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."'
