أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ
أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ {وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَلَّا تُقْسِطُوا فِي الْيَتَامَى فَانْكِحُوا مَا طَابَ لَكُمْ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ مَثْنَى وَثَلَاثَ وَرُبَاعَ} قَالَتْ «يَا ابْنَ أُخْتِي هَذِهِ الْيَتِيمَةُ تَكُونُ فِي حِجْرِ وَلِيِّهَا تُشَارِكُهُ فِي مَالِهِ فَيُعْجِبُهُ مَالُهَا وَجَمَالُهَا فَيُرِيدُ وَلِيِّهَا أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا بِغَيْرِ أَنْ يُقْسِطَ فِي صَدَاقِهَا فَيُعْطِيَهَا مِثْلَ مَا يُعْطِيَهَا غَيْرُهُ فَنُهُوا أَنْ يَنْكِحُوهُنَّ إِلَّا أَنْ يُقْسِطُوا لَهُنَّ مَهْرًا أَعْلَى سُنَّتِهِنَّ مِنَ الصَّدَاقِ وَأُمِرُوا أَنْ يَنْكِحُوا مَا طَابَ لَهُمْ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ سِوَاهُنَّ» قَالَ عُرْوَةُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ثُمَّ إِنَّ النَّاسَ اسْتَفْتَوْا بَعْدَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ فِيهِمْ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ فِي النِّسَاءِ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِيهِنَّ وَمَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الْكِتَابِ فِي يَتَامَى النِّسَاءِ اللَّاتِي لَا تُؤْتُونَهُنَّ مَا كُتِبَ لَهُنَّ وَتَرْغَبُونَ أَنْ تَنْكِحُوهُنَّ} قَالَتْ «وَالَّذِي ذَكَرَ اللَّهُ أَنَّهُ يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الْكِتَابِ الْآيَةِ الْأُولَى الَّتِي قَالَ فِيهَا {وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَلَّا تُقْسِطُوا فِي الْيَتَامَى فَانْكِحُوا مَا طَابَ لَكُمْ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ} » قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ «وَقَالَ اللَّهُ فِي الْآيَةِ الْأُخْرَى رَغْبَةَ أَحَدُكُمْ عَنْ يَتِيمَتِهِ الَّتِي فِي حِجْرِهِ حِينَ تَكُونُ قَلِيلَةَ الْمَالِ وَالْجَمَالِ فَنُهُوا أَنْ يَنْكِحُوا مَا رَغِبُوا فِي مَالِهَا وَجَمَالِهَا مِنَ النِّسَاءِ إِلَّا بِالْقِسْطِ مِنْ أَجْلِ رَغْبَتِهِمْ عَنْهُنَّ»

✧ He asked 'A'isha about the saying of Allah: {If you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphans, then marry what is good to you from the women, two, three, or four}. She said, "O son of my sister, this is the orphan girl who is in the care of her guardian, sharing his wealth with him. Her wealth and beauty please him, so her guardian wants to marry her without dealing justly in her dower, giving her the like of what someone else would give her. They were forbidden to marry them unless they deal justly with them, giving them the highest dower of their kind. They were commanded to marry other women who were good to them." 'Urwa said: 'A'isha said: Then the people asked about them after this verse, so Allah revealed: {They ask you about women. Say: Allah gives you a ruling about them and what is recited to you in the Book concerning the orphan women to whom you do not give what is written for them and you desire to marry them}. She said, "And what Allah mentioned that is recited to you in the Book is the first verse in which He said: {If you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphans, then marry what is good to you from the women}." 'A'isha said, "And Allah said in the other verse about the desire of one of you for his orphan girl who is in his care when she has little wealth and beauty, so they were forbidden to marry those women whose wealth and beauty they desired except with justice, because of their desire for them."
