حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَاضِي ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ ثنا مُبَارَكُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ قَالَ

كُنْتُ أَخْدُمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَوْمًا «يَا رَبِيعَةُ أَلَا تَزَوَّجُ؟» فَقُلْتُ وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَخِدْمُتُكُمْ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ قَالَ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ عَلَيَّ بَعْدَ مَرَّةٍ أُخْرَى فَقُلْتُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ وَاللهِ لَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُصْلِحُنِي مِنِّي فَلَئِنْ قَالَ لِي مَرَّةً أُخْرَى لَأَقُولَنَّ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ لِي «يَا رَبِيعَةُ أَلَا تَزَوَّجُ؟» قُلْتُ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ لِي «ائْتِ فُلَانًا لِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَلْيُزَوِّجُوكَ ابْنَتَهُمْ فُلَانَةَ» قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُهُمْ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أنْ تُزَوِّجُونِي قَالُوا مَرْحَبًا بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَذْهَبُ رَسُولُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَّا لِحَاجَتِهِ قَالَ فَزَوَّجُونِي لَمْ يَسْأَلُونِي بَيِّنَةً فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا كَئِيبٌ فَقَالَ لِي «مَا لَكَ يَا رَبِيعَةُ؟» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتَيْتُ قَوْمًا كِرَامًا فَزَوَّجُونِي وَلَمْ يَسْأَلُونِي بَيِّنَةً وَلَيْسَ عِنْدِي مَا أَصْدَقُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اجْمَعُوا لَهُ وَزْنَ نَوَاةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ» فَجَمَعُوا لِي وَزْنَ نَوَاتَيْنِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَأَتَيْتُهُمْ بِهِ فَقَبِلُوا وَقَالُوا كَثِيرٌ طَيِّبٌ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا كَئِيبٌ فَقَالَ «مَا لَكَ يَا رَبِيعَةُ؟» فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتَيْتُ قَوْمًا كِرَامًا فَقَبِلُوا وَقَالُوا كَثِيرٌ طَيِّبٌ وَلَيْسَ عِنْدِي مَا أُولِمُ فَقَالَ «اجْمَعُوا لَهُ فِي ثَمَنِ كَبْشٍ» فَجَمَعُوا لِي فِي ثَمَنِ كَبْشٍ وَأَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَأُتِي بِمِكْتَلٍ فِيهِ شَعِيرٌ فَأَتَيْتُهُمْ بِهِ فَقَالُوا أَمَّا الْكَبْشُ فَاكْفُونَاهُ أَنْتُمْ وَأَمَّا الشَّعِيرُ فَنَحْنُ نَكْفِيكُمُوهُ قَالَ فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ وَأَصْبَحْتُ فَدَعَوْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ

✧ I used to serve the Prophet ﷺ. One day he said: "O Rabi'ah, will you not marry?" I said: By God, O Messenger of God, serving you is dearer to me. He said: Then he repeated it to me another time, and I said the like of that. He said: I said: By God, the Messenger of God ﷺ knows better what is good for me than I do. If he says it to me another time, I will say: Yes, O Messenger of God. Then he said to me: "O Rabi'ah, will you not marry?" I said: Yes, O Messenger of God. He said to me: "Go to so-and-so, a man of the Ansar, and let them marry you to their daughter so-and-so." He said: So I went to them and said: The Messenger of God ﷺ commands you to marry me to her. They said: Welcome to the Messenger of God ﷺ. The messenger of the Messenger of God ﷺ does not go except for his need. He said: So they married me without asking me for any proof. I came to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and I was distressed. He said to me: "What is the matter with you, O Rabi'ah?" I said: O Messenger of God, I came to a noble people and they married me without asking me for proof, and I have nothing to give as a bridal dower. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "Collect for him the weight of a date stone of gold." They collected for me the weight of two date stones of gold. I brought it to them, and they accepted it and said: "It is much and good." I came to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and I was distressed. He said: "What is the matter with you, O Rabi'ah?" I said: O Messenger of God, I came to a noble people and they accepted it and said: "It is much and good," but I have nothing with which to hold a wedding feast. He said: "Collect for him the price of a ram." They collected for me the price of a ram. The Messenger of God ﷺ sent to his family, and a basket containing barley was brought. I took it to them, and they said: As for the ram, you may take care of it, and as for the barley, we will take care of it for you. He said: So they did that, and in the morning I invited the Messenger of God ﷺ and his companions.
