Bayhaqi 14472 — A woman preparing herself for the consummation

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أنبأ هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ سَيَّارٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزَاةٍ، فَلَمَّا أَقْبَلْنَا تَعَجَّلْتُ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ لِي قَطُوفٍ فَلَحِقَنِي رَاكِبٌ مِنْ خَلْفِي فَنَخَّسَ بَعِيرِي بِعَنَزَةٍ كَانَتْ مَعَهُ فَانْطَلَقَ بَعِيرِي كَأَجْوَدِ مَا أَنْتَ رَاءٍ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ فَالْتَفَتُّ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: " مَا يُعْجِلُكَ يَا جَابِرُ؟ " قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي حَدِيثُ عَهْدٍ بِعُرْسٍ فَقَالَ: " أَبِكْرًا تَزَوَّجْتَهَا أَمْ ثَيِّبًا؟ " فَقَالَ: بَلْ ثَيِّبٌ، قَالَ: " فَهَلَّا جَارِيَةٌ تُلَاعِبُهَا وَتُلَاعِبُكَ؟ " قَالَ: فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ ذَهَبْنَا لِنَدْخُلَ فَقَالَ: " أَمْهِلُوا حَتَّى نَدْخُلَ لَيْلًا أَيْ عِشَاءً كَيْ تَمْتَشِطَ الشَّعِثَةُ وَتَسْتَحِدَّ الْمُغِيبَةُ "، قَالَ: وَقَالَ: " إِذَا قَدِمْتَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَالْكَيْسَ الْكَيْسَ " رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَحْيَى وَغَيْرِهِ، وَرَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي النُّعْمَانِ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ هُشَيْمٍ، وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ.
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: We were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a military expedition. When we were returning, I hurried along on a slow camel of mine. A rider from behind prodded my camel with a short spear he had, and my camel set off at a pace such as I had never seen even the finest camel go. I turned round, and it was the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Jabir, why are you in a hurry?" I said: O Messenger of Allah, I am newly married. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Did you marry a virgin or a previously married woman?" He said: I said: A previously married woman. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why did you not marry a young girl, so that you could play with her and she with you?" When we reached Madinah, we set out to enter our homes, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Wait, and enter at night (at the time of Isha), so that the woman with dishevelled hair may comb it and the woman whose husband was away (on a journey) may remove her pubic hair." And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you arrive, show good sense."
