اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ الْفَقِيهُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو قَالَا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، أنبأ أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، ثنا مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا بَكْرِ بْنَ حَفْصٍ قَالَ: كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ إِذَا دُعِيَ إِلَى تَزْوِيجٍ قَالَ: " لَا تُفَضِّضُوا عَلَيْنَا النَّاسَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَصَلَّى الله عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، إِنَّ فُلَانًا خَطَبَ إِلَيْكُمْ فُلَانَةَ، إِنْ أَنْكَحْتُمُوهُ فَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَإِنْ رَدَدْتُمُوهُ فَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ ".
Abu Bakr bin Hafs said that whenever Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) was invited to a marriage, he would say: Let not all the people come to us. 'Al-hamdu lillah' (All praise is for Allah) and 'Wa al-salatu wa al-salamu 'ala Muhammad' (Blessings and peace be upon Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)). So-and-so has proposed to you for marriage to so-and-so; if you marry her to him, then 'Al-hamdu lillah' (All praise is for Allah), and if you turn him back, that is, do not marry her to him, then 'Subhan Allah' (Glory be to Allah).
