسْرَائِيلُ قَدْ رَوَاهُ وَهُوَ أَثْبَتُ أَصْحَابِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ بَعْدَ شُعْبَةَ، وَالثَّوْرِيِّ.
Shu'bah said: Sufyan al-Thawri (may Allah have mercy on him) said to Abu Ishaq: Did you hear Abu Burdah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrate from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: "There is no marriage without a guardian"? He said: Yes. Al-Hasan said: And had he said "from his father," he would also have said: Yes. Al-Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Mahmud bin Ghaylan (may Allah have mercy on him) and Abu Musa (Muhammad bin al-Muthanna) likewise narrated it from Abu Dawud al-Tayalisi (may Allah have mercy on him). Abu Isa al-Tirmidhi (may Allah have mercy on him) said in Kitab al-Ilal: In my view, the hadith of Abu Burdah from Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) is more authentic, and Allah knows best, even though Sufyan al-Thawri (may Allah have mercy on him) and Shu'bah (may Allah have mercy on him) do not mention Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) in it, because Shu'bah's hadith shows that the two of them heard it together at one time, while those who narrated it from Abu Ishaq, from Abu Burdah, from Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) heard it at different times. He also said: Yunus bin Abi Ishaq narrated this from his father, and Yunus met some of his father's shaykhs, so his hearing is early; and Isra'il narrated it, and he is the most reliable of Abu Ishaq's students after Shu'bah and al-Thawri.
