• قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ وَبِهِ يَقُولُ سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ وَأَهْلُ الْكُوفَةِ

  machine translationHe said: On this topic there is also a narration from ʿĀʾishah. Abū ʿĪsā said: The hadith of Ibn ʿAbbās is a good and sound (ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ) hadith, and some of the people of knowledge act upon this. Sufyān al-Thawrī and the people of Kūfah hold this view. Report a problem

• Zarqānī

  في قول ابن عباس أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم تزوج ميمونة وهو محرم رواه البخاري ومسلم وأصحاب السنن لأن ابن المسيب وغيره وهموه في ذلك فإنه انفرد به وخالفته ميمونة وأبو رافع فرويا أنه نكحها وهو حلال وهو أولى بالقبول لأن ميمونة هي الزوجة وأبو رافع هو السفير بينهما فهما أعرف بالواقعة من ابن عباس لأنه ليس له من التعلق بالقصة ما لهما ولصغره حينئذ عنهما إذ لم يكن في سنهما ولا يقرب منه فإن لم يكن وهما

  machine translationRegarding the statement of Ibn ʿAbbās that the Prophet ﷺ married Maymūnah while he was in a state of iḥrām, which was narrated by al-Bukhārī, Muslim and the authors of the Sunan: Ibn al-Musayyab and others held that he was mistaken in it, for he was alone in reporting it, and Maymūnah and Abū Rāfiʿ contradicted him, narrating that he married her while he was not in iḥrām. Their report is more deserving of acceptance, because Maymūnah is the wife herself and Abū Rāfiʿ was the envoy between them, so the two of them knew the event better than Ibn ʿAbbās, since he did not have the connection to the story that they had, and because he was younger than they were at that time, as he was not of their age nor close to it. And if it was not a mistake on their part, Report a problem

  وهم ابن عباس في تزويج ميمونة وهو محرم وإن كانت خالته ما تزوجها صلى الله عليه وسلم إلا بعدما حل

  machine translationIbn ʿAbbās was mistaken about the marriage to Maymūnah while he was in iḥrām, even though she was his maternal aunt. He ﷺ married her only after he had left the state of iḥrām. Report a problem

  وما أعلم أحدا من الصحابة روى أنه نكحها وهو محرم إلا ابن عباس ورواية من ذكر معارضة لروايته والقلب إلى رواية الجماعة أميل لأن الواحد أقرب إلى الغلط

  machine translationI do not know of any Companion who narrated that he married her while in iḥrām except Ibn ʿAbbās. The reports of those mentioned conflict with his report, and the heart inclines more towards the report of the group, because a single narrator is closer to error. Report a problem
