(9) – باب وَكَالَةِ الْمَرْأَةِ الإِمَامَ فِي النِّكَاحِ
(9) – A woman can depute the ruler in marriage
Sahih al-Bukhari 2310
Narrated Sahl bin Sad:
A woman came to Allah's Messenger ﷺ and said, "O Allah's Messenger! I want to give up myself to you." A man said, "Marry her to me." The Prophet ﷺ said, "We agree to marry her to you with what you know of the Qur'an by heart."
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ وَهَبْتُ لَكَ مِنْ نَفْسِي. فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ زَوِّجْنِيهَا. قَالَ " قَدْ زَوَّجْنَاكَهَا بِمَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ ".
