Sunan ad-Darimi 2212

Translation

✧ Do you have a young virgin girl who reminds you of Abu Abdurrahman? So he said, "If you say that, then I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'O youth, whoever among you is able to marry, let him do so, for it is more effective in guarding the gaze and preserving chastity. And whoever is not able, then let him 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).
