أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْقَطَّانُ بِالرَّقَّةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَكِيمُ بْنُ سَيْفٍ الرَّقِّيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُنَيْسَةَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ
بَيْنَا أَنَا وَابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ نَمْشِي بِالْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ فَلَقِيَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ قَالَ فَقَامَا وَتَنَحَّيْتُ عَنْهُمَا فَلَمَّا رَأَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَنْ لَيْسَ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ يَسِرُّهَا قَالَ ادْنُ عَلْقَمَةُ قَالَ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ أَلَا نُزَوِّجُكَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ جَارِيَةً لَعَلَّهَا أَنْ تُذَكِّرَكَ مَا فَاتَكَ؟ قَالَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لَئِنْ قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّا قَدْ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ شَبَابًا فَقَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ فَإِنَّهُ أَغَضُّ لِلْبَصَرِ وَأَحْصَنُ لِلْفَرْجِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ مِنْكُمُ الْبَاءَةَ فَلْيَصُمْ فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ وَجَاءٌ»

✧ While I and Ibn Mas'ud were walking in the city, Uthman ibn Affan met us and took Ibn Mas'ud's hand. So they both stood up and I stepped aside. When Abdullah saw that he had no need for me to accompany him, he said, "Come, O Alqamah." I then approached him while he was saying, "Should we not marry you, Abdullah, to a girl who may remind you of what you have missed?" Abdullah replied, "If you say that, then indeed we were young with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said to us, 'Whoever is able to marry, let him marry, for it will help him lower his gaze and guard his chastity. And whoever is unable to marry, let him fast, for it will be a shield for him." And this is the Islamic castration.

- Yaḥyá b. Maʿīn
سئل يحيى بن معين عن حديث أبي معشر فقال خطأ خالفه الأعمش
machine translationYaḥyā b. Maʿīn was asked about the hadith of Abū Maʿshar, and he said: "A mistake; al-Aʿmash contradicted him."
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 4031 - Abū Ḥatim al-Rāzī
هذا الحديث بعبد الله بن مسعود عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أشبه يعني على ما رواه الأعمش عن إبراهيم عن علقمة عن عبد الله عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 4031 - 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).
