قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ الزِّبْرِقَانِ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ مِغْوَلٍ، عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ؓ قَالَ:
كُنْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ، فَعَرَّسْنَا ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ، ثُمَّ غَدَوْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَجَعَلَ يَسْأَلُ رَجُلًا رَجُلًا: « أَتَزَوَّجْتَ يَا فُلَانُ ؟ أَتَزَوَّجْتَ يَا فُلَانُ ؟ »، ثُمَّ قَالَ: « تَزَوَّجْتَ يَا كَعْبُ ؟ »، قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ ﷺ: « أَبِكْرًا، أَمْ ثَيِّبًا ؟ »، قُلْتُ: ثَيِّبًا. قَالَ: « فَهَلَّا بِكْرًا تَعَضُّهَا وَتَعَضُّكَ.

✧ I was with the Prophet ﷺ on a journey, and we camped one night. Then we went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the morning. He began asking one man after another: "Did you marry, O so-and-so? Did you marry, O so-and-so?" Then he said, "Did you marry, O Ka'b?" I said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He ﷺ said, "A virgin or a previously married woman?" I said, "A previously married woman." He said, "Why not a virgin, so that you could play with her and she could play with you?"
