Show the chain

وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ: نَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ قَالَ:

كُنْتُ أَمُرُّ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللهِ، فَلَقِيَهُ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ فَحَدَّثَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَلَا تَزَوَّجُ، أَوْ أَلَا أُزَوِّجُكَ جَارِيَةً تُذَكِّرُكَ مَا مَضَى مِنْ زَمَانِكَ ؟ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: أَمَا إِذْ قُلْتَ ذَاكَ لَقَدْ قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: يَا مَعْشَرَ الشَّبَابَ، مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ، فَإِنَّهُ أَغَضُّ لِلطَّرْفِ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَعَلَيْهِ بِالصَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ وِجَاءٌ

✧ I was walking with 'Abdullah when 'Uthman b. 'Affan met him and spoke with him. 'Uthman said to him: 'O Abu 'Abd al-Rahman, will you not marry, or shall I marry you to a young girl who will remind you of what has passed of your time?' 'Abdullah said: 'Since you have said that, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ indeed said to us: "O company of young men, whoever among you is able to marry should marry, for it is more effective in lowering the gaze. And whoever is not able should fast, for it will be a shield for him."'

  • Dāraquṭnī

    وسئل عن حديث علقمة عن عبد الله عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم من استطاع منكم الباءة فليتزوج الحديث فقال يرويه الأعمش والمغيرة ومنصور وحماد وأبو حمزة عن إبراهيم عن علقمة عن عبد الله وخالفهم أبو معشر فرواه عن إبراهيم عن علقمة وأسنده عن عثمان بن عفان وقول الأعمش ومن تابعه أصح

    machine translationHe was also asked about the hadith of ʿAlqamah, from ʿAbdullāh, from the Prophet ﷺ: "Whoever among you is able to marry, let him marry" (the hadith). He said: It is narrated by al-Aʿmash, al-Mughīrah, Manṣūr, Ḥammād and Abū Ḥamzah, from Ibrāhīm, from ʿAlqamah, from ʿAbdullāh. Abū Maʿshar contradicted them: he narrated it from Ibrāhīm, from ʿAlqamah, and traced it back to ʿUthmān b. ʿAffān. The statement of al-Aʿmash and those who followed him is more correct (aṣaḥḥ).
