Bayhaqi 13817 — The father marrying off his young son

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو الْفَضْلِ بْنُ خُمَيْرَوَيْهِ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ، ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ثنا هُشَيْمٌ، أنبأ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ " زَوَّجَ ابْنًا لَهُ ابْنَةَ أَخِيهِ وَابْنُهُ صَغِيرٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ " ⦗٢٣٢⦘ وَهَذَا مَحْمُولٌ عَلَى أَنَّ أَخَاهُ أَوْجَبَ الْعَقْدَ وَابْنُ عُمَرَ قَبِلَهُ لِابْنِهِ الصَّغِيرِ، وَرُوِّينَا فِي ذَلِكَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، وَالْحَسَنِ، وَالشَّعْبِيِّ وَالنَّخَعِيِّ، وَرُوِيَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بِإِسْنَادٍ ضَعِيفٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُرْسَلًا: " إِذَا أَنْكَحَ الرَّجُلُ ابْنَهُ وَهُوَ كَارِهٌ فَلَا نِكَاحَ لَهُ، وَإِذَا زَوَّجَهُ وَهُوَ صَغِيرٌ جَازَ نِكَاحُهُ "، وَرُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " الصَّدَاقُ عَلَى الِابْنِ الَّذِي أَنْكَحْتُمُوهُ "، وَرُوِيَ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " إِذَا أَنْكَحَ الرَّجُلُ ابْنَهُ الصَّغِيرَ فَنِكَاحُهُ جَائِزٌ وَلَا طَلَاقَ لَهُ "، وَعَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ: " لَا يَجُوزُ لَهُ طَلَاقٌ، يَعْنِي عَلَى الْمَجْنُونِ ".
Sulayman bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) married his young son to his niece, and his son was young at that time. This is to be understood as his brother having concluded the contract and his uncle having accepted it on behalf of his son because of his being young.
(b) Al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with a weak chain: "When a man marries off his son and he dislikes it, there is no marriage; and when he is married in childhood, it is permissible."
(c) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that the dower is the responsibility of the child whom you are marrying off.
(d) Ata (may Allah have mercy on him) says that when a man marries off his young child, his marriage is permissible and there is no divorce (for him).
(e) Imam al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) says that the divorce of an insane person is not permissible.
